Peraton moving major operation from McLean to Prince George’s

Peraton Inc., a national security contracting and tech company, is moving part of its operation from a Metro-accessible site in McLean to Bowie. The privately held company, one of Greater Washington largest employers, has inked a lease for a little over 18,000 square feet at 16901 Melford Blvd., an office building that’s part of St. John Properties Inc.’s and its partners’ mixed-use Melford Town Center. By December, Peraton will move its Global Health & Financial Solutions division headquarters from its current office in McLean to the new Maryland site.
