General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems Hosts Ribbon Cutting for New California Facility

General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems (GD-OTS) announced today that it has opened its new Blue Ravine facility in Folsom, California. This opening was celebrated with an on-site ribbon cutting ceremony on Wednesday, July 27, hosted by Will McDonough, acting senior vice president and general manager of the Precision Systems line of business, and Anthony Flores, general manager and director of operations for Blue Ravine.

The 30,000 square-foot, state-of-the-art facility will enhance all facets of Precision Systems’ integrated controls business, including product development, engineering, production, and program management in support of Strategic Systems and Tactical Missile programs.

McDonough expects the new facility to provide future growth for Precision Systems, the greater Healdsburg-Folsom area, and General Dynamics-OTS. Between both the Healdsburg and Folsom locations, GD-OTS expects the current workforce of approximately 170 employees to grow to more than 200 over the next two years.

“This facility positions GD-OTS for continued growth and supports the increased demand for advanced technologies in the defense sector,” said McDonough. “We are excited to grow our company in this region and see the positive impact this facility makes in the community.”

GD-OTS is dedicated to supporting and strengthening the communities in which its employees live, work and do business, McDonough said.
