Ciaccio as President of the National Aerospace Solutions (NAS) sector, where he will lead the Federal Aviation Administration’s Brand New Air Traffic Control Systems program (BNATCS).

“Justin is exactly the kind of leader this mission demands. He has spent his career delivering on the toughest problems in government, where the stakes are high, the technology and innovation are paramount, and the customer is counting on you to get it right every single time,” said Peraton CEO and Chairman Steve Schorer. “His deep domain expertise, track record of building high-performing teams, and relentless focus on mission outcomes make him uniquely qualified to lead the National Aerospace Solutions sector and its pinnacle program, BNATCS. I am confident that Justin will not only meet the moment with this transformative Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) program, he will also reinforce Peraton’s long-term commitment to our customers.”

Ciaccio brings more than two decades of experience leading large-scale, high-profile programs across defense, intelligence, civil, and public safety sectors. He has a distinguished record, having overseen large organizations and managed multi-billion-dollar contracts spanning some of the nation’s most demanding operational environments. Most recently, he has served as Vice President and General Manager at Peraton, where he directed a $500 million annual revenue portfolio and led a workforce of more than 2,000 professionals.

“I am deeply committed to the BNATCS program, which is foundational to modernizing America’s national airspace and setting a global standard for innovation, efficiency and safety,” Ciaccio said. “Those who depend on it – from air traffic controllers to the traveling public to the airline industry – deserve nothing less than flawless execution. I’ve spent my career building teams and systems that perform when it matters most, and I look forward to bringing that same standard of excellence, accountability, and customer focus to this critical effort.”
