- Safran Federal Systems Expands Operations in Rochester, NY with Major Facility Upgrade
Safran Federal Systems, a leading innovator in high-tech positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) products, announced the opening of a 12,000-square-foot expansion at its headquarters located at 320 North Goodman Street in downtown Rochester, New York. Safran Federal Systems Expands Operations in Rochester, NY with Major Facility Upgrade ROCHESTER, N.Y., September 5, 2024 Safran Federal Systems, a leading innovator in high-tech positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) products, announced the opening of a 12,000-square-foot expansion at its headquarters located at 320 North Goodman Street in downtown Rochester, New York. This significant expansion marks the company’s latest milestone in its ongoing commitment to growth, innovation, and community investment. Safran Federal Systems first established its presence in the Village Gate Square within Rochester’s Neighborhood of the Arts (NOTA) in 2018 but its roots in the greater Rochester area go back to 1972. Over the years, the company has progressively expanded its footprint, most recently completing construction on a brand-new second-floor space earlier this year. The newly opened space, dubbed the North Star Operations Center (NOC), will be dedicated to the production and manufacturing of the company’s cutting-edge PNT products, further accelerating Safran’s business operations and enhancing its capability to meet growing market demands. The name 'North Star' pays tribute to its location on North Goodman Street, the historical significance of the North Star in navigation—a key area of expertise for Safran—and the connection to the renowned abolitionist Frederick Douglass, who resided in Rochester for 25 years and published his influential anti-slavery newspaper, The North Star, from the city. To commemorate this exciting development, Safran Federal Systems hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony in partnership with the Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce, featuring company executives, elected officials, and community leaders, including Congressman Joe Morelle (NY-25), Assembly member Harry Bronson (NY-138), Assemblymember Jen Lunsford (NY-135), Rochester Deputy Mayor Michael Burns, Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce President & CEO Robert J. Duffy and Director of Membership Kevin Donahue. “Safran continues to lead the charge in innovative technologies like GPS, inertial navigation, and even designing and maintaining the system of bells and clocks used throughout the United States Capitol,” said Congressman Joe Morelle. “This expansion is a testament to their commitment to our region and their place as a national leader in defense technologies. I’m grateful for our close relationship and I look forward to our continued work together.” "This expansion is not just a testament to our business growth, but also to our deep-rooted commitment to the Rochester community," said Scott Hildebrandt, Vice President, Operations of Safran Federal Systems. "We are thrilled to be creating new jobs and contributing to the economic revitalization of this vibrant neighborhood. Our investment here reflects our confidence in the future of this city and our dedication to being a positive force for change." The new facility underscores Safran Federal Systems' mission to drive innovation while fostering local economic development. The company’s expansion is expected to create dozens of new jobs, providing valuable opportunities for local talent and supporting Rochester’s broader economic landscape. As Safran Federal Systems looks ahead, the company remains focused on its goals of continued growth and innovation. By investing in both its infrastructure and its community, Safran is not only positioning itself for long-term success but also ensuring that the benefits of its growth are shared with the people and neighborhoods of Rochester.

- Succeeding Together: Q&A With VP of Human Resources | SafranFederalSystems
Succeeding Together: Q&A With VP of Human Resources As we celebrate Women’s Month, we take this opportunity to recognize the women who are paving the way for future generations— especially in fields where they have been underrepresented. In this special feature, we sit down with Holly Cicconi-Eggleston, Vice President of Human Resources, where she shares valuable advice on advocating for yourself in the workplace, how we can help cultivate the next generation of women, and what Women's Month means to her. Get ready to grab a pen and paper because this Q&A will leave you with great advice and a different perspective you don't want to miss out on! Women often juggle many responsibilities, both in the workplace and personally. What can companies do to better support women in their work-life balance? "I am not a parent, but I have many friends who are parents or single parents. I cannot imagine the challenges they face every day or the difficult decisions that must be made in balancing family and work. While not every woman is a parent, women who choose to be a parent do have additional responsibilities just strictly because of biology. I read a post on LinkedIn several years back that resonated with me. I cannot recall the author’s name, but the topic stuck. While we strive for work-life balance, and as companies try to offer work-life balance, it is still a challenge for many. The author talked about work-life integration instead of work-life balance. In this regard, it identified that all our needs are different. Parents may need to leave early to get kids off the bus or to take the kids to soccer practice. An employee who doesn’t have kids may have an exercise class that is only offered at noon. Another employee may want to take classes that are only offered in the morning. The point was that whether you are a parent or not, our lives and what we fill our days with vary, and the integration of work and personal is more meaningful than just working less hours within the week. While companies must comply with statutory requirements, I think that shifting the mindset to work-life integration will be beneficial to all employees, not just women." What advice would you give to women who are trying to advocate for themselves—whether it's for promotions, equal pay, or leadership roles? "First and foremost, do it! My experience has been that most women are less likely to do this. While there may be many reasons, it is important to advocate for yourself! While I say this, this is also something that I have had to work on throughout my career. Early in my career, I was hesitant at times for various reasons. I thought I’d be seen as aggressive, ungrateful, impatient – all things that I perceived but were not the reality. As I grew in my career and having experiences that helped to shape who I am, I realized that the only person who can control my destiny is … me. While it certainly helps to have managers to support you in your career, you have to put yourself out there and be your loudest cheerleader. Stay true to yourself, always. If you remain authentic, you will not have regrets." What qualities do you believe will define the next generation of women leaders, and how can we help cultivate them? "This is a great question. I’m not sure that there will be different qualities in the next generation, but I do think that each generation is more courageous . When I look back at what was considered the “norm” when I was in high school versus what I see in today’s youth, I see more openness, acceptance, and perhaps advocacy. It is refreshing to see the growth in each generation and my hope is that this continues in a positive direction. We are still experiencing “first’s” which conveys that while progress has been made, there is still work to do. For the next generation of women leaders, we need to collectively support the advancement of women in fields that have been predominantly held by men. We need to nurture girls at an early age who express interest in STEM, as an example. We need to normalize that different styles of leadership and perspective are not only ok, but encouraged. Ultimately, it doesn’t matter what we want to do, the important consideration is to ensure we have mentors to help guide us in the path forward." What does National Women’s Month mean to you, and how do you hope it continues to evolve in the corporate world? "National Women’s Month is a time to reflect on the past, understand where we are today, and see the road ahead of what still needs to be. My personal belief is that each of us needs to have mentors, and then, when in a position to do so, mentor others. I am fortunate to have had many great mentors in my career – both women and men and have worked diligently to make sure that I give back whenever I can. This helps us to succeed together. In corporate settings, it’s important to highlight accomplishments of the women who came before us – without them, we may not have succeeded. It’s also important to ensure that company practices are inclusive and evolve as the needs of the workforce evolve." Feeling inspired? Explore career opportunities at Safran Federal Systems CAREERS
