Huntsville, AL – Davidson Technologies, Inc. officially broke ground today in a ceremony celebrating the construction of their new global headquarters at Huntsville’s Redstone Gateway. Davidson’s Leadership Team was joined by representatives from the Huntsville/Madison County Chamber of Commerce and guest speakers, including Huntsville Mayor Tommy Battle; Madison County Commission Chairman, Mac McCutcheon; District 5 Councilman and Huntsville City Council President, John Meredith, and James Lomax, State Representative and VP of Asset Management & Leasing for Corporate Office Properties Trust (COPT.)
“This is a very fitting progression for this company coming from being here and being a local homegrown company, and then growing into Redstone Gateway is a great thing for our community, for the city of Huntsville and for all north Alabama,” said Huntsville Mayor Tommy Battle.
The new, single-tenant building will modernize Davidson’s facilities, increase proximity to their customers, and provide additional capabilities. The 46,000 SF headquarters will allow for the security necessary for our customers and Warfighters.
“Our new global headquarters will help to support our mission and company goals. We’re extremely excited about our future in the new Davidson Technologies facility,” says Davidson’s CEO, MG John W. Holly (USA, Ret.).

Brasfield & Gorrie is the general contractor for the project. “Redstone Gateway remains a hub for Huntsville business, and we’re honored to have worked on projects on the campus since 2011,” said Sara Beth Wilcox, vice president and division manager at Brasfield & Gorrie. “We’ll use tilt-up construction methods, an efficient construction method appropriate for a business like Davidson, which is also committed to innovation in its work.”
