Professional Aerospace Contractors Association (PACA)

The Professional Aerospace Contractors Association (PACA) of New Mexico was founded in 1984 to promote a healthy and vigorous relationship between the aerospace industry and Government agencies. Since then it has become widely recognized and used by all Government agencies in the area as a forum for interaction with the aerospace, defense, and related national industries. PACA has a robust membership of aerospace, defense, and related professionals, representing virtually every element of the aerospace and defense industry. Members come from large and small businesses, as well as minority, women-owned, veteran-owned, and disadvantaged small businesses. PACA is a 501c(6) non-profit organization incorporated in the State of New Mexico. PACA, a politically non-partisan organization, represents the interests of its membership as a whole and, while doing so, does not advocate or represent special interest groups or a particular member company. It is 100% volunteer operated, and commits all residual funds to science programs and scholarships throughout the state.
