Parsons Secures $53M DRTA Contract for Anti-WMD Proliferation Support
The Defense Threat Reduction Agency has awarded Parsons a potential five-year, $53 million task order to support the organization’s counter-weapons of mass destruction proliferation efforts.
Parsons will provide solutions that would help DTRA improve its anti-WMD proliferation capabilities. According to Parsons, its technologies can help customers detect, interdict and recover WMDs and related items at different ports of entry.
Training, equipment and maintenance services will also be provided to DTRA. Work on the contract will support the International Counterproliferation Program and the Proliferation Security Initiative.
The task order was awarded under the Assessment, Exercise, Modeling and Simulation and Support indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract vehicle, Parsons said.
The AEMSS task order is one of several awards Parsons won in support of national security missions.
In late September, the company secured a seven-year, $160 million classified contract from the U.S. Intelligence Community to develop solutions for intelligence applications. Mike Kushin, president of Parsons’ defense and intelligence sector, said work under the contract would support IC’s national security missions worldwide.
In August, the U.S. Cyber Command awarded Parsons a potential five-year, $109 million contract for C4 capabilities development.
