Parsons Corporation is an American multinational technology-focused defense, intelligence, and infrastructure engineering firm. Founded in 1944, [2] Parsons is headquartered in Chantilly, Virginia, and serves both government and private sector organizations in more than 30 countries. [3]
Parsons operates in two primary segments: Federal Solutions and Critical Infrastructure. The company provides services in various sectors including cybersecurity, intelligence, defense, transportation, environmental remediation, and urban development. [4] As of 2023, Parsons employs approximately 18,500 professionals worldwide. [1]
Parsons became a public company after its initial public offering (IPO) in 2019. It was included in the Fortune 1000 in 2020 and added to the S&P 400 in 2024. [5] [6]
The company is led by Carey Smith, who serves as Chairwoman, President, and CEO. [7]
Parsons was founded by Ralph M. Parsons in 1944. [2] Emerging at the end of World War II, Parsons' location in Los Angeles, proximity to organizations such as the Naval Air and Missile Test Center, Air Force Western Development Division (WDD) and Space and Missile Systems Organization (SAMSO), [8] and partnership with Aerojet Engineering, [9] enabled it acquire early developmental projects including electronics, instrumentation, ground checkout systems design, and engineering for aircraft, missiles and rocket facilities. [10] [11]
In the early 1950s, Parsons efforts in oil and petrochemical process plants came into focus with design/build efforts supporting both Shell and Gulf Oil in Texas. [12] [13] Parsons delivered systems that would also recover sulfur products for later use in industrial processes. Facilities came on line in 1952. [14]
In 1961, Parsons founded the Ralph M. Parsons Foundation. The foundation became entirely independent from the company in 1974. [15] [16] Also in 1974, Parsons opened the first part of its headquarters in Pasadena. [17]
In 1985, Parsons finalized an Employee Stock Ownership Program (ESOP), allocating shares in proportion to employees’ salaries. [18] The ESOP program continues today. [19]
Parsons interest in bridge projects grew through the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s leveraging credentials enabled by acquisition of firms including DeLeuw, Cather, and Company in 1977 [20] and Steinman, Boynton, Gronquist and Birdsall (SBGB) in 1988. [21] These acquisitions brought experience and pedigree for design and/or refurbishment of iconic bridge structures including the Mackinac Bridge (Steinman, 1957), [22] Tagus River Bridge, [23] and Brooklyn Bridge. [24] Parsons continues to provide inspection, maintenance, and upgrades for these bridges to this day. [25] [26] The company has also secured numerous design, design-build, and/or construction management jobs delivering new bridges such as the Tacoma Narrows Bridge (2007), [27] John James Audubon Bridge, [28] Windsor-Detroit (Gordie Howe) Bridge, [29] and the Don Welge Memorial Bridge. [30]
In April 1996, Parsons CEO at the time, Leonard Pieroni, was killed in a U.S. Air Force plane crash in the Balkans along with U.S. Commerce Secretary Ron Brown. [31]
In October 2004, Parsons sold its hydrocarbons focused business, Parsons E&C Inc, to Australian firm Worley. [32]
In 2012, Parsons developed the logistics strategy for movement of the Space Shuttle Endeavour from Los Angeles International Airport to the California Science Center near downtown. The effort was completed at no cost to NASA or the science center and was delivered by a team of local consultants that contributed expertise and resources for the effort. [33] The activity brought to a close Parsons support for the Space Shuttle program; efforts that began in 1970 when NASA hired Parsons to perform an independent evaluation of facilities options for the Space Transportation System. [34]
In late February 2019, Parsons announced the move of its headquarters from Pasadena, California to Centreville, Virginia. [35]
On May 8, 2019, Parsons executed an Initial Public Offering of approximately $500 million on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol PSN. [36] When the transaction was conducted, Parsons returned to public status after leaving 35 years before to become a private, employed-owned company. [37]
On September 1, 2023, Parsons announced the move of its headquarters to Chantilly, VA. [1]
Discussing the company's business outlook in February 2024, CEO Carey Smith stated that the company believes it will continue to see strong demand for its solutions, including cyber, electronic warfare, signals collection, space, missile defense and critical Infrastructure protection given world-wide geopolitical outlook. [38] [39]
1940s
Less than 2 months after Parsons was founded, they were hired to provide turnkey engineering, management, and oil well drilling services to the great divide in Colorado, United States.
In 1948, Parsons began work to develop naval missile facilities at Point Mugu Missile facility. [40] Also in 1948, the Atomic Energy Commission created the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory reactor so that it could conduct advanced nuclear experiments with civilian and military reactors. Parsons designed all facilities for test and support operations—including the largest cast-in-place concrete arch ever poured, a span of 3,000 feet. [41]

[53] In 1964, Parsons created a technical and economic blueprint for the North American Water and Power Alliance (NAWAPA), specifically in the United States, Canada and Mexico. The plan outlined concepts to build an integrated system of dams, channels, tunnels, reservoirs, hydroelectric plants, and pumping stations. The plan ultimately did not move forward due to environmental concerns and cost. [54] In 1966, Parsons has served as general engineering consultant for the DC Washington Metro in Washington, D.C., which is a $11 billion, 103-mile rapid transit rail system connecting Washington, D.C., to its many suburbs. [55]
In 1968, Parsons designed and constructed the entire Honolulu Airport in Honolulu, Hawaii (which is now referred to as the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport), including a 12,000-foot runway on an offshore reef to minimize noise in Honolulu. [56] The runway is still used today. In 1968, Parsons began work to upgrade the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) by providing plans, specifications, and standards to upgrade air traffic controls in 19 facilities. [57] Today, Parsons provides 24/7/365 technical support services in all nine FAA regions and two specialized FAA centers. Again in 2001, Parsons was the prime contractor to implement modernization plans for the national airspace system. [58]
1970s
In 1970, Parsons was hired by BP and ExxonMobil to perform engineering studies in Alaska to determine if the company could overcome the technical and logistical engineering challenges in Arctic oil production. [59] In 1971, Parsons and Union Oil Co. of California demonstrated an improved sulfur recovery process at Union's Los Angeles pilot refinery plant. Based on the proven capacity to extract over 99% of the sulfur contained in the waste gases, the company was contracted to construct a full scale plant to harvest sulfur for industrial uses and reduce pollution. [60]
Following arctic oil production study, Parsons was hired in 1974 as managing contractor for all oil and gas facilities for BP and Exxon's east side portion of Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. [59] Also in 1974, Parsons provided modernization and construction program services for the new construction on more than 100 major U.S. postal installations. [61] Parsons continues to provide services for the USPS today. [62] [63]

[96] The final munition was destroyed in July 2023. [97] In 2004, Parsons served as project manager to cleanup and restore Onondaga Lake in New York. [98]
Also in 2004, a $29.5 million contract was given to both Parsons and Gilbert Southern/Massman Construction to redo a portion of the Escambia Bay Bridge near Pensacola, FL after Hurricane Ivan made landfall and knocked off 58 spans of the original bridge and misaligned 66 other spans. Traffic destined for the bridge was rerouted onto US 90 (exit 17 on I-10) for 2 months while construction was taking place, which caused severe traffic jams. The westbound bridge opened to traffic on October 4, six days ahead of schedule, while the eastbound lanes opened to traffic on November 20, 66 days after Ivan made landfall and 27 days ahead of schedule. Both contractors received $1.5 million in bonuses for the early completion. [99] [100]
In addition in 2004, Parsons was awarded a contract for a $243 million project to build 150 healthcare centers in Iraq in March 2004. By March 2006, $186 million had been spent, with six centers complete and accepted by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE);, 135 centers only partly complete; and one was reassigned to another contractor. USACE progressively terminated the contract from September 2005 to March 2006, eventually requiring Parsons to complete a total of 20 centers, with the others to be completed by other contractors. The estimated cost for the completion of the other 121 centers was $36 million. [101] This led to Parsons and USACE disputing the degree to which the final 20 centers were completed. [102] A report by the Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction cited problems, including "high turnover among government personnel... directions... given without agreement from the contractor... program managers' responsiveness to contractor communications, cost and time reporting, administration and quality assurance". [102]
