The contract vehicle has a shared ceiling value of $981 million across all awardees over two five-year ordering periods.
The NITE-STAR contract establishes an acquisition vehicle designed to accelerate the development of advanced space test and training capabilities that ensure U.S. Space Force Guardians are prepared for engagements against peer adversaries in increasingly complex operational environments. Parsons will support the rapid development, integration, and deployment of innovative space vehicle and ground system technologies across the space test and training enterprise
“Maintaining superiority in the space domain requires continuous innovation, realistic training environments, and advanced test capabilities,” said Mike Kushin, president, Defense and Intelligence for Parsons. “Through this contract vehicle, Parsons will bring together our expertise in space systems, mission engineering, digital technologies, and national security solutions to help the Space Force advance the next generation of test and training capabilities needed to address evolving threats.”
The NITE-STAR initiative is focused on advancing sophisticated space and ground systems and technologies that enable Guardians to operate effectively in a contested space environment. By fostering the development and integration of emerging capabilities, the program helps ensure the Space Force remains prepared for high-stakes operational scenarios while maintaining access to the best available technologies from across the innovation ecosystem.
