On September 29, Parsons Corporation announced that the company was selected by Army Contracting Command – Rock Island, in coordination with Air Force Civil Engineering Center to provide comprehensive Owner’s Advisor support for the progressive design-build (PDB) development of the U.S. Space Command’s (USSPACECOM) new headquarters at Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama.
The initial $85 million agreement consists of a 75-month performance period and represents new work for the company and capitalizes on the synergies of Parsons’ Federal Solutions and Critical Infrastructure portfolio. The agreement will oversee one of the Department of War’s largest PDB initiatives to date and is one of the Air Force’s first uses of an Owner’s Advisor delivery approach and will set an example for future use of the Owner’s Advisor delivery approach.
“U.S. Space Command’s mission demands infrastructure that is as resilient, secure, and operationally ready as the warfighters it supports,” said Martin Boson, president of Engineered Systems for Parsons. “As a trusted provider of the world’s most complex defense and critical infrastructure programs, Parsons delivers the program management, technical expertise, and mission-focused execution necessary to transform critical requirements into lasting capability. We look forward to delivering a world-class command and control facility that equips U.S. Space Command with the infrastructure needed to integrate military space power into multi-domain global operations to defend national interests and defeat threats.”
Under this OTA agreement, Parsons will serve as the Owner’s Advisor for the development of USSPACECOM’s new headquarters, providing comprehensive program and construction management support during planning, design, construction, and operationalization. The company will oversee project execution on behalf of the government, helping manage scope, cost, schedule, quality, and risk for the 950,000-square-foot campus. The complex will include a command-and-control facility, fusion center, visitor control center, and supporting infrastructure designed to enable 24/7 operations in support of USSPACECOM’s national security mission.
