Parsons Corporation (NYSE: PSN) received a $99 million task order from the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory to develop command and control software technologies. The contract includes a five-year plus two-month performance period.

The task order, awarded under the ALLIANT 2 multiple award schedule, supports the Global Application Research, Development, Engineering and Maintenance 2 (GARDEM 2) Command and Control, Space and Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance program. Parsons will provide research, development, engineering, prototyping, integration, testing and demonstration services.

Under the contract, Parsons will continue developing technologies including C2Core Air, C2Core NetOps, National Tactical Data Manager, and Integrated Solutions to Situational Awareness. The work aims to support the U.S. Air Force, Department of War, Intelligence Community and other federal agencies.

The award extends support for the C2Core Air capability across all Air Operations Centers for the next five years. This represents a follow-on to Parsons' current GARDEM contract with the Air Force Research Laboratory.

"Parsons advances the U.S. Air Force mission by integrating technologies, transforming data, and delivering modernized C2 and space‑based ISR capabilities with speed and precision," said Mike Kushin, president of Defense and Intelligence for Parsons.

The Chantilly, Virginia-based company has supported the Department of the Air Force for decades and has been a mission partner to the Air Force Research Laboratory for over 25 years, according to the company's statement.
