Parsons wins $350M Seabed to Space ISR contract and joins $981M Space Force IDIQ

Parsons Corporation has secured several major contracts, including a $350 million Seabed to Space ISR contract with Naval Information Warfare Center Pacific and a position on the $981 million NITE-STAR space test and training contract with the US Space Force. The company also won new aviation and defence contracts. The awards expand Parsons' capabilities across space, cyber, electromagnetic warfare, and critical infrastructure. The Seabed to Space ISR contract particularly strengthens the company's multi-domain intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities. Despite these wins, investors face near-term risks from dependence on large federal contracts and potential budget disruptions. Parsons' narrative projects $7.2 billion revenue and $407.1 million earnings by 2029, requiring 4.7% annual revenue growth. Some analysts remain cautious, forecasting lower revenue and earnings figures.

Anduril wants both halves of $1.5 DHS counter-UAS contract.

Anduril wants both halves of $1.5 DHS counter-UAS contract. Stay Connected Find opportunities - and win them. By Nick Wakeman , Editor-in-Chief, Washington Technology August 14, 2026 02:04 PM ET The company secured an award for the services track, but argues it should have also won a spot on the hardware/software portion. Anduril is unhappy that it did not land spots in both portions of a $1.5 billion Homeland Security Department contract for counter-unmanned aircraft systems. The company won a position as one of the comprehensive service providers in track two, but did not receive an award in track one for hardware/software and ancillary services. Anduril is challenging DHS' evaluation of its proposal and argues that it should have received awards for both tracks of the five-year C-UAS vehicle, awarded earlier this month. Track one winners are BAE Systems, CACI International, Dedreone Defense, D-Fend Solutions, EMS Defense Technologies, Fortem Technologies and Leidos. Anduril's competitors in track two are Astrion, BAE, Booz Allen Hamilton, General Dynamics IT, Leidos and Parsons Corp. DHS received 57 offers for track one and 47 for track two. Bidders could pursue both tracks if they wanted to. Anduril filed its protest on Aug. 12. A Government Accountability Office decision is due by Nov. 20.
