CHANTILLY, Va., Aug. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Parsons Corporation (NYSE: PSN) announced today that it was awarded the Middle East 3 (ME3) Region and Africa 2 Region task orders under the U.S. Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration's (NNSA) Counter Nuclear Smuggling Systems Deployment (CNSSD) contract.
The Middle East Region 3 and Africa 2 Region task orders support counter-nuclear smuggling initiatives across 25 countries, including design and deployment in both regions. The two awards include a base period through July 2027, with four option periods extending through July 2031. This brings Parsons’ total CNSSD portfolio to seven task orders with approximately $90 million in awarded value to date, reinforcing the company’s position as a leading provider of counter-nuclear smuggling solutions worldwide.
"The threat of nuclear and radiological smuggling remains a critical global security challenge that requires strong international partnerships and proven technical expertise," said Martin Boson, president of Engineered Systems for Parsons. "These awards reflect our longstanding commitment to advancing U.S. nonproliferation objectives and national security by equipping partner nations with the technologies and capabilities needed to detect and deter illicit trafficking activities. We are proud to continue supporting NNSA's mission across strategically important regions around the world."
In March 2024, NNSA awarded Parsons one of two positions on the $1 billion ceiling-value CNSSD MATOC, based on its proven experience both in the field and in developing innovative approaches to security solutions. Through the CNSSD contract, Parsons helps partner nations strengthen their ability to detect, disrupt, and investigate the illicit trafficking of radioactive and nuclear materials through end-to-end solutions, including project management, engineering, procurement, system design, deployment, logistics, integration, and communications.
Parsons leverages decades of experience in nuclear security, systems integration, and international program delivery to help governments detect, disrupt, and interdict the illicit trafficking of radioactive and nuclear materials.
