CHANTILLY, Va., April 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Parsons Corporation (NYSE:PSN), a leading provider of national security and global infrastructure solutions, today announced the unification of its aviation capabilities into a single, integrated North American Aviation organization. This strategic alignment strengthens the company's One Parsons approach and enhances its ability to deliver technologically enabled aviation solutions quickly at scale, unlocking value for shareholders and customers, and accelerating the company's momentum and ability to further cross-sell opportunities across the rapidly evolving global aviation market.
Parsons' extensive aviation experience spans more than 450 airports worldwide, decades of federal aviation modernization, and major commercial airport programs across North America and the Middle East. The company has supported aviation infrastructure in all 50 U.S. states, delivered airfield, landside, and terminal solutions across six continents, and provided program and construction management services on capital programs collectively valued in the tens of billions of dollars.

This combination of global reach, deep technical expertise, and decades of proven delivery positions Parsons as a trusted partner for aviation authorities, airport operators, and federal agencies seeking resilient, technology‑enabled aviation infrastructure.
