The cyber security technology provider will expand its operations at the Georgia Cyber Center in Augusta, GA by adding more than 80 new jobs.
Parsons
Corporation, a leading cyber security technology provider, is expanding
its operations at the Georgia Cyber Center in Augusta, GA by adding
more than 80 new jobs.
Parsons is a disruptive technology provider for
the future of global defense, intelligence, and critical infrastructure,
with capabilities across cyber security, missile defense, space,
connected infrastructure, and smart cities.
“Parsons
has long been part of the regional community and we are thrilled to
continue our growth in support of the U.S. Army cyber mission,” said
Chuck Harrington, president and CEO of Parsons Corporation.
“Our leading capabilities help the nation’s warfighter operate at the
tactical edge. Parsons stands ready to support them regardless of the
mission or location.”
The $100 million Georgia Cyber Center
is the single largest investment in a cyber security facility by a
state government to date.
The center is a unique public/private
partnership involving academia, state and federal government, law
enforcement, the U.S. Army and the private sector.
With two adjacent
buildings totaling 332,000 square feet, the Georgia Cyber Center is
located on the Nathan Deal Campus for Innovation and is designed to meet
the growing need for cyber security talent in Georgia, the nation and
across the globe.
In August 2019, Governor Brian P.
Kemp announced Parsons’ initial decision to locate and create 26 new
jobs at the Cyber Center.
This most recent expansion is the result of
Parsons’ growing cyber business as U.S. Army Cyber Command at Fort
Gordon continues to promote the growth of the industry in Augusta.
“We
are thrilled a leading cyber security company like Parsons is seeing
rapid growth at the Georgia Cyber Center in Augusta,” said Gov. Kemp.
“This expansion showcases the Cyber Center’s tremendous impact on the
cyber industry in our state and the CSRA. These additional, high-quality
jobs will only add to Georgia’s resume as a national leader in the
cyber industry and a key national security asset.”
For
decades, Parsons has worked behind the scenes delivering cyber security
services to protect the nation’s network across defense and critical
infrastructure markets.
Their customers include the intelligence
community, federal and state agencies, the Department of Defense, and
commercial enterprises.
“The Development Authority of
Augusta is excited for the further investment by Parsons in the Georgia
Cyber Center and our community,” said Steven Kendrick, chairman of the
Development Authority of Augusta.
“These are the jobs that we have been
targeting as a community for cyber security and Downtown Augusta since
the state’s investment in the Georgia Cyber Center.”
“Parsons is a
tremendous company that will be great for the community, Fort Gordon,
and create jobs for the citizens of Richmond County and the entire MSA.
We are excited to be able to assist them and look forward to helping
them as they continue to expand in our community.”
Georgia Department of Economic Development
(GDEcD) Project Manager Adela Kelley represented the Global Commerce
Division on this project in partnership with the Development Authority
of Augusta.
“Congratulations to Parsons on this
exciting expansion,” said GDEcD Commissioner Pat Wilson.
“Our state made
an important investment in the cyber security industry when we opened
the Georgia Cyber Center, and this type of growth shows how that
investment has paid off. I am looking forward to watching Parsons’
continued success in the years ahead.”
