Parsons Government Services Inc., a subsidiary of Parsons Corporation, was awarded a $176.0 million firm fixed-price definitive contract by the Program Executive Office Ammunition on May 26, 2025, to design and construct a new ammonium nitrate solution tank farm at the Holston Army Ammunition Plant in Kingsport, Tennessee. The project, formally known as the ANSOL Tank Farm, represents a significant infrastructure modernization effort for the Department of Defense's ammunition production capabilities. The contract carries a completion deadline of June 20, 2029, and no set-aside designation was utilized in the award process.
The Holston Army Ammunition Plant, a critical facility for the production and storage of military munitions, requires enhanced infrastructure to support evolving operational requirements.

As a global firm specializing in digitally-enabled solutions for national security, Parsons has demonstrated proven capabilities through previous major awards, including related work at the same facility valued at $164.3 million for an Explosive Decomposition Chamber Facility. The contract establishes Parsons as the prime contractor responsible for the full scope of design, engineering, procurement, and construction management for this strategic defense infrastructure project.
