Parsons Corp. has been selected by the Department of Labor Job Corps Acquisition Services to help with planning, management and oversight of the Job Corps Facilities Program.
Parsons is the sole awardee on the over $115 million ceiling value contract, which includes a base performance period of one year and four 1-year option periods.
“For a decade, our team has supported the Job Corps program at more than 100 centers across all 50 states and Puerto Rico,” said Jon Moretta, president of engineered systems for Parsons.
Parsons will manage and oversee the Job Corps Facilities Program, continuing a contract it has had since 2013.
“Together with the Department of Labor, Parsons has worked to advance the Job Corps’ mission, while taking the opportunity to innovate, including launching drone-based roof inspections to arm DOL with the data they need to efficiently improve their facilities,” Moretta said. “We are thrilled to continue this important work.”
The Job Corps, operational for over 50 years, is the largest residential career training program in the U.S. It aids young people aged 16 to 24 in completing their high school education, training for careers and finding employment.
