Thanks to Parsons’ global network of resources, we have the power to combine technology with unparalleled quality and control. We combine this ability with our unwavering commitment to safety to accomplish projects of any scale, under any conditions. Our history of working in the Middle East dates back to 1953. This experience has equipped us with a broad base of skill sets to address all requirements for large programs, including utilities, roads, bridges, transit systems, water systems, sewer systems, waste management facilities, electrical distribution systems, embassies, universities, government buildings, housing, and other facilities in large mixed-use projects worth billions of dollars. Our detailed knowledge and experience is critical to rapidly implement projects in compliance with local regulations, design standards, and construction practices. Parsons is part of the business community, and we intend to stay active in the region. We are excited by the prospects and we are committed to be a part of the next phase of sustainable growth in the Middle East.
