Artificial Intelligence

We’re harnessing the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) to transform the way government and commercial industries operate and innovate. From streamlining processes to accelerating the decision-chain, we’re leveraging AI to revolutionize the landscape, driving efficiency, and creating new possibilities for our customers.

Empowering Smarter Decision Making In National Security And Defense

We offer AI expertise and subject matter experts (SMEs) that together design, implement, test, evaluate, and deploy AI, ML, and Data Science capabilities into new and existing military and intelligence systems. Our team of AI scientists, engineers, and mission SMEs help organizations in all areas of AI solution implementation.

Strategy Development Data Preparation Development Framework Enhancement Test and Evaluation Field Testing and Integration

Strategy Development

We provide professional consulting services to help the customer determine if and how AI can help solve their problem. We engage with the customer to understand their operational requirements, the data sources and types they need or have access to, their computing resources, and the needs of their users. We help them determine where AI would help and where it can’t. Activities include knowledge elicitation from customer staff, data exploration and analysis, documentation of requirements, solution design, prototyping, and demonstration.

Data Preparation

AI Data Preparation

AI systems require access to large-scale data, and this offering enables customers to develop effective, efficient, and secure capabilities to extract data from their legacy systems and prepare it for use in training, testing, and operating AI systems. We provide professional engineering services to develop on-premises and cloud-hosted, scalable APIs, services, and pipelines providing data acquisition, data preparation, data labeling, and storage. Activities include systems and software engineering, requirements analysis and documentation, quality assurance, compliance, and security.

Development

AI Development

Parsons provides AI expert services in the development of AI and Machine Learning models that meet customer requirements for performance and cost. Model development or training is the central process of encoding of rules (traditional AI) or learning a mathematical model from data (ML) to solve a task. Unlike commercial AI organizations, Parsons starts with a deep understanding of mission constraints and deployment environments, ensuring that applications of AI are successful. Activities include knowledge acquisition, knowledge representation, supervised learning, unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning, prompt engineering, in-context learning, retrieval-augmented generation and other AI solution development techniques.

Framework Enhancement

AI Framework Development And Enhancement

Parsons technical and subject matter experts create new GOTS AI frameworks focused on specific mission use cases that enhance existing government, commercial or open-source frameworks. AI frameworks are government-owned and accredited environments and toolsets for streamlining the development, testing, and deployment of AI software. New capabilities (government and commercial) can be more quickly scanned for cyber vulnerabilities and deployed within the security perimeter of the accredited framework, significantly speeding up development. AI frameworks also allow customers to create best-of-breed ensembles of AI components from multiple vendors or compare the performance of multiple competing approaches, thereby providing key information to decision-makers.

Test and Evaluation

AI Test And Evaluation

While initial testing of AI models is performed during model development, this stage involves more thorough verification and validation with special focus on how these capabilities will work in operational environments. This stress testing under extreme conditions includes understanding system behavior with power outages, degraded network connectivity and high operational loads. Parsons operational and technological subject matter experts provide the needed space, compute, network and data resources and the expertise to identify, evaluate, integrate, test, and deploy mission-critical capabilities. We test and evaluate hardware and software built by Parsons, other government contractors and commercial technology providers including NVIDIA, Intel, Microsoft and DELL.

Field Testing and Integration

Field Testing And Integration

The diverse missions of our customers often include operational environments outside of the office or lab. Testing AI solutions in the field ensures that the models perform under field conditions and with field-generated data. Furthermore, as AI components are often embedded in larger systems, integration testing is also essential. We provide technical services to perform field testing and integration at Parsons or customers’ test ranges or locations. Another advantage of this offering is the ability to collect real/realistic training data from the range, which can be used during AI development, testing, and evaluation. Activities include the development of test plans, integration of components, execution of tests, analysis of results, and recommendations for improvements.
