Parsons’ Technology Development and Fabrication Complex
Pasco, Washington
Providing exceptional service
Parsons’ TDFC meets the requirements of NQA-1, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Section VIII, ISO-9000, and the Voluntary Protection Programs (VPP) Star status. As a one-stop shop that is unique to the industry, we offer an exclusive set of skills that market our capabilities in design, engineering, fabrication, integration, and testing. We have the rare ability to progress from initial concept through production to testing and startup at a single location. With more than 200,000 square feet under one roof and several acres of additional space, Parsons had created one of the largest shops of its kind in the northwest United States. More than 150 engineers, designers, scientists, and skilled union craftworkers work at TDFC, which has the capacity to triple its production.
Forward-thinking and fresh ideas
Parsons’ position as a unique technology development and fabrication provider is further confirmed by our innovative solutions to highly sensitive challenges. For example, we provided technologies and ground-breaking methods for the destruction of chemical agents in containers and munitions for the Department of Defense by using thermal treatment as opposed to incineration. With several patents and technologies, TDFC has provided the industry with viable alternatives that did not exist previously.
A reputation that earns rewards
In the industry of high-end manufacturing and one-stop marketing, an awareness of and exposure to potential customers can be a challenge but Parsons succeeds—earning recognition for our achievements.
