Arnold Air Force Base, Tennessee-based National Aerospace Solutions, a government contractor charged with fulfilling a Test Operations and Sustainment contract for the U.S. Air Force's Arnold Engineering Development Complex, has announced a mass reduction in force in response to a challenge of its follow-on TOS-II contract by a competitor.
The $3.8B Test Operations and Sustainment (TOS) II contract was awarded on Mar 14, 2024, to the challenger, Huntsville, Alabama-based Beyond New Horizons, a joint venture with Astrion (Engineering Research and Consulting) and Fluor Federal Services.
The reduction in force will impact 1,700 employees, including engineers, technicians, and support staff. It is unknown how many employees may be able to transition to the new contractor.
Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life or promises for a bright future. We see good people being laid off through no fault of their own. Just because something bad hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
