HOUSTON, July 20,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- KBR (NYSE: KBR) announced today
it has been awarded a contract to provide mission-critical labor at
three locations in the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) area of
operations. The cost-plus contract, through the Air Force Contract
Augmentation Program (AFCAP V), is worth up to $69M and has a base period of two years with an
eight-month option.
Under the terms of the contract, KBR will provide support
personnel at Ali Al Salem Air Base, Kuwait; Prince Sultan Air Base, Saudi Arabia; and Al Dhafra Air Base, UAE,
over the next two and a half years. KBR personnel will accompany
and guide local and other country nationals at U.S. military
facilities throughout these three bases. This contract in
the CENTCOM area of operations expands KBR's portfolio in the
region, where the company already performs base operations support
in Bahrain, United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia.
"Our KBR team has decades of experience within CENTCOM,"
said Byron Bright, KBR Government
Solutions U.S. President. "Our KBR staff will augment the uniformed
military personnel in the region, which can reduce deployment
cycles and allow our customer to place military personnel on other
critical missions. This is yet another example of KBR operating as
The Team Behind the Mission℠ and we're proud to continue our U.S.
military support."
KBR processes hundreds of people per year, but its deployment
processing center has scaled as needed for surge support. Over the
past two decades, KBR has successfully processed more than 88,000
people for 150 contracts/task orders at 70 global locations. KBR is
proud to continue providing operations support to the United States and allied nations around
the world as it has done for more than 25 years.
