KBR

KBR provides science, technology, engineering and mission services through Mission Technology Solutions and Sustainable Technology Solutions.

About KBR

KBR's government-facing work supports national security, cybersecurity, space exploration and operational missions, while the wider group also serves energy and industrial markets. Defense activities combine technical expertise with integration and support services for U.S. and allied customers. Corporate headquarters is in Houston, Texas, and the company publishes a substantial international office network. KBR should be evaluated as a technical-services and engineering contractor rather than only as a weapons manufacturer. Company revenue, overseas defense awards and shared contract-vehicle ceilings are different measures from money obligated by the U.S. Department of Defense. As announced in September 2026, the Mission Technology Solutions business is expected to separate as Trinzic in January 2027, subject to approvals; Sustainable Technology Solutions would retain the KBR name.
