KBR to Enhance Navy Bases in Africa Under $75M Contract

The Naval Facilities Engineering Command Europe Africa Central has awarded a five-year, $75M recompete contract to KBR for construction and other services at some of its bases in Djibouti, Africa.

The indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract requires KBR to deliver support services, including engineering, design, construction, renovations, repairs, maintenance and demolition, at Camp Lemonnier and the Chabelley Airfield.

The contract award builds on a long-standing base support engagement with U.S. bases in Africa, which dates back to 2002, KBR said.

In particular, the company has been providing base operating support services at Camp Lemonnier since 2013. Throughout its 18-year base support in Africa, KBR has tallied over 25M work hours without a lost-time safety incident.

According to KBR Government Solutions President Byron Bright, a Potomac Officers Club member and 2020 Wash100 winner, the award extends the company’s legacy of delivering trustworthy results and expertise to the Navy.

Headquartered in Houston, Texas, KBR is a 28K-member organization that offers differentiated professional services and solutions across the asset and program life cycle within the government services and technology sectors.

For more than 75 years, the company has been working towards promoting government mission success and military readiness. It also provides solutions for base and contingency operations, asset management, prepositioned stocks and operations maintenance for U.S. and allied forces globally.
