KBR will primarily perform this work at Naval Air Station (NAS) Patuxent River in Maryland. This indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract’s period of performance begins in August and runs through July 2024.

“KBR fully understands that SAIL is a critical node in the Navy’s testing operations,” said Byron Bright, KBR President, Government Solutions U.S. “We have supported this unique, world-class laboratory since its inception 15 years ago and will continue to work alongside the Navy to make sure systems are tested and ready for the fleet.”
