Press Release

HOUSTON (September 24, 2018) KBR, Inc. (NYSE: KBR) announced today that its global government services business, KBRwyle, has won a seat on the $28 billion Department of Defense Information Analysis Center Multiple Award Contract (IAC MAC).

KBRwyle was one of 15 prime contractors selected by the Air Force Installation Contracting Agency (AFICA) for the Unrestricted/Full and Open Competition pool (pool 1) on this nine-year indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract.

Under this contract, KBRwyle will offer its research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E) expertise to meet urgent U.S. defense needs. KBRwyle will have the opportunity to bid on task orders focused on a wide breadth of technical areas, including weapons systems, military sensing, cybersecurity, C4ISR, sustainment and systems engineering, autonomous systems, modeling and simulation, biometrics, and critical infrastructure protection.

"This contract is a strategic win for both KBRwyle and our customers", said Stuart Bradie, KBR President and CEO. "For over 13 years, we have used IAC contracts to quickly deploy solutions to government customers that optimize their systems' performance and ensure mission success."

"IAC MAC will allow us to continue this important work and bring rapidly deployable solutions to new federal government customers," Bradie continued.

KBRwyle has supported the mission of the DoD research and development community through various predecessor DoD IAC contracts since 2005. Most recently, these include the Defense Systems Technical Area Task, Cyber Security and Information Systems Technical Area Task, and Homeland Defense and Security Technical Area Task Contracts. KBRwyle is one of DoD IAC's leading IAC prime contractors, having successfully provided over $3 billion in solutions to a variety of DoD customers.

Estimated revenue associated with task orders awarded under this contract will be booked into backlog of unfilled orders for KBR's Government Services business segment as they are awarded.
