A major engineering, procurement and construction company, KBR, said its joint venture with top private security firm Triple Canopy, has won a major contract from the US Army for its Kuwait base operations.

It is a firm fixed-price contract for a period of one year with four option years. For the first year, the total contract is worth around $115 million and the full contract would likely exceed $800 million over the five year life of the contract.

Under this contract, KBR-Triple Canopy JV will be providing logistics, engineering services and installation support services including morale, welfare and recreation (MWR); information management; forms and publications, official mail, and reproduction services; postal operations; healthcare support services; operations, security, fire and emergency services.

The Kuwait Base Operations and Security Support Services (K-BOSSS 2.0) contract will include the Kuwait Area of Responsibility like Camp Arifjan, Camp Buehring, Udairi Range Complex, Camp Patriot on the Kuwait Naval Base (KNB), the Aerial Port of Debarkation (APOD) located at the Kuwait City International Airport (KCIA), and Sea Port of Debarkation (SPOD) located at the Kuwait Port of Shuaiba.

Stuart Bradie, the president and chief executive of KBR, said, "We are very pleased about this opportunity, along with Triple Canopy, to provide base operations and security support services for the Army in Kuwait."

"The KBOSSS 2.0 contract, awarded by US Army Contracting Command - Rock Island, provides us the opportunity to continue our long, successful history providing major overseas installation services support solutions for the US Armed Services.

"This win underscores KBR's reputation as a strategic services integrator providing disciplined delivery, high customer satisfaction and unparalleled performance in austere contingency environments and in their accompanying theater opening locations," he added.
