2024

A Year of Growth, Wins and More!

A Special Year in Review

It was another big year for KBR!

We reeled in exciting new and repeat contracts and built strong momentum heading into 2025.

We’re on pace to shatter yet another safety record for incident-free days.

We set the bar in sustainability, both in our operations and through the solutions we provide our clients.

We announced the next evolution of KBR — a restructuring that enhances our capabilities and enables us to take advantage of synergies across the business.

We brought LinQuest Corporation into the KBR family and expanded our leading mission tech portfolio.

We were recognized for our continuing work to be a company where all our people can belong, connect and grow.

We made a difference in our communities, both through our time and funds raised for worthy causes.

And we had a lot of fun while doing it!

Through it all, our amazing people were executing with excellence, living our values, and doing work that matters for our customers and the rest of the world.

Here’s a look back at just a few of the highlights from 2024!
