About

Us

We deliver science, technology and engineering solutions to governments and companies around the world.

We are a company of innovators, thinkers, creators, explorers, volunteers and dreamers. But we all share one goal: to improve the world responsibly and safely.

Here are a few examples of the amazing solutions our people deliver.

Science

  • KBR experts are helping shape the future of space exploration and habitability. We currently select, train, support and monitor astronauts for NASA, and our teams of scientists are helping identify and mitigate the effects of zero gravity on the human body over extended periods of time.

  • We have developed an extensive portfolio of catalysts (substances used to speed up chemical reactions while lowering energy) that, when used with our proprietary technology solutions, are both more environmentally friendly and safer to handle than competitors’.

Technology

  • KBR has deployed sustainable technology at military facilities around the world, creating greater energy efficiency and reducing costs and overall carbon emissions. These include solar and wind lights in the Middle East, eco-friendly electric vehicles in Africa, and smart meter solutions for the U.S. Navy.

  • We have a suite of green technologies that help customers decarbonize their assets and/or promote circular economy, including a revolutionary plastics recycling technology that can break down waste plastics into energy feedstock and other usable products.

Engineering

  • KBR has extensive technical and commercial knowledge across the carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) value chain and has been a part of some of the most notable global CCUS projects, including the world’s largest carbon capture and storage site, capable of extracting three to four metric tons of CO2 per year.

  • KBR software engineers have developed numerous cutting-edge digitalisation solutions for the defense and industrials sectors. These include KBR InSite℠, a cloud-based virtual plant monitoring/advisory service, and handheld and/or wearable augmented reality demonstrators that support various training systems and virtual training solutions, such as for Australia’s massive landing helicopter dock ships.

Extending Our Reach

Delivering innovative engineering and technology solutions to make lives safe, secure, sustainable, and affordable

With over 1000 employees, we work from a network of nine UK and four Australian locations. Our people apply their expertise to develop, enhance and protect our clients' critical assets, systems and processes.

In an uncertain world, we contribute to national security in a huge number of ways. We help make sure that power is generated and distributed to everyone who needs it. We support moving people and goods around and between the big cities of an increasingly urbanised society. We work to make the world a more sustainable place. We ensure governments save time and money when public spending globally is under huge pressure. And we help our clients wrestle with the challenges and opportunities of an ever-accelerating digital revolution.

Our people use their combined strengths to deliver technical solutions to some of the most challenging problems out there. Sometimes these challenges are difficult technical issues, and sometimes they are difficult because of the environment our clients operate in. Our great strength is our ability to rise to these challenges and deliver.

A catalyst for change

Harmonic provides enterprise-wide change management, business winning and project delivery services to some of the UK's largest and most successful businesses in sectors including defence, nuclear and rail. We achieve this through close, long-term customer relationships that are underpinned by mutual trust and an ability to drive profitable and sustainable growth for our customers.

We blend programme, change, and systems capabilities with deep subject matter knowledge and a proven approach to improvement in complex environments. We embed our people in joint teams until the agreed improvement is achieved, making a disproportionate impact by supporting customers to pursue the right opportunities in the best way, and to deliver their contracts more effectively and profitably.

Our approach to integrating with customers radically improves effectiveness, which means that we are confident in taking on significant challenges and linking our remuneration to results.
