KBR has received a $63.9M task order from the Department of Defense Test Resource Management Center to develop interoperability solutions to expand the U.S. military’s testing and training capabilities, the company announced on Monday.
“KBR is proud of our nearly two decades of TENA support, promoting range interoperability and flexibility for the U.S. military,” said Byron Bright, KBR President, Government Solutions U.S. and 2020 Wash100 Award recipient. “KBR will continue to use its expertise to develop innovative solutions to fortify and grow the DoD’s T&E capabilities.”
KBR will ensure mission success for customers on land, at sea, in the air, and in space and cyberspace. It has operational and developmental T&E processes designed for corporate, government and military organizations. The company has extensive experience evaluating complex systems and technologies ranging from combat vehicles and high-performance aircraft to weapons systems and orbital launch platforms.
Under the task order, KBR will utilize its test and evaluation (T&E) expertise to add and expand additional test range sites into the DoD’s T&E infrastructure. The company’s efforts will streamline and enhance the integration of test and training capabilities for DoD weapons systems.
In addition, KBR’s help develop hardware and software solutions that address the military’s T&E needs. KBR will also improve range interoperability and effective reuse of resources to increase the department’s capabilities while reducing development, operation and maintenance costs for test ranges.
KBR’s task order will cement the partnership between the Test and Training Enabling Architecture Software Development Activity (TENA-SDA) and Joint Mission Environment Test Capability (JMETC) to expand connectivity and develop enhanced capabilities for test and training facilities.
KBR was awarded this task order under the cost-plus-fixed/firm-fixed fee One Acquisition Solution for Integrated Services (OASIS) contract which KBR won a seat on in 2014. This is a one-year task order with four option periods.
