KBR, Inc. announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Honeywell Technology Solutions, Inc. (HTSI), a leading professional, technical and mission support services organization providing an array of mission-critical services and customized solutions throughout the world primarily to U.S. government agencies.
"This acquisition is in-line with our previously announced strategy to expand our government service offerings into higher end technical services that tend to carry increased margins and reduced levels of risk," said Stuart Bradie, President and CEO of KBR, Inc.
According to the Department of Defense (DoD), the contractor is being awarded $8,291,844 for a previously issued basic ordering agreement to procure spares, support equipment, and support services for the ScanEagle Unmanned Aircraft System operations for the government of Iraq intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance services program.
Work will be performed in Baghdad, Iraq (90 percent); and Bingen, Washington (10 percent), and is expected to be completed in August 2017.
