Byron Bright, president of government solutions at KBR and a 2022 Wash100 Award winner, was featured in the most recent Executive Spotlight interview with ExecutiveBiz on Monday. He talked about the key factors that led to a 27 percent year-over-year growth for KBR in fiscal year 2021 and the initiatives to capitalize on that success. Bright also discussed the company’s core values as well as the recent acquisitions and how they impact the portfolio and technical capabilities of KBR.
Here’s an excerpt from the interview with Bright about a significant growth area for KBR:
“KBR’s commercial business focuses on energy transition, plastics, recycling, and industrials as well as really helping customers transition to make their products cleaner, which is something our employees on the government side want to be part of. I think it’s a significant growth area for KBR as we look at the U.S. government and how they’re starting to think about sustainability.
For the first time, the Department of Defense has established a climate change policy as a top national security priority. With KBR having a commercial energy focus and owning technology in that space, it will really help us become a thought leader for the government and DOD.”
