The Government Accountability Office (GAO) upheld the Army's $3.1 billion extension of KBR's LOGCAP V contract despite a protest from the Amentum-Parsons joint venture. The extension, which adds five years to the contract for European Command, was deemed justified by GAO, which noted the Army's legitimate concerns regarding transition costs and administrative constraints. The Army had previously awarded LOGCAP contracts in 2019, with KBR responsible for multiple regions including Europe and Afghanistan.
