Defense Programs

Black & Veatch Special Projects Corp. offers complete consulting, architectural, engineering and construction support services in support of a wide variety of U.S. Military defense programs. For more than 50 years, we have been integral to the deployment and support of some of the most sophisticated weapons systems and defense operations facilities in the military.

Black & Veatch specializes in complex, and often one-of-a-kind programs requiring a high degree of specialist capabilities, including seismic, shielding, blast and anti-terrorism force protection design. We have earned our reputation by delivering high quality, innovative, and cost-effective system products. With in-house resources we also support defense program planning. Site selection studies often include full scope environmental and geotechnical investigations, housing studies, surveying, utility evaluations, commercial power reliability investigations, and full cost estimating to support program funding decisions.

Our Defense Programs service area is active today in several military projects for the DoD, including the U.S. Missile Defense Agency in multiple CONUS and OCONUS locations.
