Overview
Kansas City roots. Global infrastructure impact.
Black & Veatch has called the Kansas City region home since 1915. From our headquarters in Overland Park, we have grown into a global leader in designing and building critical infrastructure that supports how people live, work and thrive.
While our work spans more than 100 countries, Kansas City remains where our vision and culture are shaped, where many of our people are invested and where our impact is deeply visible.

This effort reflects a broader commitment to strengthening infrastructure, enhancing the visitor experience and supporting economic impact that extends well beyond the event.

Projects and impact in the region
Our work in and around Kansas City reflects the same approach we bring globally — solving complex challenges across power, water and infrastructure systems.
This work connects directly to a broader global impact, with thousands of active projects delivering infrastructure communities rely on every day.
Our Commitment
Investing in the future of Kansas City
Black & Veatch is actively planning for the next chapter of its presence in the region.
We are advancing plans for a new, modern global headquarters and mixed-use campus in Overland Park, designed to create a more collaborative, resource-efficient workplace and a dynamic environment for our professionals and the surrounding community.
This long-term investment reflects a continued commitment to Kansas City — supporting innovation, sustainability and community connection for decades to come.
Committed to Kansas City communities
Our commitment goes beyond infrastructure. It is reflected in how we support the communities where we live and work.
Black & Veatch and our employee-owners invest time, resources and expertise to support long-term community impact — through partnerships, volunteerism and sustained investment.
That includes a decades-long relationship with United Way. For more than 35 years, we have contributed nearly $30 million, helping strengthen programs that support education, health and financial stability in Kansas City and beyond.
But the impact is not just measured in dollars. It is seen in how we show up — supporting organizations, building partnerships and investing in people.
One example is our work with Operation Breakthrough. Through this partnership, we are helping expand access to STEM education and create new opportunities for children and families across Kansas City.
Our work is personal: power for homes, water for cities, data for connections, and environmental solutions for ecosystems so businesses and communities can thrive."
