Geographic presence
Booz Allen Hamilton’s geographic footprint is centered in the United States, with operations in the U.S. and select global regions. The company reports working in 23 countries. Approximately 98% of revenue in each of fiscal 2024–2026 came from contracts with U.S. government agencies and departments, regardless of where the work was performed; this is a customer-contract measure, not a geographic revenue breakdown.[18][6] The company does not report revenue by country or region in the cited filing.[19]
At March 31, 2026, the company had approximately 31,500 employees across the U.S. and select global regions, including about 28,800 customer staff. It cited 32 major business centers and more than 20 engineering, manufacturing and R&D facilities, but did not give an employee split by country or region.[6] Its headquarters is in McLean, Virginia, and it leases facilities throughout North America and a limited number overseas. Named principal U.S. offices include Annapolis Junction, Washington, D.C., Chantilly, Laurel, Panama City Beach, Arlington, Bethesda, Alexandria and Colorado Springs.[20]

Business segments
Booz Allen Hamilton reports one operating and reportable segment, managed as a single consolidated business; it does not disclose revenue by separate operating segments. Its fiscal year ends March 31, and the latest reported year is FY2026, ended March 31, 2026.[23][24]
As an alternative view of its business mix—not a segmentation into reportable operating segments—the company categorizes revenue by customer type.
