The company holds two significant indefinite delivery vehicles with VISN 8, including a $250 million Veterans Health Administration Integrated General Facilities contract and a Veterans Integrated Service Network 8 Job Order Contract awarded in December 2022, both designated for service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses. This award reflects the contractor's established capability in healthcare infrastructure projects and the VA's sustained confidence in the firm's performance executing complex renovation and construction work across multiple VA medical centers in the southeastern region.
