Abbott General Construction, Inc. was awarded a firm fixed-price delivery order valued at $265,020 by the U.S. Air Force's Air Combat Command to renovate latrines at Building 2418 on Fort Eustis in Newport News, Virginia. The contract, awarded on September 24, 2015, carries an ultimate completion date of July 15, 2016. This delivery order was set aside for competition under the 8(a) Business Development Program, which provides contracting opportunities for small disadvantaged businesses certified by the Small Business Administration.
Fort Eustis, located in southeastern Virginia, serves as a significant installation for the Department of Defense and hosts various military operations. The latrine renovation project represents maintenance and infrastructure improvements necessary to support the installation's operational readiness and personnel facilities. As a delivery order under what is likely a larger indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract vehicle, this award demonstrates the Air Force's commitment to maintaining critical facility infrastructure while supporting small business economic development objectives through the 8(a) program.
