The U.S. Navy's Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) awarded a $872,557.68 firm fixed-price delivery order to Leading TECH Construction CO. on January 26, 2016, for the construction of search houses at Explosive Ordnance Disposal Mobile Unit 5 (EODMU-5) in Talo'fo'fo, Guam. This delivery order, designated N40192-15-D-2836-0004, is issued under the Guam 8(a) Construction 2015-2019 master indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract and carries a competitive 8(a) small business set-aside designation. The work is scheduled for completion by September 22, 2016, and represents a deductive modification to the parent contract vehicle.
The contract supports military operational readiness at a critical Pacific defense facility by providing specialized construction infrastructure for EODMU-5, which manages explosive ordnance disposal operations across the region. NAVFAC's mission encompasses real property planning, design, and construction management for Department of Defense installations worldwide, making this contract part of the broader infrastructure sustainment efforts at Andersen Air Force Base and Naval Base Guam. The award to Leading TECH Construction CO., a certified 8(a) contractor, demonstrates the government's commitment to leveraging small business participation in defense construction projects while maintaining essential military capabilities in the Indo-Pacific region.
