NAVFAC SW Wet Utilities Construction 2010-2015

The Department of the Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command established this Master IDIQ for new construction, renovation, alteration, and repairs of wet utilities infrastructure across Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, and Utah on March 31, 2010; ordering closed on March 30, 2015. The vehicle is no longer active—the ordering period ended over 11 years ago, and all 84 task orders have been awarded and obligated, totaling $220.8 million against a $300 million shared ceiling.

The contract procured design-build and fully designed wet utilities projects at Navy and Marine Corps installations, including water and potable water lines, mains, wells, pumping stations, treatment plants, storage tanks, sewer and stormwater infrastructure, and related repairs. Recent task orders exemplified the scope: $23.6 million for replacement of waste drain piping at Naval Medical Center San Diego; $23.1 million for north area wastewater conveyance at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton; $22.8 million for reclaimed water conveyance at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton; and $6.8 million for sewer line replacement at Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego.

Reyes Construction, Inc. dominated the vehicle, capturing 18 orders valued at $65.2 million—roughly 30 percent of combined potential value. HAL Hays Construction, Inc. followed with 20 orders at $38.4 million. Orion Construction Corporation, RQ / Filanc JV I, and EPC Corporation held 11, 11, and 13 orders respectively, accounting for the remaining concentration. These five firms held 87 percent of all task orders and 92 percent of potential value; a small number of additional contractors filled the long tail.

Ordering was heavily concentrated within the Navy and Marine Corps. The Department of the Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command and United States Marine Corps each awarded 32 orders, accounting for $85.1 million and $83.3 million respectively—roughly 76 percent of vehicle activity. The Department of the Navy Installations Command, United States Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center, and Pacific Fleet Forces placed the remaining 16 orders for roughly 12 percent combined value.

Nearly all awards were unrestricted; 82 of 84 orders (98 percent) carried no set-aside, with only two small business orders placed.

Task-order values ranged widely, from under $100,000 for minor repairs to over $23 million for major infrastructure projects. Most orders were firm-fixed-price with durations of 12 to 36 months. The vehicle generated steady ordering momentum, peaking at 26 orders in 2014 before closure.
