New Multifamily Housing Construction (except For-Sale Builders)

NAICS 236116 - New Multifamily Housing Construction encompasses the development of multi-unit residential structures that are not intended for immediate sale. This category includes the construction of apartment complexes, condominiums, townhouses, duplexes, and other multi-family housing units. The work typically involves comprehensive construction services including design, site preparation, structural development, infrastructure integration, and finishing of residential buildings with multiple dwelling units.

Federal Contract Awards in this category demonstrate significant investment in multi-family housing construction across various government agencies. The Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) has been a prominent awarding agency, with contract values ranging from $10 million to over $200 million for housing projects at military installations, particularly in Guam. The Indian Health Service (IHS) frequently awards contracts in this category, often targeting staff quarters and housing replacements on tribal lands, with contract values typically between $1 million and $22 million. Most awards are competitively bid without specific set-asides, though some are designated for small businesses, Native American-owned enterprises, or 8(a) program participants. Common performance locations include military bases, national parks, and tribal reservations across the United States and its territories.

Recent Federal Contract Opportunities reflect ongoing needs for multi-family housing construction across federal agencies. The National Park Service has posted several pre-solicitation notices for replacing obsolete housing units at various national parks, with estimated project values between $5-$10 million. The Indian Health Service continues to seek contractors for duplex and staff housing construction, particularly in Arizona, with projects targeting the replacement of aging housing units. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has solicited proposals for temporary lodging facilities, and the U.S. Forest Service has issued a Request for Information regarding mass timber construction materials. These opportunities consistently emphasize the need for modern, efficient, and sustainable multi-unit residential construction across federal properties.
