Construction Of Schools

The Product Service Code (PSC) Y1CA covers construction of schools and educational facilities. This category encompasses new construction, renovation, expansion, and infrastructure improvements for primary, secondary, and specialized educational institutions. The scope includes building classrooms, administrative spaces, laboratories, libraries, athletic facilities, and associated site improvements such as utilities, parking, and external learning spaces.

Recent federal contract awards under this PSC demonstrate a diverse range of school construction projects, primarily funded by the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA), Department of the Interior Bureau of Indian Affairs, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). Contract values range from approximately $60,000 to $125 million, with performance periods typically spanning 1-5 years. Most awards are firm fixed-price definitive contracts or delivery orders, frequently awarded to small businesses, tribally-owned firms, and international construction companies. Performance locations include overseas military bases in Germany, Japan, Vietnam, and various locations in the United States, with a notable focus on international educational infrastructure support.

Federal contract opportunities in this PSC category involve comprehensive school construction and transformation projects. Recent solicitations include a design-build project for a primary and secondary school in Romania, a high school replacement at Camp Foster in Okinawa, Japan, and a School Transformation Program in Jordan. These opportunities seek contractors to provide complete design and construction services, including site improvements, utilities, specialized facilities, and sometimes additional infrastructure like sports fields or community spaces. The solicitations predominantly originate from military engineering commands, international development agencies, and educational infrastructure programs, with project locations spanning multiple countries and involving complex, multi-phase construction requirements.
