About the company
Absher Construction Co, a for-profit Subchapter S Corporation headquartered in Puyallup, Washington, is a substantial federal military construction prime contractor competing full-and-open on major defense facility projects, with 98% of recent awards issued as prime contracts (39 of 40 awards) and zero set-aside designation across the portfolio. The company specializes in design-build and design-bid-build military facility construction — barracks, airfield infrastructure, shipyard electrical systems, and fuel hydrant systems — for Navy and Army installations across the Pacific Northwest and Hawaii, delivering work under fixed-price delivery orders and definitive contracts valued in the $24 million to $146 million range per task order.
Absher's customer concentration is heavily weighted toward Navy and Army Corps of Engineers installations. The Department of the Navy anchors the portfolio at $1 billion in combined potential value driven by a single $1 billion NAVFAC MACC Construction indefinite delivery contract (valid through September 2031) held with NAVFAC Northwest; three major task orders under this MACC total $201.5 million in combined potential value, including a $146.3 million delivery order for shipyard electrical backbone design changes at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard (completion April 2029), a $31.3 million order for EA-18G fleet facilities work at Naval Air Station Whidbey Island (completion June 2026), and a $23.9 million order for armored fighting vehicle support infrastructure at Naval Base Kitsap (completion October 2027). The Army Corps of Engineers issues awards from its district commands in Honolulu ($605.1 million combined potential value across four awards), Fort Worth ($405 million across two awards), Savannah ($499 million), and Seattle ($118 million across ten awards), with the largest single awards being a $58.4 million consolidated rigging facility at Joint Base Lewis-McChord (completion December 2027) and a $59 million unaccompanied enlisted personnel housing barracks project at JBLM (completion February 2027). Absher also holds a $495 million multiple-award IDIQ for design-build and design-bid-build construction services in Hawaii issued by ENDIST Honolulu (valid through May 2030), though task order volume under that vehicle remains minimal to date.
Activity has accelerated in recent years: one award in 2014, one in 2016, then two in 2023, three in 2024, and five in 2025. Four awards (combined potential value $189.4 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing material recompete exposure. Absher fields an extensive multi-trade subcontractor network across projects, including specialty firms for electrical systems (Safari Electric, Potelco Inc.), mechanical and plumbing (Stirrett-Johnsen Inc., Blythe Mechanical), structural steel (J&B Fabricators, CHG Building Systems), and site utilities; named subcontractors on recent large orders include Designed Groundwater Services for dewatering, Certerra Northwest for special inspection, Blue Mountain Electric, and Pivetta Brothers Construction for demolition and earthwork. The vendor carries one named subsidiary, Vanguard Contractors LLC, a for-profit limited liability company. Absher's award portfolio spans NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction, 20 awards) and 236115 (New Multifamily Housing Construction, 5 awards), with PSC codes concentrated in military troop housing construction and miscellaneous building construction categories.
