Alfaro General Engineering

Alfaro General Engineering, an SBA 8(a) certified, minority-owned, Hispanic American-owned, and veteran-owned small disadvantaged business headquartered in Rocklin, California, operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of awards) delivering construction, infrastructure renovation, and facilities maintenance services to federal agencies. The company competes predominantly under 8(a) sole source set-asides, though several delivery orders under its Navy IDCs carry no set-aside designation.

The company's concrete capability portfolio centers on specialized construction and facilities support: water line replacement, roof repairs and replacements, HVAC system installation and replacement, lift station renovation, bridge abutment retrofit and replacement, water storage tank cleaning and inspection, and fire station drainage improvements. Representative work includes a $2.51 million contract from the U.S. Forest Service for bridge replacement (North Fork Headquarters and Middle Miami bridges, Sierra National Forest, completion June 2026), a $1.65 million 8(a) sole source definitive contract from Navy Installations Command for lift station renovation at Naval Air Station Fallon (completion March 2027), a $1.04 million 8(a) sole source contract from the National Park Service for water storage tank cleaning and repair at Yosemite National Park (completion April 2026), and a $715 thousand 8(a) sole source contract from the U.S. Forest Service for the Beaver Creek Bridge Abutment Retrofit in Willows, California (completion August 2025).

Customer concentration is extreme and Navy-centric. The top two customer organizations — Department of the Navy Installations Command and Department of the Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command — account for 73% of recent awards (21 of 41 total) and control 92% of the combined potential value ($22.1 million of $37.8 million). The Department of Agriculture Forest Service (Pacific Southwest Region) places 4 awards worth $6.1 million, and the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Sacramento contributes 3 awards worth $4.6 million. All other customer agencies represent scattered small awards.

Vehicle position centers on two $4.5 million Navy IDCs with Naval Facilities Engineering Command, one running through June 2025 and a recently renewed one extending through April 2028. The company has issued 12 task orders under the most recent IDC (N6247322D2401, $4 million combined value), 7 under an earlier vehicle (N6247319D3207, $3.9 million), and 3 under a third IDC (N6247325D0011, $1.3 million). All three parent vehicles are single-award contracts held by Alfaro at Naval Air Station Fallon, creating a captive customer dynamic rather than open-market competition.

Activity shows volatility with a recompete cliff ahead. Award volume spiked in 2022 (7 awards) and 2024 (9 awards) but dropped to 5 awards in 2025. More significantly, only 4 awards (combined potential value $3 million) carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, meaning the bulk of the company's current backlog extends beyond the recompete window. However, the two Navy IDCs are the primary revenue engines, and one expires June 2025 — a material recompete exposure if renewal is not secured.

SCI-reportable service-contract invoicing reached $2.6 million in FY2024 across 1.6 FTEs (prime delivery only), up from $2.5 million and 1.0 FTE in FY2023. The SCI data reflects only contracts above the $150,000 threshold and excludes goods and products; the source's full federal award portfolio ($37.8 million potential value) is substantially larger. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable work show a median of $406.86/hr with 90th-percentile labor pricing reaching $1,112.72/hr, reflecting a mix of general labor and technical project management. The company performs all work through its own staff; across SCI prime contracts, 0% of hours are subcontracted, and the source identifies no named subcontractors in the vendor's prime footprint.

The vendor operates as a specialized small-business construction and infrastructure services firm with near-exclusive reliance on the Navy Installations Command and Naval Facilities Engineering Command as customers. Heavy concentration at a single installation (Naval Air Station Fallon) and dependence on 8(a) sole source set-asides create customer lock-in and limited diversification exposure. Recompete risk is material if the June 2025 IDC renewal is delayed or lost.
