Alpha Construction And Engineering Corporation

Alpha Construction And Engineering Corporation, doing business as Alpha Corporation, is a woman-owned small business based in Dulles, Virginia, that delivers construction management, architectural and engineering, and professional services to federal civilian agencies as a prime contractor (99% of recent awards). The company holds SBA women-owned small business certification and competes predominantly on full-and-open federal procurements, with occasional total-small-business set-asides; it does not anchor its footprint to 8(a) or other federal set-aside vehicles.

Alpha Corporation's customer concentration sits overwhelmingly with civilian infrastructure and national park agencies. The top five customers by award count account for 59% of awards, led by the Department of the Interior National Park Service National Office (316 awards, $115 million combined potential value) and the National Park Service regional office (74 awards, $806 thousand), followed by the Department of the Navy (57 awards), NASA (34 awards), and GSA Public Buildings Service (32 awards). The Navy's ranking reverses dramatically when sorted by dollar value — the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command anchors $72.55 billion in combined potential value across 8 awards, reflecting what appears to be a single or small number of supersized IDV vehicles that dwarf all other customer relationships. GSA Public Buildings Service Region 3 holds $500.6 million across 5 awards, and the Department of State's Bureau of Overseas Building Operations contributes $29.7 million across 11 awards. The stark divergence between award-count dominance (NPS National Office) and dollar-value dominance (Navy NAVSEA) signals a portfolio split between high-volume transactional work at the parks and facilities level versus deep vehicle penetration on larger shipbuilding or infrastructure contracts with DoN.

Alpha Corporation places task orders across two major GSA vehicles and multiple park-specific IDIQs. The Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) carries 261 task orders valued at $591.6 million combined potential value, representing the vendor's broadest customer access point. The Professional Services Schedule holds 185 task orders worth $33.5 million. An Indefinite Delivery Contract (C2000031500) carries 119 task orders totaling $192.3 million, and a second IDC (C2000982500) carries 62 task orders worth $1.4 million. Older park-specific A-E vehicles (NPS A-E Design Services 2014–2016) show 44 task orders at $4 million, indicating mature contract positions being wound down. Recent IDV awards include a $500 million multiple-award BPA with GSA Public Buildings Service Region 3 for construction management and related services (performance through December 31, 2028, awarded August 2023), a $22 million GSA Federal Supply Schedule for engineering and professional services (through April 20, 2028, awarded April 2023), and a $9.9 million Food and Drug Administration BPA for construction management and inspection services (five ordering periods through August 27, 2031, awarded August 2026). Representative task-order work spans facility rehabilitations at Yellowstone ($877,100.50 for Old Faithful Water Treatment System, awarded July 2025), Petrified Forest ($454,627.16 for Painted Desert Community Complex, awarded September 2025), and a $7.94 million Charles Whitaker Federal Courthouse renovation in Kansas City, Missouri (awarded August 2023, completing April 2027). Alpha also holds scheduling and construction management roles on overseas projects, including $499,825.77 for the Tunis MSGR Construction Project through the Bureau of Overseas Building Operations (awarded January 2022) and $59,055.05 for fuel farm project support in Bagdad, Iraq (awarded June 2024).

Alpha Corporation operates as a prime contractor in nearly all cases (99% prime vs. 1% sub). Across SCI-reportable federal service contracts — a partial and threshold-based view capturing contracts above $150,000 — Alpha invoiced $6.1 million as a prime between FY2022 and FY2025, with FY2025 reaching $2.7 million across 7.7 FTEs. The trajectory shows growth from $516 thousand in FY2022 (1.1 FTEs) to $2.7 million in FY2025 (7.5 FTEs), though this SCI subset represents a small fraction of the vendor's total federal services footprint given the 872-award portfolio and $73.46 billion combined potential value. On prime contracts captured in SCI, the vendor subcontracts approximately 37% of hours on average, with ten named subcontractors reported across those contracts. GSA Schedule labor rates span $85.95 to $231.50 per hour across eleven categories, with median government-paid rates around $157.60/hr for project engineers and estimators; senior roles and principals price through $274.68/hr. No security-cleared positions are offered. Alpha's subcontractor footprint shows recurring relationships with Summer Consultants, Inc. for civil and structural engineering services on federal facility projects (barracks renovations, fire protection upgrades, electrical work at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling, and FDA animal research facility assessments, awarded between August 2023 and July 2026) and occasional teaming with Page Southerland Page, Inc. on schedule consulting (April 2024).

Activity has declined year over year from 17 awards in 2023 to 6 in 2026, with eleven awards (combined potential value $12.4 million) reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and facing recompete exposure. The vendor's award portfolio dates to 1987, indicating mature, long-standing relationships with NPS and GSA, but recent award velocity suggests either selective pursuit or reduced customer demand in this service category. Alpha's capability portfolio centers on construction management representative services, program management, cost estimating, scheduling, procurement, contract administration, project controls, and quality assurance for civilian federal facility and infrastructure projects, with particular depth in national park visitor centers, bathhouse and campground rehabilitations, accessibility improvements, and courthouse facility upgrades. The company's positioning emphasizes civilian infrastructure over defense work, and its full-and-open competitive posture on MAS task orders and civilian agency IDIQs aligns it with the civilian federal construction and facilities management market.
