Brand Construction LLC

Brand Construction LLC, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) based in West, Texas, provides construction, renovation, repair, and maintenance services to federal agencies as a prime contractor, with a customer base almost entirely concentrated in the Department of Veterans Affairs and a footprint of 146 federal awards totaling $30.9 million in combined potential value.

Brand Construction is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation and certified SDVOSB that operates across NAICS 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors) and related specialty trade codes. The vendor competes predominantly under SDVOSB set-asides; of 146 prime awards in the source data, the majority carry SDVOSB set-aside designations, with a smaller number awarded on full-and-open or total-small-business-set-aside bases.

Customer concentration is striking. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 17 (VISN 17), which covers Texas healthcare facilities, accounts for 134 awards (92% of recent prime awards) and $29.1 million (94% of combined potential value). The vendor's remaining customer base splits among the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers (7 awards, $992 thousand), the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 19 (2 awards, $540 thousand), and three smaller VA offices. This concentration reflects Brand Construction's strategic positioning as a preferred SDVOSB contractor for VA facility maintenance across the Texas network.

Capability portfolio centers on HVAC system repair and replacement, plumbing infrastructure, electrical installation, roofing, and emergency facility repairs at VA medical centers. Representative contracts include a $7.32 million fire alarm system campus-wide upgrade at the Waco VA facility (awarded October 2025, ultimate completion September 2027); a $2.2 million environmental controls upgrade at Building 223 of the Doris Miller VA Medical Center in Waco (awarded April 2026, completion April 2027); a $1.38 million VAV box replacement project at Dallas VA (awarded August 2025, completion July 2026); a $1.22 million HVAC repair scope at Building 221 in Temple (awarded September 2024, completion March 2026); and a $1.74 million emergency surgery department chiller replacement (awarded July 2026). The vendor also executes smaller critical-infrastructure work such as mobile chiller tie-ins, condenser and pump replacements, water softener system installations, and mold remediation. Award size ranges from micro-purchases under $25,000 to definitive contracts exceeding $2 million, with firm fixed-price terms predominant.

Activity trajectory shows cyclical variation: 28 awards in 2022 (the peak year in the source), 13 in 2023, 17 in 2024, 13 in 2025, and 12 year-to-date in 2026 as of July 20. The source identifies 12 awards (combined potential value $16.4 million) with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months, representing significant recompete exposure for the vendor and recompete opportunity for competitors.

Brand Construction operates exclusively as a prime contractor; the vendor carries zero subcontract awards and no identified sub engagement on SCI-reportable prime contracts. Across SCI records in the source data, the vendor invoiced $84 thousand in FY2024 against 0.3 FTEs, driven by three prime service contracts. The low SCI footprint reflects the vendor's dependence on construction and repair contracts, which fall outside the SCI reporting threshold or are categorized as goods/products rather than services. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI records span from approximately $16.64 per hour at the low end to $149.79 per hour at the 90th percentile, with a median rate around $83.21 per hour. These figures represent a partial and narrow view; SCI captures only federal service contracts above $150,000 and excludes the majority of Brand Construction's delivery model — construction labor, materials, and equipment-intensive work on firm-fixed-price facility contracts.

The vendor's federal footprint is functionally a single-customer relationship with VISN 17, anchored by recurring small-purchase-order and definitive-contract awards for emergency and scheduled facility maintenance across multiple Texas VA medical centers (Temple, Waco, Dallas, Amarillo, Big Spring, Beverly Hills, Killeen, and Garland). Place of performance spans these Texas locations. The vendor does not participate in government-wide vehicles, BPAs, GWACs, or agency-wide IDIQs; work flows through direct VISN 17 solicitations. SDVOSB set-aside designations recur across 70% to 80% of prime awards, with the balance awarded competitively or under total-small-business set-asides, typically through purchase order and definitive contract mechanisms.
