Brice Engineering, LLC

Brice Engineering, LLC, an Alaskan Native Corporation-owned 8(a)-certified small disadvantaged business headquartered in Anchorage, Alaska, operates as a prime contractor (98% of recent awards) delivering hazardous waste remediation, environmental site investigations, PFAS treatment and monitoring, infrastructure support, and long-term environmental compliance services to federal agencies across the Department of Defense, Army Corps of Engineers, Coast Guard, and civilian agencies. The firm competes under 8(a) Sole Source and Competitive 8(a) set-asides on the majority of its work; across the recent award footprint, 8(a) set-asides and total small business set-asides account for a substantial share of prime awards, though competitive and unrestricted awards are also present. Brice Engineering is a subsidiary of Calista Brice LLC, its Alaskan Native parent.

Customer concentration is pronounced and regional. The Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Alaska dominates the portfolio—68 awards valued at $730.1 million combined potential value represent 41% of all awards and 52% of potential value. The Coast Guard ranks second with 19 awards worth $190.8 million. The Corps of Engineers Engineering District Seattle ($130.2 million across six awards), the Missile Defense Agency ($70.3 million across three awards), and the Sacramento District ($43.7 million across ten awards) round out the top five by potential value; these five customers account for 83% of combined potential value. Award volume declined from a peak of 28 in 2023 to seven in 2026 year-to-date, indicating a contraction or completion of major contract vehicles rather than growth; 28 awards with completion dates in the next twenty-four months represent $78.9 million in recompete exposure.

Brice Engineering holds a portfolio of large Indefinite Delivery Contracts serving as the foundation for task order issuance. The $245 million Cleanup of Hazardous, Toxic, and Radioactive Waste in Alaska and Pacific Ocean Division IDIQ with the Army Corps of Engineers Alaska District (partial small business set-aside, June 2023–June 2030) is the single largest vehicle, anchoring 3% of the recent awards but carrying massive dollar value. The $97 million Environmental Remediation Services - Alaska District IDIQ (total small business set-aside, May 2025–April 2030) and the $70.2 million Missile Defense Agency Range Logistics and Infrastructure Support IDIQ (8(a) sole source, September 2024–September 2029) are major follow-ons. The $115 million Northwestern Division Regional 8(a) MATOC for Environmental Remediation Services (competitive 8(a), November 2021–November 2026) and the $45 million Arctic Region Environmental Remediation IDIQ with the Coast Guard (competitive 8(a), June 2026–May 2033) enable task orders across multiple regions. Additionally, the $24.99 million Environmental Remediation Services IDIQ with the Sacramento District (8(a) sole source, September 2022–September 2027) and a $9 million remediation and environmental services IDC with ENDIST Louisville (total small business set-aside, April 2023–April 2028) provide sustained ordering vehicles. Task orders under the Alaska and Pacific Rim Environmental Remediation Services 2020-2025 vehicle (31 task orders, $41.8 million combined potential value) and the Nationwide Environmental Engineering Services IDIQ (15 task orders, $20.5 million) represent ongoing workload.

Concrete capability framing reflects the award history. Representative prime work includes a $70.89 million PFAS soil washing treatment and disposal contract at Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska (November 2022, Total Small Business set-aside, ultimate completion February 2026); a $31.9 million IRP North Playa PFAS response action at Cannon Air Force Base, New Mexico (September 2023, 8(a) sole source, ultimate completion September 2028); a $13.12 million hazardous remediation services definitive contract for treated drinking water delivery to residences near Fairchild Air Force Base, Washington (January 2026, 8(a) sole source, ultimate completion January 2028); and a $11.41 million Northwest Pipe and Casing Superfund Site groundwater bioremediation contract at Clackamas, Oregon (May 2025, cost-plus-fixed-fee, ultimate completion May 2030). More recent delivery orders include a $5.87 million Phase I PFAS remedial investigation from USACE Sacramento District (September 2024, ultimate completion September 2029); a $5.67 million delivery order for environmental remediation services in Rock Island, Illinois from ENDIST Louisville (September 2025, ultimate completion March 2031); and a $4.05 million environmental remediation delivery order for site restoration at Anchorage from ENDIST Alaska (September 2025, Total Small Business set-aside, ultimate completion September 2030). Coastal and remote-location work includes a $1.51 million Coast Guard delivery order for environmental site assessment and remedial planning at the Wood Island Lighthouse off Maine and Cocos Island, Guam (May 2025, ultimate completion November 2026), and a $1.37 million Coast Guard delivery order for Port Clarence divestiture support in Alaska (August 2021, 8(a) sole source, ultimate completion June 2024). The portfolio spans investigation, feasibility studies, remedial design, removal actions, long-term monitoring, and operations and maintenance across CERCLA Superfund sites, RCRA long-term management, Formerly Used Defense Sites (FUDS), and military installation environmental programs.

Service Contract Inventory data provides a partial view of federal services delivery. SCI-reportable invoicing totaled $6.4 million across FY2022–FY2024, with $2.9 million in FY2022, $1.7 million in FY2023, and $1.8 million in FY2024—a declining trajectory. FTE counts show roughly 7.7 FTEs in FY2022, 5.7 in FY2023, and 5.9 in FY2024 on federal services contracts captured in SCI. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable prime contracts ranged from a 10th percentile of $99.63 per hour to a median of $161.33 per hour, with senior labor pricing through $264.19 per hour (90th percentile). Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractor hours averaged zero percent of total contractor hours, indicating that delivery on these service contracts was performed by company staff rather than subcontracted labor. SCI data excludes the bulk of Brice Engineering's federal revenue—particularly large remediation and construction contracts, goods, and infrastructure support work—and thus understates the company's total federal footprint and workforce scale.

Brice Engineering operates almost entirely as a prime contractor, with subcontracted work representing 2% of awards. Named sub-award engagements include work under EA Engineering, Science, and Technology, Inc., PBC on Fort Leonard Magazine remediation projects (October 2025 and December 2022) and under AECOM Technical Services, Inc. on SWMU 60 remedial work (February 2022). The sub engagement is minimal and does not define the business model.

The recompete landscape shows material exposure. Twenty-eight awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $78.9 million—a significant share of the active pipeline. Notable vehicles approaching expiration or recompete windows include the Alaska and Pacific Rim Environmental Remediation Services 2020-2025 IDIQ (completion April 2025, now expired or imminent), and several multi-year delivery orders under major IDIQs that will roll off into new solicitations or extensions. The decline in awards per year from 2023 to 2026, coupled with the recompete cliff, signals a transition period in which Brice Engineering must secure follow-on awards or new task order vehicles to maintain volume.

Corporate structure and ownership are material to the federal footprint. Brice Engineering, LLC is a subsidiary of Calista Brice LLC, its Alaskan Native Corporation parent, which shares the same SBA certifications and minority-owned business designations. The parent entity holds awarded federal contract vehicles in its own name and may coordinate teaming or administrative functions across operating units.
