Britt Rice Construction Company, LP

Britt Rice Construction Company, LP is a College Station, Texas–based general contractor operating as a limited liability partnership that performs prime facility construction and renovation work for federal agencies, with recent awards concentrated in building electrical upgrades, emergency generator installation, and LED lighting retrofits at USDA research facilities and Veterans Affairs installations. The company competes predominantly in full-and-open procurement; no SBA set-aside designations appear across the award footprint.

The vendor's federal work centers on specialty trade construction — primarily electrical installation and building systems replacement — supporting agricultural research infrastructure. Three recent sub-awards, all issued in September and October 2025, exemplify this portfolio: an electrical service upgrade for Buildings 1 and 16 at the Southern Plains Agricultural Research Center in College Station under prime Mill Creek Firelake JV LLC; a generator installation at the same facility under the same prime; and LED lighting replacement in Building 1A at the research center under prime Firelake Construction Inc. Award history shows 18 prime contracts or IDVs (86% of recent volume) against 3 sub-awards (14%), grounded in NAICS categories spanning Commercial and Institutional Building Construction, Electrical Contractors, and Plumbing and HVAC Contractors.

Customer concentration is heavy with the Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service, which anchors ten awards (76% of the source portfolio) centered on facility maintenance and renovation at the Southern Plains Agricultural Research Center near the vendor's headquarters. Department of Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center Austin and Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Fort Worth represent outliers by dollar value — $69 thousand and $14 thousand respectively — though the bulk of the dollar value across all awards remains sub-$100 thousand per award. Two indefinite delivery contracts support task order placement: IDC 12805B24D0003 (2 task orders) and IDC 12805B22D0008 (1 task order). Activity is episodic; the source captures 21 awards across fifteen years with clustering in 2006–2010 and a recent uptick in 2025. Combined potential value is $104 thousand against obligated dollars of $283 thousand, indicating significant spend-down of prior-year ceilings. Britt Rice subcontracts to Mill Creek Firelake JV LLC and Firelake Construction Inc. on agricultural research center infrastructure work.
