Frawner Corporation

Frawner Corporation, a minority-owned, Native American-owned small business based in Anchorage, Alaska, is a prime federal contractor specializing in construction, maintenance, and repair services for military installations and federal facilities across the Pacific region. The company operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of 278 awards) and competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides, though recent large awards show increasing full-and-open competitive positioning.

Frawner's capability portfolio centers on utility infrastructure, building systems, and facility renovations. The company delivers plumbing and HVAC services, wastewater system repairs, boiler replacements, water treatment infrastructure, sewer line modernization, building demolition, and structural renovations. Representative work includes a $2.98 million delivery order from Navy Installations Command (awarded September 2025) to replace cast iron subgrade waste collection lines serving eight buildings at Naval Air Station Fallon, Nevada; a $4.56 million Naval Facilities Engineering Command contract (awarded December 2023) for water tank repair and cathodic protection system work at Naval Air Facility El Centro, California; a $2.62 million Pacific Air Forces delivery order (awarded September 2024) for complete demolition of Building 10435 in Anchorage including foundation removal and site restoration; and multiple boiler replacement projects totaling over $5 million across Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson facilities. NAICS concentration reflects this posture: 90 awards under Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors (code 441620), 86 under Water and Sewer Line and Related Structures Construction (code 237110), and 77 under Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (code 236220).

Customer concentration is heavily skewed toward the Pacific region and Navy wet-utilities work. The top five funding agencies account for 91% of awards by count but 96% by potential value, revealing a dollar-concentration shift toward Naval Facilities Engineering Command. Pacific Air Forces leads by award volume (135 awards, $321.5 million combined potential value), anchored by recurring delivery orders from the Air Force MACC IDIQ. Naval Facilities Engineering Command accounts for only nine awards but carries $513 million in combined potential value, driven by two large indefinite delivery contracts. Navy Installations Command (six awards, $17.7 million), the Air Force (43 awards, $44.1 million), and the Air Force Defense Finance and Accounting Service (54 awards, $26.8 million) round out the active set. This concentration reflects Frawner's historical focus on Alaskan and Southwest California military installations, with limited geographical and customer diversification.

Frawner holds two primary vehicle positions. The company was awarded a $150 million Multiple Award Construction Contract Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity with Pacific Air Forces in September 2023, set aside for small businesses, enabling task order competition for construction, maintenance, and repair services at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson and related installations in Alaska. This vehicle has generated 87 task orders with $37.5 million in combined potential value. More recently, on December 19, 2024, Frawner was awarded a $249 million Indefinite Delivery Contract from Naval Facilities Engineering Command for wet utilities construction and repair services throughout the Southwest Area of Responsibility, also set aside for small businesses, with a 2-year base period and two 3-year option periods. Three delivery orders totaling approximately $3.99 million have been issued against this Navy IDV as of September 2025, demonstrating early utilization. The company also holds positions on multiple legacy Air Force MACC IDIQs and other construction vehicles from prior years.

Activity has grown modestly from three awards in 2022 to thirteen in 2025, with three awards recorded as of April 2026. Combined potential value across the entire footprint is $961.9 million, with $207 million (22% of potential) obligated to date. Seven awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $13.6 million, representing modest recompete exposure. This trajectory contrasts with the company's historically steady state—the first award in the source data dates to August 2003—suggesting Frawner operates as an established, stable federal contractor rather than a high-growth player. The recent $249 million Navy wet-utilities IDV award in December 2024 and the $150 million Air Force MACC IDIQ from September 2023 position the company to expand task-order volume in utility infrastructure and facility repair across two large vehicle platforms, though utilization of the newer Navy IDV remains early-stage.
