Harrell Contracting Inc.

Harrell Contracting Inc., doing business as Harrell Contracting, is a veteran-owned, SBA-certified HUBZone small business headquartered in Worthington, Indiana, that delivers construction, facilities maintenance, and infrastructure repair services to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor, competing predominantly under small-business set-asides and full-and-open vehicles. The company has registered as a federal contractor since 2001 and operates across NAICS 236210 (Industrial Building Construction), 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), and 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), performing work across domestic Defense installations in Indiana and the Midwest.

Harrell Contracting's capability portfolio centers on mechanical, electrical, and building infrastructure work at Navy and Army facilities. Representative work includes a $60 million indefinite delivery contract (awarded September 2021, extending through September 2026) for minor construction, renovation, and repair at Naval Support Activity Crane and Glendora Test Facility in Sullivan, Indiana; a $3 million single-award IDIQ (awarded November 2021, through October 2026, HUBZone-designated) for HVAC systems, controls, variable refrigerant flow systems, fire alarm systems, generators, and electrical infrastructure maintenance and repair; and a $751,618 storage tank testing, inspection, and repair contract (awarded December 2021, through December 2026, total small business set-aside) serving the same two naval facilities. Recent task orders under these vehicles include a $1.088 million Army delivery order (July 2024) for building modifications at Naval Support Activity Crane with ultimate completion August 2026, a $515,000 Naval Sea Systems Command delivery order (September 2022) for building interior modifications, and numerous smaller purchase orders and delivery orders for HVAC diagnostics, boiler repairs, door replacements, epoxy flooring, electrical work, and emergency facility repairs ranging from $1,125 to $414,679.

Customer concentration is extreme and reflects the vendor's geographic and operational footprint. The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command dominates by award count, accounting for 274 awards (55% of the vendor's prime portfolio) with $67.7 million in combined potential value. By dollar magnitude, the Department of the Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command leads with 55 awards valued at $129.7 million combined, driven largely by the $60 million minor construction IDIQ. The Navy Installations Command places 57 awards worth $13.2 million. Together, Navy-related customers (NAVSEA, NAVFAC, Navy Installations Command) account for 386 of 499 awards (77%) and approximately $210 million of the $220.5 million total potential value. The Department of the Army accounts for approximately 78 awards (Army, Joint Munitions Command, and Army Materiel Command) worth approximately $7.7 million combined, representing about 4% of dollars. Harrell Contracting has placed minimal work outside the Navy's Indiana footprint; the U.S. Forest Service Eastern Region (Region 9) awarded a $250,000 multiple-award BPA in August 2023 for facilities construction projects.

The vendor holds four primary indefinite delivery vehicles. The $60 million minor construction IDIQ (NSA Crane Minor Construction MAC 2016-2021, awarded by Naval Facilities Engineering Command Mid-Atlantic through September 2026) has generated 72 task orders worth $8.5 million in combined potential value and forms the foundation for most large-dollar renovation and construction delivery orders. The $3 million mechanical and electrical systems IDIQ (Naval Facilities Engineering Command, HUBZone-designated, through October 2026) has produced 61 task orders totaling $4.3 million. The $751,618 storage tank services contract (Naval Facilities Engineering Command, through December 2026) supports recurring tank inspection and maintenance with task orders ranging from $8,089 to $121,102 annually. Most recently, in December 2025, Naval Sea Systems Command awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (CONSTRUCTION BPA 3 HCI) valued at $50 million, effective through December 2030, signaling a substantial new vehicle for construction and facility support services. Harrell Contracting also holds a $250,000 multiple-award BPA with the Forest Service (Region 9, through February 2032).

Activity has remained relatively stable, averaging 25 awards per year over the past five years, with 12 awards in 2026 (first four months only). The vendor obligated $36.1 million against $220.5 million in potential value across all awards (16% obligation rate), reflecting the typical spread between ceiling and invoiced amounts on indefinite delivery vehicles. Only five awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, valued at approximately $1.2 million combined, indicating minimal recompete cliff exposure in the near term. The $60 million and $3 million Naval Facilities Engineering Command IDIQs extending through September and October 2026 will require recompete action in late 2025 and 2026, respectively, representing the vendor's most material pipeline exposure.

Harrell Contracting competes substantially under small-business set-asides. Across the award portfolio, approximately 40% of contracts carry total small business or HUBZone set-aside designations, with the remainder awarded full-and-open or without set-aside restriction. The vendor's HUBZone certification and veteran-owned status position it favorably on set-aside vehicles, and several of its core IDIQs (the $3 million mechanical contract and the $751,618 tank services contract) are either HUBZone-designated or reserved for small business. The vendor rarely subcontracts; the award portfolio shows 499 prime awards and zero sub-awards, indicating Harrell Contracting performs substantially all work in-house using direct employee labor and local subcontract support for specialized trades.
