Hensel Phelps Construction Co

Hensel Phelps Construction Co is a large, established construction enterprise headquartered in Greeley, Colorado, that provides comprehensive design-build, design-bid-build, and general construction services to multiple federal agencies. Registered in SAM.gov since July 2001, the company operates as a child entity of a larger organizational structure and maintains a strong presence across the federal construction marketplace. Hensel Phelps has developed a substantial track record executing complex federal infrastructure projects spanning healthcare facilities, research institutions, military installations, and civilian government buildings.

Hensel Phelps has demonstrated significant expertise across diverse construction project types funded by a broad range of federal agencies. The National Institutes of Health has been a major client, awarding delivery orders totaling over $1.2 billion for projects including the Surgery, Radiology, and Laboratory Medicine Building Construction ($754.7 million), VRC Laboratory Expansion at Building 40A ($180.1 million), Poolesville A and B Conversion Design-Build Contract ($140.5 million), Rocky Mountain Laboratories facilities including Building J construction and vivarium projects ($205.4 million combined), and the Bethesda campus facilities modernization. The Naval Facilities Engineering Command awarded a $45.5 million delivery order for the relocation of hazardous cargo pad and EOD proficiency range at Joint Base Andrews, Maryland. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Baltimore District awarded a $313.8 million design-build contract for records center replacement and mercury flora facilities at Fort Meade, Maryland. The National Institute of Standards and Technology contracted Hensel Phelps for $70.7 million in modernization work on Building 245 and $1.7 million for emergency chill water valve replacement. The Department of Justice FBI awarded $62.2 million for piping repair and replacement at FBI Headquarters in Washington, D.C. The Bureau of Medicine and Surgery awarded a $5.56 million delivery order for the WRNMMC-9 Modernize Main project in Bethesda, Maryland. None of these awards utilized small business set-aside designations, reflecting Hensel Phelps' competitive standing as a large prime contractor. The work encompasses new construction, renovation, modernization, laboratory expansions, specialized research facility development, healthcare infrastructure improvements, and emergency facility repairs across federal installations.

Hensel Phelps Construction Co holds two significant federal contract indefinite delivery vehicles. The primary IDV is a $950 million single-award design-build and design-bid-build construction contract with the Naval Facilities Engineering Command, effective from September 19, 2023 through September 18, 2028, under the parent master contract titled "Large General Construction - D.C., Maryland, and Virginia - 2023-2028." This vehicle covers construction services across NAVFAC's area of responsibility including new construction, demolition, repair, alteration, and renovation of administrative, industrial, maintenance, and personnel support buildings. The second major vehicle is the NIH General Construction Multiple Award Construction Contract (MACC) 2019, valued at $2 billion, which has generated numerous delivery orders for major construction and renovation projects across NIH campuses. Through this NIH vehicle, Hensel Phelps has received task orders for complex laboratory expansions, research building construction, facility modernizations, and specialized equipment activation and installation. Additionally, Hensel Phelps maintains participation in the Mamizu MACC for NAVFAC Pacific Area of Responsibility (valued at $990 million through its parent company Hensel Phelps-Shimizu JV), which provides design-bid-build and design-build construction services for projects primarily funded by the Government of Japan located in Guam and other Pacific regions. These contract vehicles position Hensel Phelps as a key federal construction provider with established relationships across multiple defense and civilian agencies, particularly supporting the Department of Defense, National Institutes of Health, and Naval Facilities Engineering Command.
