Horizon Construction Group\International Construction Services JV, LLC

Horizon Construction Group\International Construction Services JV, LLC (doing business as HCG/ICS), a woman-owned small business based in Memphis, Tennessee, is a design-build construction and facility renovation prime contractor operating exclusively under the Department of State's Bureau of Overseas Building Operations (OBO) on a single indefinite-delivery vehicle. The joint venture is 100% woman-owned and competes under woman-owned small business set-asides and partial small business set-asides across all thirty-six recent prime awards; it does not operate as a subcontractor and holds no subcontracting relationships.

HCG/ICS's customer concentration is absolute: all thirty-five named awards (combined potential value $335.8 million) are funded by OBO, with one additional $152 thousand award from the Department of State Bureau of Diplomatic Security. The two agency rankings are identical — OBO dominates 99.95% of recent potential value. HCG/ICS's capability footprint centers on HVAC and chiller system replacement, fire detection and alarm system installation and replacement, electrical equipment renovation, wall replacement, and space renovation at U.S. diplomatic facilities worldwide. Representative work includes a $10.03 million firm-fixed-price delivery order (April 2025) for power plant electrical equipment renovation and replacement at the U.S. Embassy in Havana, Cuba; a $5.65 million delivery order (October 2022) for air-cooled chiller replacement at the U.S. Embassy in Freetown, Sierra Leone; and a $3.62 million delivery order (September 2023) for HVAC and chiller equipment replacement at the U.S. Embassy in Dakar, Senegal. Place of performance spans Africa, the Caribbean, Europe, and Asia at U.S. diplomatic posts globally.

HCG/ICS holds two named parent vehicles. The older "Worldwide Design Build and Construction 2014-2019" IDIQ (awarded by OBO prior to the current award cycle) generated twenty-two task orders carrying $56.4 million in combined potential value. The current vehicle, "Worldwide Design-build Construction And Construction Projects," is a $150 million multiple-award IDIQ (awarded June 30, 2022, with a ceiling through June 29, 2027) partially set aside for small businesses. Ten task orders under this IDIQ carry $29.5 million in combined potential value. Task orders under the current IDIQ carry a maximum annual value of $30 million individually and $15 million annually. Awards across both IDIQs are firm-fixed-price delivery orders issued under woman-owned small business or partial small business set-asides.

Activity has been episodic rather than growth-trending: one award in 2021, four in 2022, four in 2023, two in 2025, and three in 2026 (most recent October 2026). Ten awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $22.3 million and face recompete. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $85.9 million (26% of combined potential value), reflecting the early-stage invoicing typical of design-build construction programs. Service Contract Inventory reports $5.5 million in invoiced revenue in fiscal year 2024 across 5.3 full-time equivalents, with no SCI-reportable invoicing in FY2023, FY2022, or FY2025. Across the 5.3 FTEs in FY2024, government-paid hourly rates ranged from roughly $121/hr at the 10th percentile to a median of $485/hr, with senior labor reaching into five-figure hourly rates. HCG/ICS self-performed all SCI-reportable contractor hours in FY2024 with zero subcontractor engagement. The vendor is a subsidiary of Horizon Construction Group, LLC, which holds the SBA Women-Owned Small Business certification and appears as the parent entity across the corporate structure.
