Joyce & Associates Construction, Inc.

Joyce & Associates Construction, Inc., a Newport, North Carolina-based small business and Subchapter S corporation, delivers construction and facilities maintenance services to the U.S. Marine Corps and Naval Facilities Engineering Command as a prime contractor, operating across a multi-billion-dollar IDIQ portfolio at Marine Corps installations in the Mid-Atlantic region. The company is registered in SAM.gov since August 2001 and competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides on newer vehicles while executing work on full-and-open contracts under legacy IDIQs.

The vendor's customer base is heavily concentrated with Department of Navy components. The top five funding agencies account for 97% of awards: the U.S. Marine Corps dominates by award count with 651 awards worth $903.5 million combined potential value, but Naval Facilities Engineering Command anchors the dollar profile with 72 awards totaling $1.53 billion. Naval Air Systems Command, the broader Department of the Navy, and the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery round out the active set. The Marine Corps concentration reflects the geographic footprint: Joyce & Associates performs virtually all work at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune and Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, North Carolina, where the vendor has built sustained relationships across multiple customer organizations.

Joyce & Associates holds three primary IDIQs. The $324 million General Construction Multiple Award Construction Contract (MACC) with Naval Facilities Engineering Command, awarded September 2021 and expiring September 2026, remains the largest active vehicle and the source of the majority of historical delivery orders. The $40 million Maintenance and Repair MACC with the U.S. Marine Corps, awarded December 2024 and running through December 2029, is newer and designated as a Total Small Business set-aside. Most recently, on September 29, 2025, Naval Facilities Engineering Command awarded a $495 million Total Small Business set-aside IDIQ for general construction projects at Camp Lejeune and Cherry Point through September 2030, with delivery order authority ranging from $150,000 to $15 million per task order. All three vehicles support firm fixed-price delivery orders for structural repair, mechanical and plumbing work, electrical systems, civil and grounds maintenance, pavement operations, and new construction or demolition.

Activity has been substantial but is declining. Awards per year dropped from 57 in 2023 to 36 in 2024 and 27 in 2025, with only four awards in the first three months of 2026 in the source snapshot. The recompete cliff is modest: only four awards worth $3.6 million combined potential value have ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, indicating limited near-term recompete pressure. Historical award values span from sub-$20,000 delivery orders for discrete maintenance tasks to $11.3 million for wastewater treatment plant repairs and $6 million-plus for specialized facility renovations at aircraft maintenance operations. Concrete representative work includes a $4.5 million vehicle arrest system replacement at MCAS Cherry Point (September 2025), a $4.1 million roof repair at Camp Lejeune (September 2024), and a $3 million VLFD repair at Camp Lejeune (September 2025), all executed under the General Construction MACC.

The vendor operates as a prime contractor exclusively—906 awards are prime, with no subcontract footprint in the source data. Capability framing centers on concrete construction and facilities maintenance disciplines: structural repairs, concrete work, roof replacements, mechanical and electrical system upgrades, plumbing and HVAC services, pavement and grounds work, demolition, and specialized construction supporting aircraft maintenance facilities. NAICS concentration reflects this portfolio: 814 of 906 awards fall under Commercial and Institutional Building Construction, with smaller representations in highway and bridge construction, finish carpentry, and mechanical systems trades. PSC coding shows primary emphasis on repair and alteration of miscellaneous buildings (290 awards) and maintenance-repair-alteration of miscellaneous and industrial buildings (173 awards combined).

Joyce & Associates' federal footprint is geographically constrained and organizationally insulated from broader DoD reach. All identified work is collocated at two North Carolina installations, funded through Navy and Marine Corps channels, and executed without documented subcontractor teaming. The total small business posture on the new $495 million NAVFAC IDIQ signals competitive positioning in the set-aside market, while sustained presence on the full-and-open $324 million General Construction MACC demonstrates capability to compete on merit. Combined obligated dollars of $484.1 million against a potential value of $2.67 billion indicate 18% cash-flow realization, typical for construction IDIQs where many task orders remain in the pipeline. The sharp decline in annual award volume since 2023—from 57 to 4 awards year-to-date—warrants attention for pipeline risk assessment.
