Maccaferri, Inc.

Maccaferri, Inc., based in Hagerstown, Maryland, manufactures and supplies protective infrastructure and barrier systems—primarily gabion baskets, rapid assembly protective walls, and expeditionary barrier solutions—to the Department of Defense and federal civilian agencies as a prime contractor exclusively (100% of recent awards). The company is a for-profit manufacturer competing in full-and-open federal procurements with no set-aside designations across its portfolio.

Maccaferri's customer base is heavily concentrated with the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Troop Support Construction and Equipment division, which accounts for 132 of 152 prime awards (91% of award count) and $1.05 billion of the $1.09 billion combined potential value across all recent awards. The Department of the Army Corps of Engineers is the secondary customer with 8 awards and $28.9 million in combined potential value. Other federal customers—the Department of the Air Force Pacific Air Forces, the Department of the Interior Bureau of Indian Affairs Navajo Region, the Department of Agriculture Forest Service, the Department of the Army, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service—account for minimal award share. This customer concentration is decision-relevant: DLA Troop Support represents over 96% of Maccaferri's total potential value, making that single buyer relationship the core business driver.

Maccaferri holds two major Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) vehicles anchoring its federal footprint. The primary vehicle is a $500 million single-award IDIQ with DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment (SPE8E621D0027), awarded August 2021 and running through August 2026, which authorizes delivery of 18 different types of expeditionary barrier systems under Prefabricated Metal Building and Component Manufacturing (NAICS 332311). This vehicle has generated 76 task orders with $26.1 million in combined potential value, though the source data shows individual delivery order values ranging from under $1,000 to over $4 million, with firm fixed-price structures and performance locations split between Williamsport, Maryland, and Italy. A secondary IDIQ (SPE8E615D0001) with the same agency carries $27.6 million potential value across 54 task orders. The Army Corps of Engineers awarded a newer $25.086 million single-award IDIQ (W912EK25D0014) in April 2025 for gabion baskets and technical advisory services, running through April 2030, which has already generated 7 task orders worth $3.8 million. Representative work includes a $553,398 resupply of gabion baskets for emergency flood response in Seattle (January 2026, USACE), a $2.69 million protective wall rapid assembly order from DLA (October 2025, Hagerstown), and a $960,000 protective wall systems delivery order from Defense Logistics Agency (March 2026).

Activity has been volatile over the past five years. Awards declined sharply from 24 in 2023 to 3 in 2024, then recovered to 18 in 2025 and 12 in 2026 year-to-date. The $500 million DLA IDIQ ceiling is set to expire August 2026, creating a significant recompete opportunity or cliff for the vendor if the contract is not renewed or if the ceiling is reduced. Combined potential value of awards with ultimate completion dates in the next 24 months is substantial given the multiple large delivery orders across the DLA and USACE vehicles. Maccaferri's capability footprint is narrow and specialized: the company manufactures no sub-tiers and operates as a pure prime, focused exclusively on protective barrier systems and gabion baskets in steel-wire construction serving DoD force protection, expeditionary operations, and emergency response (flood control, erosion management) applications.
