Milton J. Wood Fire Protection, Inc.

Milton J. Wood Fire Protection, Inc., operating as Milton J Wood Fire Protection Inc., is a Jacksonville, Florida-based Subchapter S corporation that designs, builds, and installs fire suppression, detection, and alarm systems at Navy, Marine Corps, and Department of Defense facilities as a prime contractor (82% of recent awards) competing full-and-open across the southeastern United States. The vendor has generated $239 million in combined potential value across 17 recent federal awards with no small business set-aside designations.

Milton J. Wood Fire Protection's customer concentration is extreme and Navy-anchored. The Department of the Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command dominates both volume and dollars, accounting for seven awards with $221.7 million combined potential value — roughly 93% of the vendor's entire federal footprint. The United States Marine Corps contributes one award ($11.5 million), and the Department of the Navy Installations Command contributes one award ($5.7 million), bringing Navy-related work to $238.9 million of the $239 million total. The remaining four awards scattered across the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Kennedy Space Center, the Department of the Interior National Park Service Southeast Region, the Department of Homeland Security US Coast Guard, and the Department of the Air Force Defense Finance and Accounting Service are negligible in aggregate dollar value. All Navy work flows through the Design-Build and Design-Bid-Build Fire Protection MAC NAVFAC Southeast, a $99 million multiple-award contract from which Milton J. Wood has captured eight task orders totaling $41 million in combined potential value.

Recent representative prime work includes a $5.4 million firm fixed price delivery order from Naval Facilities Engineering Command (awarded June 2026, completing August 2027) for replacement of fire suppression, detection, and alarm systems at Building C-2076, Naval Air Station Key West, Florida; a $5.7 million delivery order from Navy Installations Command (April 2026, completing July 2027) for fire alarm dormitory replacement at Pensacola, Florida; a $11.5 million delivery order from the Marine Corps (November 2023, extended through September 2026) for fire alarm repairs and equipment configuration at Building 1121, Albany, Georgia; and a $4.0 million delivery order for fire safety system upgrades at NSA Orlando, Florida. Primary NAICS classification is Electrical Contractors and Other Wiring Installation Contractors, with secondary classification in Industrial Building Construction and Fire Control Equipment maintenance. Three awards reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, carrying combined potential value of $14.9 million and exposing that work to recompete.

Milton J. Wood operates primarily as a prime contractor; however, the vendor subcontracts to larger aerospace and engineering primes on specialized work. Named subcontracts include fire detection and alarm design services and cryogenic vacuum jacketed pipe spools for Bechtel National's Space Launch System Mobile Launcher 2 program (subcontract awards October 2021 and August 2025), and high-pressure fire system fabrication and installation for Battelle Memorial Institute on airbase resilience research and development (December 2023). Service Contract Inventory data captures only one subcontract record (FY2022) showing 4.9 delivered FTEs, reflecting the vendor's limited SCI-reportable service-contract footprint; the vast majority of Milton J. Wood's federal revenue derives from design-build and equipment installation delivery orders on the NAVFAC Southeast MAC, which fall outside the SCI reporting threshold or are priced as firm-fixed-price capital projects rather than labor-hour service contracts.
