Mitten Construction Co

Mitten Construction Co, a woman-owned small business based in Dover, Delaware, operates as a prime contractor providing pavement repair, snow removal, facility maintenance, and building operations services to the Air Force Air Mobility Command (AMC) at Dover Air Force Base, competing full-and-open without set-aside designation across its federal footprint.

Mitten's capability portfolio centers on infrastructure maintenance and facility management at Dover AFB. Representative work includes a $413,548 firm fixed-price delivery order (August 2023) from AMC for pavement repair at Building 635, a $1 million single-award blanket purchase agreement running through December 2026 for snow removal services and facility operations across approximately 2.7 million square yards of parking areas and infrastructure, and multiple BPA calls including a $26,250 contract (October 2025) for technical representative and miscellaneous snow removal services. The company delivers highway and street maintenance, parking lot operations, office building management, and snow and ice control across the base to support AMC's airlift and airdrop readiness mission.

Customer concentration is extreme and singular. AMC accounts for 165 of 341 total awards (98% of recent activity) and $133.3 million of the $134.2 million combined potential value across the vendor's entire footprint. The remaining six customer awards (four to Air Force base commands at $31 thousand combined, two to Air Force Defense Finance and Accounting Service at $759 thousand combined, one to Army Medical Command at $14 thousand, and one to Army at six thousand) represent negligible exposure; the vendor operates essentially as a single-customer contractor to AMC at Dover. Mitten sits on five Air Force IDCs as the primary vehicle for work placement: Indefinite Delivery Contract F0760301D0003 (87 task orders), FA449706D0009 (60 task orders, $12.2 million combined potential value), FA449711D0014 (58 task orders, $10.9 million combined potential value), F0760397D8211 (37 task orders), and F0760393D8206 (22 task orders).

Activity has declined steeply. Mitten delivered three awards in 2021, falling to one award each in 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025. Only one award ($26 thousand) faces ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal near-term recompete exposure. The vendor carries no subcontract footprint; all 341 awards are primes with no sub-award activity. Work is performed exclusively at Dover Air Force Base, Delaware, under NAICS codes centered on Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction (172 awards) and Other Services to Buildings and Dwellings (nine awards), with PSC activity split between maintenance and repair of highways, roads, streets, and bridges (200 awards combined across two PSC lines) and maintenance and repair of administrative buildings (34 awards).
