OCS Construction Services Inc.

OCS Construction Services Inc., doing business as Ocs-Ipi Construction JV-I, is a Riverside, California-based 8(a)-certified, Hispanic American-owned, minority-owned small disadvantaged business that delivers construction, maintenance, repair, and facilities support services to federal agencies as a prime contractor across 254 awards totaling $1.07 billion in combined potential value. OCS operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of awards) and competes under set-asides in the majority of its footprint—the vendor's recent activity splits between 8(a) sole-source and competitive 8(a) designations, with a material share of full-and-open awards on larger vehicles like the GSA Public Building Service Region 9 Multiple Award Construction Contract.

OCS's capability portfolio centers on commercial and institutional building construction, electrical infrastructure upgrades, HVAC system installation and replacement, roof repair and replacement, concrete and asphalt pavement work, perimeter detection and security systems, interior build-outs, plumbing and mechanical work, and janitorial and facility maintenance services. Representative prime work includes a $5.14 million 8(a) sole-source definitive contract with GSA Region 9 for roof replacement and mechanical infrastructure work at the Calexico East Land Port of Entry (awarded September 26, 2024, ultimate completion May 14, 2026); a $4.29 million competitive 8(a) delivery order with the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts for courthouse hardening at the Sandra Day O'Connor Courthouse in Phoenix (awarded April 9, 2026, ultimate completion January 24, 2027); and a $3.78 million total-small-business definitive contract with the Federal Bureau of Prisons for sewage liner replacement and wastewater pond de-silting at Federal Correctional Institution Phoenix (awarded September 8, 2025, ultimate completion December 26, 2026). In FY2025, SCI-reported invoicing reached $9.9 million across 12.0 FTEs on federal service contracts captured above the $150,000 reporting threshold; this represents a decline from FY2024's $16.9 million on 18.4 FTEs, reflecting work completion and staffing fluctuations rather than overall business trajectory.

Customer concentration is pronounced. The top three funding agencies account for 65% of awards by count, led by GSA Public Buildings Service Region 9 (57 awards, $135.4 million combined potential value), the Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection (56 awards, $37.3 million), and the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Los Angeles (32 awards, $38.5 million). By dollar potential, the same three dominate, with GSA anchoring 22% of the combined $1.07 billion portfolio. Naval Facilities Engineering Command and the Bureau of Prisons follow distantly. This concentration reflects OCS's strategic focus on western-region federal facilities owned and managed by GSA and CBP, plus Defense infrastructure work routed through the Army Corps.

OCS holds or sits on multiple large parent vehicles that drive task-order flow. The Public Building Service Region 9 MACC ($50 million GSA vehicle) has generated 20 task orders worth $21.1 million combined potential value. The vendor also holds two single-award Basic Ordering Agreements with Customs and Border Protection valued at $4.5 million each (awarded July 6, 2023, and March 24, 2022, respectively), which have seeded 11 task orders each totaling $3 million and $4.8 million respectively. OCS anchors additional single-award 8(a) Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the Army Corps of Engineers Los Angeles District (two contracts, $2 million each, both awarded September 2023). On June 8, 2026, NASA Armstrong Flight Research Center awarded OCS a $450 million multiple-award partial-small-business Indefinite Delivery Contract for the Western Regional Multiple Award Construction Contract (ultimate completion June 8, 2031). On March 25, 2026, Air Combat Command awarded OCS a $350 million competitive 8(a) multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract for design-build and bid-build construction work at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Arizona (ultimate completion September 9, 2029). These two recent awards represent significant vehicle expansion and signal acceptance into large federal construction vehicles.

Activity has declined modestly year over year, from 28 awards in 2022 to 9 in 2026 (year-to-date), but this reflects backward-looking data capture and the vendor's shift toward larger vehicles with fewer, higher-value task orders rather than the smaller one-off orders that characterize earlier years. Nine awards (combined potential value $17.9 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing moderate recompete exposure. The vendor's SCI-reported workforce on federal service contracts peaked at 18.4 FTEs in FY2024; government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable contracts ranged from $124.45/hr (10th percentile) to $1,821.75/hr (90th percentile), with a median around $540.29/hr, reflecting a mix of craft labor, project management, and professional services.

OCS operates with selective subcontractor engagement. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed an average 19% of contractor hours, indicating OCS self-performs the majority of labor on federal service contracts. Named subcontractors span 20 firms and include Diversified Roofing LLC (roofing demolition and replacement), Mesa Energy Systems Inc. (HVAC and mechanical work), Wavelink Communications Inc. (electrical and data cabling), Glenn A. Rick Engineering & Development Company (survey and engineering services), Construction Testing and Engineering, South, Inc. (geotechnical testing), and Parker Construction Services LLC (Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business; project management and professional services). This pattern suggests OCS builds its own delivery teams for core construction scope and engages specialized subs for design, engineering, electrical, HVAC, and project management disciplines. The vendor's primary NAICS footprint is 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), which accounts for 152 of the 254 awards, with secondary exposure in electrical contracting (NAICS 238210; 12 awards) and plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning contracting (NAICS 238220; 11 awards).
