Patricia I. Romero, Inc.

Patricia I. Romero, Inc., doing business as Pacific West Builders, is a women-owned small business based in National City, California, that delivers military construction, renovation, and repair services to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor. The company holds SBA certifications as a Women-Owned Small Business, HUBZone firm, and Small Disadvantaged Business, and is a self-certified DOT-certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprise operating as a Subchapter S corporation. Pacific West Builders competes predominantly full-and-open on defense construction work, though HUBZone and small-business set-asides recur across several award vehicles.

The Department of the Navy Naval Facilities Engineering Command dominates the customer footprint, accounting for 61 awards with $2.53 billion in combined potential value — nearly 79% of the vendor's total portfolio across 197 prime awards. The Navy's broader footprint (NAVFAC, Installations Command, and Pacific Fleet Forces combined) represents 85 awards and $2.59 billion, with the Marine Corps and Air Force adding $81.7 million. Pacific West Builders' capability portfolio centers on commercial and institutional building construction (145 awards), specialty trade contracting (12 awards), and industrial building construction (7 awards), grounded in concrete delivery-order work: a $3.48 million Building 116 first-floor conversion at Naval Base San Diego under the San Diego Metro Area MACC (September 2025); a $3.74 million room renovation at Naval Air Station Point Mugu (July 2022); a $5.79 million aircraft simulator repair and reconfiguration at Marine Corps Air Station Camp Pendleton under HUBZone set-aside (June 2022); and a $10.85 million warehouse and auto shop repair at Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twenty-Nine Palms (January 2022).

Pacific West Builders holds two major parent vehicles. The San Diego Metro Area Construction, Renovation, and Repair MACC, valued at $99.999 billion with a June 8, 2031 completion date, anchors 24 task orders across $46.5 million in combined potential value and serves NAVFAC, Naval Information Warfare Systems Command, and Marine Corps customers for facility upgrades across six southwestern states. The NAVFAC Southwest HUBZone Small Business II MACC, a $495 million vehicle running through 2026, funded 30 task orders totaling $67.9 million and enabled work at Naval Base San Diego, Camp Pendleton, and other western installations. A newly awarded Western Regional Multiple Award Construction Contract from NASA Armstrong Flight Research Center (June 8, 2026) carries a $450 million ceiling and runs through June 8, 2031, positioning the vendor for NASA and multi-agency construction task orders across the southwestern region. A Basic Ordering Agreement with USAF DFAS (January 16, 2026, through January 15, 2031) carries a zero dollar ceiling and serves as a foundational vehicle for Air Force facility work.

Activity has remained modest but steady — ranging from three to eight awards per year over the past five years, with three awards in 2026 to date. Recent awards (September–June 2025) clustered heavily around Naval Base San Diego and associated facilities: $3.48 million first-floor conversion, $1.58 million room renovation in Building 3290, $3.06 million bathroom renovation, $1.74 million bulk restroom work, $1.35 million ventilation system replacement, and $536 thousand room renovation with electronic security system installation. Only six awards (combined potential value $11.8 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, limiting near-term recompete exposure. The vendor has generated $317 million in obligated dollars against $3.19 billion in combined potential value — a 10% realization rate — reflecting the multi-year, option-heavy structure of military construction IDIQs. Pacific West Builders operates as a solo prime (100% prime awards, zero sub-awards) with no named subcontractor relationships in the source data, executing construction work directly across Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force installations concentrated in California and the southwestern United States.
