PPW Builders Inc.

PPW Builders Inc., a minority-owned, Department of Transportation-certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprise based in Berea, Ohio, delivers construction, renovation, and facility maintenance services to federal agencies as a prime contractor across Total Small Business set-asides and full-and-open competitions. The company competes predominantly under small-business set-asides, with most recent awards falling under Total Small Business or no set-aside designation when competing on unrestricted vehicles.

PPW Builders' customer concentration is heavily skewed toward NASA facilities. The top five funding agencies account for 78% of recent awards by count and 92% of combined potential value. NASA Glenn Research Center dominates the portfolio at 58 awards worth $151.3 million in combined potential value, followed by the General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 5 (15 awards, $69.7 million), NASA Marshall Space Flight Center (10 awards, $21 million), the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (12 awards aggregating $24.6 million across multiple districts), and the Department of the Interior National Park Service Midwest Region and the Department of the Air Force Reserve Command (17 awards each). The two customer rankings diverge meaningfully: Glenn Research Center dominates both volume and dollars, but GSA Region 5's potential-value share reflects larger single-project orders rather than sustained award velocity.

PPW Builders holds positions on five major parent vehicles. The Glenn Multiple Award Construction Contract 2, a $100 million NASA Glenn construction IDIQ set aside for total small business, anchors 19 task orders with $10.1 million in combined potential value. The NASA Marshall Space Flight Center $20 million minor construction IDIQ, awarded March 26, 2024, through March 2029, carries task orders ranging from $5,000 to $1 million and has historically supported 60 to 80 awards annually; PPW holds nine task orders with $980 thousand in combined potential value visible in the recent window. The GSA Region 5 Regional Construction IDIQ, a $50 million multiple-award contract set aside for total small business with coverage across Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin, carries 15 task orders worth $69.7 million combined potential value, with task orders capped at $1 million. PPW also appears on the Air Force Reserve Command IDIQ FA665618D0001 (10 task orders, $2.8 million) and the Army Corps of Engineers IDIQ W912P419D0001 (4 task orders, $11.9 million). Representative work includes a $2.39 million Glenn Research Center delivery order (January 28, 2025) for design and build of a collaboration and briefing center facility with demolition, structural framing, HVAC removal and installation, plumbing, electrical, flooring, and building automation scope; a $3.13 million Defense Commissary Agency definitive contract (May 16, 2024) for Wright Patterson Air Force Base commissary roof replacement covering 130,000 square feet of built-up roof system replacement; a $1.54 million Glenn Research Center roof repair delivery order (July 1, 2025) at Building 39 with RGT Services LLC (The Fowler Company) subcontracted for electrical work; and a $676 thousand Marshall Space Flight Center delivery order (August 29, 2025) for air handler and energy recovery ventilator replacement in Building 4315.

Activity has accelerated year over year from one award in 2022 to twelve in 2024, with eight awards to date in 2026. Nine awards worth $2.1 million in combined potential value face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing moderate recompete exposure. The vendor's primary capability portfolio centers on commercial and institutional building construction (104 awards), with secondary exposure in heavy and civil engineering construction and specialty trades. Work scope spans restroom renovations, HVAC installations and replacements, roof repairs and replacements, pavement maintenance, utilities upgrades, fire system work, structural framing, electrical and plumbing installation, and facility retro-commissioning across federal R&D centers, courthouse renovations, military facilities, and NASA installations. Subcontractor relationships visible in recent awards include Crazeweld LLC (a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business) for mechanical and piping work, Scaffco Scaffolding and Supply Co. for scaffolding services, OCP Contractors Inc. for drywall and ceiling work, Duct Fabricators Inc. for HVAC fabrication, and Precision Environmental Co for demolition services.
