R&I Construction, Inc.

R&I Construction, Inc., a women-owned small business (WOSB) certified as an Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB) and headquartered in Aiea, Hawaii, operates as a prime contractor delivering facility repair, maintenance, and construction services to federal agencies in the Pacific region, with dominant concentration in Army installation infrastructure work. The company is Asian-Pacific American owned, self-certifies as a minority-owned and small disadvantaged business, and competes under both set-aside and full-and-open categories, with total small business and woman-owned small business set-asides anchoring much of its prime work.

R&I Construction's federal portfolio centers on roofing repair and replacement, paving and road maintenance, interior and exterior painting, electrical systems work, and miscellaneous building repairs at military installations across Hawaii. Recent representative prime awards include a $3.54 million Total Small Business delivery order for Denny Road repaving at Schofield Barracks (Army Pacific Region, July 2025), a $2.32 million firm-fixed-price contract for Building 585 renovation at Schofield (Army, February 2024), a $2.2 million Total Small Business order for Trimble Road repaving (Army Pacific, August 2025), and a $1.53 million roof replacement order for Buildings 130, 131, and 132 at Schofield (Army, September 2025). The company also holds a $597,600 single-award IDC for high voltage electrical systems support at U.S. Army Garrison Hawaii (awarded March 2025, runs through March 2027) and performs work on GSA-managed federal buildings in Hawaii through the Public Building Service Region 9 Multiple Award Construction Contract (MACC).

Customer concentration is extreme: the Army Installation Management Command Pacific Region dominates 467 of 543 total awards (86% of volume) and $571.3 million of the $643.1 million combined potential value across the entire portfolio (89%). The General Services Administration's Public Buildings Service Region 9 ranks second with 10 awards carrying $51.8 million in potential value, followed by Army Pacific Command (20 awards, $6.5 million), Army Corps of Engineers (2 awards, $4.3 million), and the Air Force Pacific Air Forces (5 awards, $1.2 million). The remaining 25 customer agencies represent marginal activity.

R&I Construction holds five major parent contract vehicles anchoring its delivery order flow. The largest is the $275 million Hawaii Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) with Army Installation Management Command Pacific Region for repair and alteration of miscellaneous buildings, designated for woman-owned small businesses through July 2029 (awarded July 2024), which generated a sample of task orders covering interior repairs, security gates, shower installations, and golf course lighting work. The company also holds a $41.3 million single-award IDC for open-end paving services at Army installations (awarded September 2023, runs through September 2026), with 26 delivery orders issued through September 2025 totaling approximately $17.5 million. Three additional single-award Army IDCs support painting ($13.7 million ceiling, Competitive 8(a), December 2022 through November 2026), roofing repair work, and miscellaneous building repair and alteration services. The GSA Region 9 MACC (multiple-award, construction and repairs) carries a $50 million ceiling and has generated 10 task orders for federal civilian facility work including federal building renovations, ADA door installations, and conference room work.

Activity has remained relatively flat across the recent five-year window: 63 awards in 2022, climbing to a peak of 87 in 2023, then moderating to 78 in 2024 and falling to 38 in 2025 and 35 in 2026 (year-to-date through September). The recompete cliff shows 31 awards with ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months carrying a combined potential value of $15.4 million—a moderate recompete exposure, with the bulk of this exposure tied to task orders under the larger IDIQs rather than to parent vehicle expiration.

Service Contract Inventory activity captured in federal contracts above $150,000 shows SCI-reported invoicing of $3.1 million across FY2022–FY2024, with a span of 0.4 to 0.7 FTEs delivered in any given fiscal year. Median government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable prime records ran around $2,295/hour, with rates ranging from roughly $638/hour at the low end to over $7,090/hour for specialized labor. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors accounted for an average 25% share of total contractor hours, with seven named subcontractors reported in the source dataset—indicating the vendor builds its own delivery teams for the majority of work but engages subs selectively on specialized scope.

R&I Construction reported one sub-award in the source: chilled water pipe replacement work subcontracted to JBA Construction LLC (prime: JBA Construction, June 2025). The near-total absence of sub work in the portfolio reflects the vendor's posture as a prime-focused contractor, using subs for narrow technical work rather than operating as a feeder to larger primes.

The vendor's work is concentrated geographically across Oahu and Hawaiian military installations—Schofield Barracks, Fort Shafter, Wheeler Army Airfield, Aliamanu Military Reservation, Tripler Army Medical Center, and Helemano Military Reservation dominate task order placement. The contractor has established itself as a regional infrastructure provider for Pacific Region military facility maintenance, with demonstrated multi-year continuity on paving, roofing, painting, and electrical work across Army installations and a presence on civilian federal building maintenance through GSA.
