About the company

Rusty Bucket Construction LLC, an SBA-certified Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB) and HUBZone firm based in Los Angeles, California, delivers construction, repair, renovation, and maintenance services to civilian federal agencies entirely as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides. The company is minority-owned and self-certified as a small disadvantaged business, operating as a limited liability partnership with SBA Woman-Owned Small Business (WOSB) certification expiring October 22, 2028.

Rusty Bucket's capability portfolio spans commercial and institutional building construction, plumbing, heating and air-conditioning system work, electrical and fire-life-safety rehabilitation, roofing replacement, and facilities maintenance across multiple federal properties and infrastructure assets. Representative prime work includes a $498,310 metal roofing system replacement at the Placerville Nursery seed extractory for the Department of Agriculture Forest Service (awarded July 2026 under Total Small Business set-aside), a $540,000 wastewater and site utilities rehabilitation project at the Angell Job Corps Civilian Conservation Center in Oregon (awarded January 2026, USDA Forest Service Job Corps), a $1,026,000 roofing replacement contract for the Missoula Fire Sciences Laboratory funded under the Great American Outdoors Act (awarded September 2025, no set-aside used), and a $365,600 window and siding replacement order for the USACE Field Research Facility in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina (awarded July 2026 under Total Small Business set-aside). Work is performed at dispersed locations nationwide including California, Oregon, North Carolina, Kentucky, South Dakota, Arizona, Tennessee, and other states.

Customer concentration sits heavily with the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Job Corps program, which accounts for 15 awards (64% coverage) worth $11.9 million combined potential value. The Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command ranks second by dollars ($5.2 million across four awards, all delivery orders under a $5 million Basic Ordering Agreement effective August 2025 through August 2030), followed by the USDA Forest Service R5-Pacific Southwest Region (nine awards, $1.1 million) and the USDA Forest Service R3-Southwestern Region (seven awards, $791 thousand). Across the top five customer agencies by potential value, 83% of the combined potential value is concentrated, with USDA Forest Service Job Corps alone representing roughly 50% of the total portfolio.

Rusty Bucket holds three significant indefinite delivery vehicles anchoring its federal work. Two are single-award and multiple-award IDIQs issued by USDA Forest Service Job Corps, each valued at $5 million and running through 2029: the MT Zone Construction IDIQ (awarded June 2024, covering Colorado, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Utah) and the South East Construction IDIQ (awarded June 2024, covering Arkansas, Kentucky, Missouri, North Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia). A third vehicle is the Air Mobility Command Basic Ordering Agreement (multiple-award, $5 million ceiling, awarded August 2025, extending to August 2030), which is generating delivery orders for construction and facilities services at Air Force installations. Under these vehicles, Rusty Bucket has issued or received 11 task orders (IDC 1282A724D0004, $1.6 million combined), three task orders under the AMC BOA ($156 thousand), and two task orders under a second Forest Service IDIQ ($103 thousand).

Activity has trended upward, growing from 13 awards in 2023 to 27 in 2024, declining slightly to 9 in 2025, then recovering to 12 in the first seven months of 2026. Six awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry $2.2 million in combined potential value and represent near-term recompete exposure. The vendor competes exclusively under set-asides — all 61 prime awards carry either Total Small Business or 8(a) Competitive designations, with no full-and-open competition in the source portfolio. Pricing across recent awards runs predominantly firm fixed price, with work set under Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements on multiple USDA Forest Service projects. SCI-reported invoiced revenue for FY2025 totaled $14 thousand across two prime records, indicating that most of Rusty Bucket's federal work falls below the $150,000 SCI reporting threshold or is captured as goods and micro-purchases outside the SCI dataset; this figure should not be interpreted as the vendor's total federal services revenue or enterprise revenue.
