Surangel & Sons Construction

Surangel & Sons Construction, a veteran-owned small business based in Koror, Palau, operates as a prime contractor (96% of recent awards) delivering logistics, transportation, construction materials, and equipment rental services to U.S. Department of Defense agencies and civilian organizations operating in the Pacific theater. The company competes exclusively in full-and-open solicitations with no set-aside designations, leveraging its strategic position in Palau as a local service provider for sustained military operations and exercises.

Surangel & Sons Construction's capability portfolio centers on fuel delivery, barge and cargo transportation, limestone and construction aggregates, equipment rental with operators, and logistics support across airport and seaport operations. Recent representative work includes a $3.3 million firm fixed-price purchase order from the Department of the Navy (awarded February 2025) for aggregate material delivery under the MCED-P 25.1 contract, a $776,286.76 Marine Corps purchase order (May 2024) for transportation services supporting Valiant Shield 24, a $390,801.17 Army Pacific Command purchase order (July 2025) for customs clearing, husbandry, linehaul, and material handling equipment services, and a $872,400 Marine Corps award (April 2023) for 2-inch minus limestone aggregate. The company also delivers bulk fuel—diesel and automotive gasoline—through repeated Defense Logistics Agency Energy awards ranging from $11,000 to $101,000 per contract.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward Pacific-based military operations. The top five customer agencies account for 93% of recent awards by count and 97% by potential value. The United States Marine Corps leads by award count (23 awards, $3.6 million combined potential value), followed by the Defense Logistics Agency Energy (16 awards, $699 thousand), but the Department of the Navy anchors the largest dollar share (6 awards, $4.3 million combined potential value). Army Pacific Command (5 awards, $1.1 million) and Naval Supply Systems Command round out the active set. The concentration gap between volume and dollars reflects Surangel & Sons' role as a high-frequency supplier of small-value fuel purchases alongside fewer, larger aggregate and transportation contracts.

Activity has grown substantially year over year—four awards in 2022 to a peak of seventeen in 2024—with thirteen awards placed in 2025 and one award in early 2026. The company's recent award pace reflects consistent demand from Pacific theater military exercises and operations; no recompete cliff data is provided in the source. Surangel & Sons operates as a subcontractor on Navy Expeditionary Forces Regional Services Contract II (NEFRSC II) under prime Amentum Services, Inc., supplying truck rental and 80-ton mobile crane rental with operator support across Southeast Asia, South Asia, and Oceania during the 2025 base period. This represents the company's limited sub footprint (2 awards, 4% of total), with all other work secured as direct prime awards.

Place of performance is Palau for all documented awards, with no federal contract vehicles (GWACs, BPAs, or agency-wide IDIQs) identified in the source. All 54 prime awards are individual purchase orders issued through full-and-open competition. The company's business is almost entirely transactional—short-cycle purchase orders for fuel, materials, and event-support services rather than indefinite-quantity or multi-year blanket arrangements. This posture creates recurring opportunity in Pacific military exercise cycles (Valiant Shield, Valiant Castle) and sustained logistics demand from DLA Energy but limits revenue predictability and vehicle-based competitive leverage against larger federal contractors pursuing GWAC or schedule-based platforms.
