About TLI Construction, Inc.

TLI Construction, Inc., a Riverside, California-based Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB) and SBA 8(a) certified prime contractor, delivers airfield pavement maintenance, facility renovation, and infrastructure repair services almost exclusively to the U.S. Department of Defense and NASA. The firm is black American-owned, woman-owned, and self-certified as a small disadvantaged business, competing predominantly under 8(a) sole source and total small business set-aside awards across a portfolio dominated by delivery orders under a single $70 million indefinite delivery contract.

TLI Construction operates as a 100% prime contractor footprint—113 awards, all prime—with no subcontract work in the source record. The firm's capability portfolio is narrowly specialized: runway rubber removal, taxiway and pavement repair, crack sealing, slurry application, concrete pad construction, parking lot resurfacing, and facility modernization (roof replacement, electrical upgrades, HVAC systems, shower conversions, equipment installation). Recent representative work includes a $1.81 million total small business delivery order from Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC) for West Forbes Avenue repair at Edwards Air Force Base, a $4.88 million total small business delivery order for ramp 7 concrete expansion at Edwards AFB, a $2.5 million 8(a) sole source definitive contract from the U.S. Coast Guard for major maintenance and repair of a multi-mission building at Coast Guard Station Burlington, Vermont, and a $2.15 million 8(a) sole source contract from Space and Missile Systems Center for air handling unit upgrades at Schriever Space Force Base.

Customer concentration is extreme. Air Force Materiel Command dominates at 62 awards carrying $119.6 million in combined potential value—79% of the award count. However, the top-five customers by potential-value ranking are anchored by NASA Armstrong Flight Research Center's recent $450 million multiple-award IDC (2 awards, issued June 2026), which shifts the dollar profile sharply toward civilian space infrastructure. AFMC remains second at $119.6 million across 62 awards. The Army Corps of Engineers (Engineering District Los Angeles and headquarters combined) places 18 awards worth $16.5 million. The Navy Installations Command, Air National Guard, Air Force Space Command, and Coast Guard round out active agency relationships. The firm has worked with 23 distinct federal agencies across the portfolio.

TLI Construction holds five named indefinite delivery contracts. The anchor vehicle is AFMC's $70 million single-award IDC (FA930123D0005) for paving services at Edwards Air Force Base, running through September 2028, against which 60 delivery orders have been issued carrying $49.5 million in combined potential value. This contract underwrites the vast majority of AFMC task order work. The firm also holds four Army Corps of Engineers single-award IDCs valued at $2 million each for construction support primarily at Air Force Plant 42, Fort Irwin, and related Army facilities in the Los Angeles engineering district, with periods of performance extending into 2026–2028. The newly awarded NASA Armstrong multiple-award IDC ($450 million, June 2026) represents a significant vehicle expansion into civilian space infrastructure, though no task orders have been issued against it as of the summary date.

Activity has accelerated sharply. The firm recorded 5 awards in 2022, 19 in 2023, 43 in 2024, 32 in 2025, and 13 in the first half of 2026. Combined potential value across all awards stands at $613 million, though only $82.6 million (13%) has been obligated to date. Award completion clustering presents moderate recompete exposure: thirteen awards (combined potential value $17.9 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, concentrated in AFMC delivery orders at Edwards AFB and scattered Army Corps IDC task orders.

The firm's work is concentrated in two NAICS categories: Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction (66 awards) and Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (25 awards). PSC coding mirrors this—47 awards carry the "Repair Or Alteration Of Highways/Roads/Streets/Bridges/Railways" PSC, with the remainder split across building repair and alteration codes. The source identifies a subsidiary, Tli-Ace Co JV, LLC, self-certified as a small disadvantaged business, though no distinct award activity is attributed to it in the portfolio.

Set-aside posture is characteristic of the 8(a) and EDWOSB profile. Of awards with explicit set-aside designations, the majority are 8(a) sole source or total small business set-aside. A minority of recent AFMC delivery orders (approximately 30–40% of the contract count) carry no set-aside designation, suggesting either full-and-open competition or that the vendor's small business certifications were not leveraged for those particular orders. The firm's 8(a) certification expires December 16, 2029.
