Tuckman-Barbee's federal contract award history demonstrates extensive experience delivering high-value construction and renovation services across multiple Navy commands. The contractor has received 13 prime federal contract delivery orders totaling approximately $125 million since 2021, funded primarily by Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC), Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), Naval Air Systems Command, and Navy Installations Command. Notable projects include a $20.9 million clean room laboratory renovation at the Naval Research Laboratory's Compound Semiconductor Production Facility in Washington, D.C. (total small business set-aside); a $17.8 million renovation of Building 164 at Naval Surface Warfare Center Indian Head, Maryland; a $11.9 million addition and repair to Crash Rescue Station #2 in Washington, D.C.; a $9.6 million sonobuoy storage building and aircraft maintenance facility development at Naval Air Station Patuxent River; and a $20.9 million small business set-aside contract for facility modifications at the Naval Research Laboratory.

Most delivery orders have been issued on a firm fixed-price basis without set-aside designations, though several projects carry total small business or HUBZone set-aside designations, demonstrating the contractor's capability across diverse acquisition vehicles.

Tuckman-Barbee holds a primary indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract—the $498 million Small Business Multiple Award Construction Contract (SB MACC) awarded by Naval Facilities Engineering Command on July 7, 2021, with an ultimate completion date of July 6, 2026. This multiple award contract is designated as a total small business set-aside and authorizes the contractor to provide construction, repair, and renovation services for Navy and Marine Corps facilities located in the Annapolis, Patuxent River, South Potomac, and Andrews geographic service areas. The SB MACC vehicle was designed to support task orders ranging from $2 million to $15 million for individual projects, covering new construction, repair, and renovation work across multiple facility types. Under this primary IDIQ, Tuckman-Barbee has executed over $90 million in awarded task orders, with the majority of the delivery orders previously described issued under this vehicle. Additionally, the contractor operates under the Public Works Department Construction MACC 2019, a $240 million IDIQ contract vehicle that provides construction services across multiple federal agencies and installations, which has supported projects such as the Naval Research Laboratory Building X007 renovation under HUBZone set-aside designation and the WNY-112 Sail Loft renovation. The contract structure enables NAVFAC and other Navy commands to fulfill diverse construction requirements across regional installations while leveraging Tuckman-Barbee's established capability in specialized military construction and the small business set-aside mandate.
