Walters Construction Company, Incorporated

Walters Construction Company, Incorporated Walters Construction Division, a small disadvantaged business based in Laurel, Mississippi, delivers road maintenance, repair, and reconstruction services to the USDA Forest Service as a prime contractor, operating exclusively under small-business set-asides and full-and-open delivery orders against Forest Service regional IDCs in Mississippi.

Walters Construction competes entirely as a prime (100% of recent awards) and holds no subcontract work. The vendor is a for-profit corporate entity self-certified as a small disadvantaged business with a footprint centered on highway and bridge construction (NAICS 541512; 18 awards) and support activities for forestry (14 awards), reflected in PSC coding that emphasizes maintenance of highways, roads, streets, bridges, and railways (25 awards) alongside natural resources and conservation work. Concrete recent work includes a $321.5 million delivery order from USDA Forest Service Southern Region (Region 8) for repaving the Turkey Fork Recreation Area's boat ramp parking lot and day-use access road under the Great American Outdoors Act program (awarded May 29, 2024); a $148.3 million delivery order for culvert removal and replacement at Turkey Fork Recreation Area (awarded August 8, 2025, under a modification); a $106.2 thousand delivery order for Chickasawhay Road maintenance (awarded July 1, 2026); and a $212.5 thousand delivery order for repairs to the Little Tiger ATV Trailhead and access road (awarded September 28, 2022, also GAOA-funded).

Customer concentration is extreme and narrow. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service R8-Southern Region accounts for 33 of 36 awards (92% of total potential value of $7.2 million). The Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission and the Department of Agriculture Forest Service (non-regional) together account for three awards with no stated dollar value. Walters Construction operates under four parent IDCs with the Forest Service Southern Region: IDC AG447UC150021 (11 task orders, $1.3 million combined potential value), IDC 12447U20D0006 (7 task orders, $891 thousand), IDC 12445124D0022 (5 task orders, $805 thousand), and IDC AG447UC130102 (1 task order, $262 thousand). The vendor holds a $400,000 small-business set-aside IDC awarded May 29, 2024, for road maintenance, repair, and construction services across Bienville, Chickasawhay, and DeSoto National Forests in Mississippi, with ultimate completion April 30, 2027.

Activity is episodic. The vendor received three awards in 2022, one in 2023, four in 2024, one in 2025, and one in 2026, with combined dollars obligated at $3.7 million (51% of combined potential value). Two awards with combined potential value of $232 thousand reach completion within the next twenty-four months, creating modest recompete exposure.
