Federal Construction & Infrastructure Contracts

By Gunpowder Editorial ·

1 total filings analysed

Executive Summary

A single $315 million firm-fixed-price delivery order from the U.S. Coast Guard (civilian agency) to Tutor Perini Corporation for the design and construction of a fuel pier and cutter mooring at Base Kodiak, AK, dominates the digest. This is a full-and-open competition award with a four-year performance period, providing predictable revenue but carrying execution risk typical of fixed-price infrastructure contracts.

The contract signals continued investment in strategic military construction by the Coast Guard, a civilian agency under DHS. The key watch item is Tutor Perini's ability to manage cost overruns on the fixed-price contract in a remote Alaska location.
