Some military construction awards present opportunities for subcontracting for established companies in Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands. Most recently, the Jacobs/B&M Joint Venture has been awarded a $46 million “firm-fixed price, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity architect-engineer services modification” to a previously awarded contract for design, engineering, specification writing, cost estimating, and related services. This award brings the total cumulative value of the contract to $145 million. Work will be performed in Guam and the Northern Marianas Islands, 75%; Hawaii, 5%; Diego Garcia, 5%; and Australia,15%; and will be completed by July 2025. Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Pacific made the award, according to a June 18 release from the U.S. Department of Defense.
