Federal construction opportunities in Pennsylvania
Where federal construction money in Pennsylvania is headed: the GSA leases coming up for renewal, the contract vehicles construction is ordered through, and which of them reach the end of their ordering period soon.
Federal construction in Pennsylvania is bought three ways. The Department of War orders military construction and facility repair through USACE districts, NAVFAC commands and installation contracting offices. The Department of Veterans Affairs buys medical center and cemetery work through its network contract offices. GSA Public Buildings Service buys work on federal courthouses, office buildings and ports of entry — and, on leased space, the building owner buys the tenant improvement work when a lease is renewed or replaced.
Most of that work is ordered as task orders under multiple-award contracts, which only current seat holders can bid. That is why the dates below matter: when a vehicle reaches the end of its ordering period, the seats open again.
