About general construction contracts
Government contracts for general construction span every level of public buying, from federal task orders down to county and municipal awards. At the federal level the work is concentrated under NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), with related work also classified under 236210 (Industrial Building Construction) and 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction), and the most active customers are the Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC), and GSA. The same buyer mix repeats year after year, which makes general construction firms a relatively predictable category to bid into once you know where the recurring spend lives.
Across the federal, state, and local sources ContractRadar tracks, there are 2,904 open general construction contracts currently posting across 75 states, with 2208 added in the last 30 days. At that volume a focused vendor can build a year-round pipeline from public-sector work alone, even before factoring in subcontracting opportunities under prime-held IDIQs. Nationally, the most active buyers of this work are DEPT OF THE ARMY (409 open posts) and DEPT OF THE NAVY (200); the remainder splits across federal civilian agencies, DoD components, and state and local departments.
Many awards run as multiple-award task-order contracts (MATOCs), which reward small construction firms that win a seat on the panel — these set-asides regularly favor 8(a), HUBZone, and SDVOSB general contractors over national primes. Beyond federal posts, every state runs its own procurement program with separate registration, certification, and bid-board rules — ContractRadar pulls SAM.gov together with state and local feeds so a general construction firm can monitor every market from one inbox instead of logging into a dozen portals each morning. Drill into any state below to see the open general construction contracts, top buyers, and posting cadence in that specific market.
