dck-ecc pacific guam, LLC Wins a $4 Billion Design-Build Multiple Award Construction Contract (MACC) with U.S. Navy

BURLINGAME, Calif., May 18 /PRNewswire/ -- dck-ecc pacific guam, LLC was one of seven contractors recently awarded a five-year (base plus four option years), $4 billion joint total acquisition value (JTAV) indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity Design-Build Multiple Award Construction Contract (DB-MACC).

The contract is the largest ever awarded by the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) Pacific, and will be used as the primary vehicle by which NAVFAC executes construction on Guam and other locations in support of the relocation of over 8,000 Marines from Okinawa to Guam. Projects under the DB-MACC may include barracks, dormitories, ranges, roads, streets, bridges, site utilities, infrastructure, piers, wharves, dredging, aviation facilities including hangars, runways and aprons, and facilities for administration, communication, education, medical, dining, recreational, retail, industrial, warehouse, operational training, and base development.

dck-ecc pacific guam, LLC was also awarded the first task order competed under the contract, a $24 million design-build project to deliver two facilities associated with submarine warfare training and operations, which is not part of the Guam build up for the relocation of Marines.  

"The dck-ecc team was formed as part of a three year planning effort to develop the best way to execute multiple actions in support of Guam as the Navy and Marine Corps implements the Defense Policy Review Initiative," says Chuck Kubic P.E., President of ECC's International Group.
