Black Construction

What Black Construction does

Black Construction Corporation (BCC) is a privately held general construction contractor headquartered in Harmon, Guam, operating as a subsidiary of Tutor Perini Corporation. Founded in 1960 and with over 50 years of continuous presence in the Western Pacific, the company serves U.S. federal government and military clients — including the Navy, Air Force, Army, and Missile Defense Agency — as its primary customer base, alongside commercial, institutional, and public infrastructure customers. Operations span Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI), the Federated States of Micronesia, Palau, the Philippines, Wake Island, American Samoa, and Diego Garcia in the British Indian Ocean Territory, executed through offices, shops, warehouses, quarries, concrete plants, and precasting facilities on each island of operation.

BCC delivers integrated construction services across twelve core lines: design-build, commercial, federal government/military, infrastructure development, institutional, residential, industrial, mechanical/electrical, public works, renovation, international, and tenant improvement. The company self-performs the majority of work using an in-house mechanical and electrical division covering plumbing, HVAC, power distribution, fire protection, and communication systems, and operates the largest equipment fleet in the region valued at over $16 million. It holds AISC Certified Erector, Accredited Quality Contractor (AQC, 2018/2019/2021), and BCSP Sapphire Certification Champion credentials, and has won multiple Guam Contractors Association Excellence in Construction Awards.

Revenue is generated primarily through project-based, one-time contracts secured via competitive bidding on federal work and negotiated agreements on commercial projects. The company executes as a prime contractor directly or through its Black Construction-Tutor Perini joint venture, which secured a $106 million bachelor officer quarters contract at Marine Corps Base Camp Blaz in 2022 and a $56 million enlisted dining facility contract in 2021. Tracked federal contract awards totaled $488.3 million from 2000 to 2016, and the company is financially supported by the balance sheets of Tutor Perini (parent), Tutor-Saliba, and AIG, with workforce resourcing supplemented by recruiting from the Philippines.
