AHTNA DESIGN-BUILD

What AHTNA DESIGN-BUILD does

Ahtna Design-Build, Inc. is a private federal design-build construction and environmental services firm headquartered in Irvine, California, and operating nationwide in the United States. Established in 2010 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ahtna, Incorporated (an Alaska Native Owned Corporation), the company delivers civil and infrastructure construction (levees, fuel systems, utilities), airfield renovation and paving, integrated design-build construction and renovation, and environmental consulting to federal agency clients led by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (notably the Omaha District) and the Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC RE&C). Marquee projects include the $59M L-594 Missouri River levee repairs, a $23M airfield paving project at Travis AFB, and a $25M Dormitory 350 renovation at McConnell AFB.

The business model is project-based federal contracting pursued through competitive bids and IDIQ (Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity) contract vehicles. The company holds 15 multi-year IDIQ contracts with combined capacity exceeding $6B and has executed more than $300M in government contracts across key federal agencies. Its regulatory moat stems entirely from its Alaska Native Owned Corporation status, which provides eligibility for Small Disadvantaged Business set-asides and the 8(a) program, and its channel access advantage is reinforced by an existing IDIQ backlog that lowers re-compete friction on follow-on task orders. Operational scale is delivered through a lean prime-contractor model (1-10 disclosed employees) supported by subcontractors and a joint venture with Ahtna Marine & Construction that adds marine construction capability for larger integrated pursuits. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; contracts are obtained through federal procurement processes on a project-specific basis.
