Arctic Directory: Tunista Construction awarded $14.4M in contracts

Tunista Construction LLC, a subsidiary of Calista Corp., said June 17 that it has received two construction contracts worth a total of $14.4 million. Tunista won a Small Business Administration 8(a) sole-source contract with a $4.2 million winning bid to add and alter the air support operations squadron training facility at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska. The second contract, also at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, was a competitive SBA 8(a) set-aside project awarded at $10.2 million to design and build a multipurpose machine gun range along side major subcontractors Brice Inc. and Alcan Electrical & Engineering. 

“We appreciate the fact that our reputation and solid bid structure was recognized by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers,” said Tunista General Manager Justin Robertson. “It will be gratifying to provide exceptional work for those who serve our country.”

Tunista, an SBA 8(a)-certified company, and Brice are both wholly-owned subsidiaries of Calista. The Brice companies were a recipient of the SBA Regional Small Business of the Year award in 2001.
