Contractors share $30 million award for services

—  

Two Alabama small businesses will share a $30 million programmatic capacity Multiple Award Task Order Contract awarded by the U.S. Army Engineering and Support Center in Huntsville.

The contract was awarded to LTS Inc. of Huntsville and GTCS Inc. of Athens.

The center solicited all HUBZone firms, and two proposals were submitted.

The companies will perform work based on task orders they receive from the Huntsville Center. The period of performance is five years if all contract options are exercised.

The contract supports a wide variety of coordination and facilitation of efforts for master planning, requirements analysis, infrastructure studies, and programming documents for military installations, facilities, land, utilities, and related issues associated with internal “fence to fence” and external “military to civilian community” study efforts. Huntsville Center is the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ mandatory center of expertise for ranges and training lands.

GTCS President Nancy Turner did not return a phone message. A website for GTCS says the Athens company is a “SBA certified HUB Zone, woman owned small business.

“We are a young, dynamic, growing company that was founded in 2005 to provide military construction, planning and programming serves to the Department of Defense,” said a website statement. “Since that time, we have gradually expanded our services to become a registered Architectural Engineering company.

“We additionally provide construction management services under the General Services Administration’s Professional Engineering Services Schedule.

Besides the Corps of Engineers, the company also lists the DOD Health Services Agency, the Office of the Assistant Chief of Staff for Installation Management and the Huntsville Engineering Support Center as customers.

The company’s address is 809 U.S. 72 West, just east of Hine Street. The company also has an office in Madison.
