COATESVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA — Green Build USA LLC, doing business as Federal Contracting Protocol, won a $10.9 million Navy contract to maintain and repair roofing at a Philadelphia military site, as announced on war.gov.

The firm-fixed-price, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity award totals $10.9 million and runs through August 2031, according to war.gov. The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Philadelphia Division, competitively procured the deal through the System for Award Management website and received four offers.

Work will proceed at the Philadelphia Naval Business Center, the former Philadelphia Naval Shipyard that now houses Navy engineering and logistics operations. Fiscal 2026 Navy overhead funds of $69,600 will be obligated at the time of award, and those funds will not expire at the end of the fiscal year.

Green Build USA, headquartered in Coatesville, Pennsylvania, is a small disadvantaged business founded in August 2007 and federally registered in June 2014, according to highergov.com. Roofing contractors make up 70 percent of the firm’s federal work, and the company has collected more than $4.4 million in federal contracts across its history, according to highergov.com. This single award more than doubles the company’s lifetime federal contract value.

The deal is the company’s first recorded award of 2026, and it lifts Green Build USA’s contract value for the year to $10,877,052, according to firestore contract records. It ranks as the ninth Department of Defense contract awarded in Pennsylvania during 2026.

Sustainment contracts keep older military facilities operational without the cost of new construction. Taxpayers fund the upkeep, and the Navy retains use of a base that once built battleships and aircraft carriers. Small contractors benefit from a steady revenue stream, while larger construction firms lose access to a set-aside pool reserved for smaller companies.

Measured against the wider Navy portfolio, this award sits near the bottom. The 2026 Navy year-to-date maximum reached $8 billion, while the year-to-date minimum stood at $9,046,496, according to firestore contract records. The contract landed among six Department of Defense awards issued nationwide on July 28, 2026.

For the average reader, the contract signals routine spending on facility maintenance rather than a new weapons program. It affects a single Philadelphia complex and the workers who service its buildings, with no direct effect on household costs.

This has happened before. Green Build USA has repeatedly won federal roofing and construction work, including a spot on the William J. Hughes Technical Center construction vendor list valued at $291.3 million in ceiling capacity, according to highergov.com. Its prior awards ranged from $291,121 in 2020 to $1.6 million in 2023.

The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Philadelphia Division, will issue task orders under the indefinite-delivery structure as roofing needs arise. A date for the first delivery order has not been announced.

The Philadelphia Naval Business Center carries a long military lineage that stretches beyond routine repairs. The Philadelphia Naval Shipyard opened in 1801 and built warships for more than 150 years, including the battleship USS New Jersey, commissioned in 1943. The yard closed as an active shipbuilding base in 1996, ending nearly two centuries of naval construction, and its buildings now depend on contracts like this one to remain standing.

This contract represents the 1st contract awarded to Green Build USA LLC, doing business as Federal Contracting Protocol, in 2026, bringing the company’s total contract value for the year to $10,877,052. It is also the 9th Department of Defense contract awarded in Pennsylvania during 2026. Because this is the first award to Green Build USA LLC, doing business as Federal Contracting Protocol recorded in the database, it establishes the company’s initial benchmark within the Navy portfolio. Specifically, it falls between the 2026 Navy portfolio’s year-to-date minimum of $9,046,496 and maximum of $8,000,000,000. Overall, this award was announced among 6 Department of Defense contracts issued nationwide on July 28, 2026.
