For heavy civil contractors
Government contracts for heavy civil contractors
The federal government is the largest buyer of heavy civil work in the country — maintenance dredging, levees and floodwalls, bank stabilization and revetment, piers, docks and bulkheads, dam and spillway repair, beach nourishment and shoreline protection — under NAICS 237990, most of it through the Corps of Engineers, the Navy and the Park Service. YNTELRADAR takes each one from found to won: we score it against your equipment, bonding capacity and reach, read the plan-and-profile sheets, cross-sections, hydrographic surveys, geotechnical borings and the environmental windows and mandatory site visit that decide whether your season even fits, show what the government actually paid on comparable heavy civil awards and who won them, draft your proposal from the solicitation, and walk you through every step until the award. In English or Spanish.

Questions people in this trade ask
What NAICS code covers heavy civil and dredging contracts?
237990 — Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction. It's the catch-all for work that isn't a road, a building or a utility line: dredging, marine structures, levees, dams, shoreline protection and large-scale earthwork. It's the first filter a contracting officer applies and the first thing we score your feed against.
How many heavy civil contracts are open right now?
The live counter at the top of this page shows the open heavy civil solicitations in the corpus right now, plus roughly how many new ones post each week. It's a real count against active opportunities, not an estimate.
Who buys this work?
The Corps of Engineers is the single biggest buyer — navigation dredging, flood risk management, dams and locks — followed by NAVFAC, the Park Service, the Fish and Wildlife Service and NRCS watershed programs, plus port authorities and drainage districts at the local level. We pull all of them, so a dredging job posted by a port district shows up next to the Corps solicitation.
These jobs are big. Can a small contractor win one?
Many are set-asides, and a large share of the smaller work — bank stabilization, boardwalks, culverts, a single pier — sits well inside a small firm's bonding capacity. We show the set-aside and the bonding requirement on every opportunity so you can filter to the ones you can actually bond and staff.
Do you catch the environmental and seasonal restrictions?
Yes, and in this trade they decide the bid. In-water work windows, turtle and fish restrictions, dredged-material placement sites and permit conditions are buried in the specifications, not in the notice. We read the documents and surface those conditions with the deadline, so you price the season you're actually allowed to work.
