DIEGO GARCIA, British Indian Ocean Territory — The U.S. Navy has expanded its construction efforts at Naval Support Facility (NSF) Diego Garcia, awarding a $70 million firm-fixed-price, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract modification to five joint venture firms.

- ECC Diego Garcia LLC, Burlingame, California
- JSK Diego Services LLC, Fort Worth, Texas
- MVL Bromgrove JV LLC, Houston, Texas
- Parsons-Colas UKP JV, Centreville, Virginia
“This award underscores the scale and importance of Diego Garcia as a long-term strategic hub. Expanding construction capacity there is vital for U.S. operations in the Indian Ocean,” - POC
This modification raises the total combined cumulative value of the contractors’ awards to $518 million and provides additional capacity for construction services at the strategically vital installation. Work under the agreement will include commercial and institutional building construction and is expected to continue through September 2026.
According to the Navy, no funds were obligated at the time of award; obligations will occur on individual task orders as work is assigned. The Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) Far East will oversee the projects.
NSF Diego Garcia remains one of the most important U.S. forward-operating locations in the Indo-Pacific, providing critical support for naval and air operations across the region.
The expanded capacity ensures continued investment in base infrastructure, reinforcing Diego Garcia’s role as a cornerstone of U.S. military presence in the Indo-Pacific.
