All DOE Contracts — June 04, 2026

As a cost-plus-award-fee contract, SURATECH LLC faces limited profit upside but also minimal downside risk. However, execution delays or cost overruns at TJNAF could impact subcontractors or future DOE facility awards.

This single $113.3M award represents 100% of the analyzed period's total obligation, creating a concentration risk in the digest's sample. However, the DOE's broader contracting portfolio is far more diversified.

The 5-year, $115.7M TJNAF management contract signals sustained DOE investment in nuclear physics R&D infrastructure. Publicly traded firms providing specialized equipment, IT systems, or engineering services to TJNAF may see subcontracting opportunities.

The cost-plus-award-fee contract to SURATECH LLC for TJNAF operations exemplifies the DOE's pattern of long-term, mission-critical facility management awards. These contracts are typically well-funded and resistant to budget cuts due to their role in national scientific infrastructure.
