Management Commentary
“We are proud to be recognized with new contract awards that reflect the trust our partners place in us. These achievements are a testament to the strength of our team, our commitment to the highest safety standards, and the progress we are making in expanding our business development pipeline,” said Travis Boone, Chief Executive Officer of Orion Group Holdings, Inc. “Our strong delivery and consistent execution have enabled us to successfully expand our client relationships and Port Tampa Bay is a good example. For many years, we have been their longstanding partner for maintenance dredging and new construction projects. We are pleased to play a role in their expansion initiatives aimed at enhancing the port’s capacity and efficiency.”
Boone continued, “In our Concrete business, we continue to see strong demand, supported by the next phase of a large data center project and several projects in our home state. With our strong reputation and robust pipeline, we are well positioned for continued growth.”
New Contracts
Orion’s Marine business recently secured $67 million in new wins. For Weyerhaeuser Company, Orion Marine was awarded the Longview Export Dock Replacement project. This work involves removing the existing timber Berth A structure and replacing it with a new concrete structure supported by large-diameter steel pipe piles. The project is expected to last 12 months and will begin in the third quarter of 2025.
In addition, Orion Marine won two projects with the Port of Tampa Bay. The first award is a 3-year maintenance dredging contract for the Port, estimated to begin work in September 2025. The second contract is for the Port Redwing Berth 301 Wharf project – a crucial project given the rapid population growth in the Tampa Bay region and the increasing demand for construction and bulk materials.
Orion Concrete won $33 million in new contract awards, including a data center project in Iowa, the Harris County Sheriff’s Office Complex in Houston as a subcontractor for Durotech, Inc., and the foundation of a cold storage facility for U.S. Foods. These projects will commence in the third quarter of 2025 with an estimated duration of one year. In addition, the Company was recently awarded a contract with the City of Ingleside wastewater treatment plant as a subcontractor to Associated Construction Partners. This project is expected to begin in December of 2025 with a duration of 12 months.
