Remediation Government Contracts in Richmond, VA

Richmond's Remediation market outpaces most Virginia cities, with 7 active opportunities in Q2 2026 versus a state average of 4 per city. Richmond ranks as the most active market among Virginia cities for federal Remediation contracting. Above-average activity suggests growing federal investment in this area, making it a strong market for contractors building a Virginia pipeline.

At the state level, Department of the Navy leads Virginia's Remediation procurement at 36% of awards, followed by Defense Logistics Agency (21%). The distributed buying pattern means contractors can build a pipeline across Department of the Navy, Defense Logistics Agency, and Department of the Army without single-agency dependency. These statewide patterns are a strong indicator of the buying agencies active in the Richmond area. Statewide in Virginia, the incumbent landscape is entrenched: the top 3 vendors hold 67% of recent awards. New entrants should target recompete windows or set-aside opportunities rather than competing head-to-head on open solicitations.

Across Virginia, there are 10 Remediation contracts approaching recompete windows, worth an estimated $399.9M combined — any of which could create opportunity for contractors based in or targeting Richmond. The largest is a $116.8M contract with Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, currently held by SYSTEM HIGH CORPORATION, which carries a high takeover signal based on the agency's vendor switching history. 10 of these recompetes carry high takeover signals, suggesting real opportunity for new entrants to displace incumbents.
