Dafore LLC

Dafore LLC, a Virginia-based limited liability company, provides interior construction services—drywall, demolition, framing, ceilings, and related finishes—exclusively as a subcontractor to federal general contractors, with seven sub-awards totaling $2.6 million obligated across federal agencies since 2021. The company operates 100% as a subcontractor with no prime contract or IDV positions; all work flows through Structural Engineering Group Inc., a single prime on whose subcontracts Dafore has performed interior renovation and buildout tasks across multiple agency locations.

Dafore's customer footprint is broadly distributed across civilian federal agencies with no concentration anchor. Seven distinct customer agencies appear across the seven awards—the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Homeland Security (US Secret Service), the Department of Justice (US Marshals Service Eastern Virginia), the Department of State, and others—each with a single award. This near-parity distribution reflects the project-specific, site-based nature of construction work rather than customer relationship depth. The combined $2.6 million obligated across all awards, distributed evenly across the seven sub-awards, represents sub-million individual project values typical of interior construction work on larger federal renovation initiatives.

Dafore's vehicle footprint shows concentration under two indefinite delivery contracts: IDC 47PM0518D0007 (five task orders) and IDC 47PD0320D0007 (two task orders). These are the contracting mechanisms through which Structural Engineering Group Inc. releases work to Dafore; the company itself does not hold or sit on any prime IDIQs, GWACs, or BPAs. Representative work includes interior renovation of Building H at the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine in Laurel, Maryland (plaster and gypsum board demolition, February 2024); drywall and ceiling work at the VA headquarters office for the Office of General Counsel in Washington, D.C. (May 2023); demolition, drywall, and insulation for the US Marshals Service Consolidated Case Management Facility project in Alexandria, Virginia (March 2023); and US Secret Service fifth-floor renovation work (drywall, ceiling, demolition, August 2022). All work is interior fit-and-finish on federal building renovation and optimization initiatives performed under construction management by Structural Engineering Group Inc.

Activity shows a spike in 2023 (four awards) following dormancy in 2021 and 2022, then declined to a single 2024 award. There is no recent activity in source data after February 2024, and no pipeline or recompete visibility. Dafore operates within NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and depends entirely on Structural Engineering Group Inc. for federal pipeline, teaming, and customer access.
