Davcon Inc.

Davcon Inc., a Virginia Beach-based heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning contractor and for-profit Subchapter S corporation, delivers HVAC system replacement, installation, and mechanical infrastructure services to the Department of the Navy as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides (90% of recent awards) and as a subcontractor to larger federal primes. The company is registered small business with primary NAICS 2382110 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors) and PSC codes aligned to building repair and mechanical equipment maintenance.

Davcon's customer footprint is heavily concentrated within the Navy. The top five customer agencies (spanning Department of the Navy organizational units) account for 84% of recent award volume, dominated by the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) Mid-Atlantic, which has funded 23 awards totaling $251.2 million combined potential value. The Department of the Navy Installations Command (CNIC) anchors a second tier with 39 awards valued at $15.2 million. This concentration reflects Davcon's geographic specialization in the Hampton Roads, Virginia area of responsibility. The two rankings align tightly—NAVFAC dominates both volume and dollars—with no tension between order frequency and value magnitude.

Davcon's primary vehicle is a $150 million indefinite delivery contract for HVAC and Mechanical Construction Services in Hampton Roads, awarded by NAVFAC Mid-Atlantic on September 13, 2024, under total small business set-aside, running through September 12, 2029. Six delivery orders have been issued under this IDC as of May–September 2025, totaling approximately $3.95 million, with individual task orders anticipated to range between $50,000 and $2.5 million. Representative prime work includes a $1.479 million September 2025 delivery order from CNIC to replace three air handling units at Naval Station Portsmouth Building 184; a $1.075 million September 2025 delivery order from U.S. Pacific Fleet Forces to replace an administrative HVAC unit at Building 1556, Portsmouth, Virginia; and a $481.4 thousand April 2026 delivery order from NAVFAC for replacement of direct digital controls systems at unaccompanied housing facilities. Task orders carry firm fixed-price pricing and completion dates extending through June 2026. Davcon also holds position on indefinite delivery contracts N4008518D1149 (64 task orders, $21.5 million potential value) and NNL13AA14C, which covers center maintenance, operations, and engineering at NASA Langley Research Center. Scope across these vehicles encompasses chiller replacements, air handling unit installations, mini-split system deployments, boiler feed water pump replacements, and mechanical room repairs at naval facilities, unaccompanied housing, and fire-fighting training schools across the Hampton Roads and wider Virginia footprint.

Activity trajectory has been volatile. Davcon issued twelve awards in 2022, twelve in 2023, declined to four in 2024, rebounded to eight in 2025, and dropped to four year-to-date in 2026. The company faces minimal recompete pressure: only two awards with ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $686 thousand.

In its subcontractor role, Davcon performs HVAC and plumbing work under Southeast Cherokee Construction, Inc. (seven sub awards spanning facility demolition, fire alarm repair, and interior office repairs), Amentum Technology, Inc. (two sub awards for chiller and equipment replacement at NASA Langley's Center Maintenance, Operations, and Engineering contract), and Vanar Eastern Jv1, LLC (drainage and AC installation at Naval Station Norfolk and Naval Support Activity Hampton Roads). Service Contract Inventory data is sparse—only twelve SCI records across FY2022–FY2025, with zero invoiced revenue recorded on prime contracts and estimated workforce of 1.8–4.9 FTEs annually on named sub engagements—indicating that most of Davcon's federal work is either below the $150,000 SCI reporting threshold, classified, or not captured in SCI's service-contract scope. Davcon operates predominantly as a prime, with 90% of its recent awards as primary contractor; subcontracting is episodic rather than structural to the business model.
