Davidson Brown, Inc.

Davidson Brown, Inc., a minority-owned, Black American-owned small disadvantaged business headquartered in Williamsburg, Virginia, delivers construction management advisory (CMA), cost estimating, inspection, and project controls services to federal civilian agencies exclusively as a prime contractor across a $608.7 million award portfolio. The firm operates under no set-aside designation on most work, competing full-and-open on the General Services Administration's Multiple Award Schedule and holding two GSA Public Buildings Service IDVs: a $500 million multiple-award BPA for construction management and related services (Region 3, through December 31, 2028) and a $2.5 million single-award small-business BPA for cost estimating services (Region 3, expired July 31, 2024).

Davidson Brown's customer base concentrates heavily in GSA regional property management. The top five funding agencies account for 88% of awards by count: GSA Public Buildings Service Region 2 leads with 86 awards ($34.8 million), followed by the National Capital Region (53 awards, $24.3 million) and Region 3 (23 awards, $511.7 million). However, Region 3's dollar concentration is outsized—it represents 84% of combined potential value across all awards, driven by the $500 million BPA ceiling and its task orders. The Department of Homeland Security Coast Guard (19 awards, $6.2 million) and the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts (5 awards, $731 thousand) round out active civilian agency relationships. GSA placements dominate: the Multiple Award Schedule carries 114 task orders worth $533.1 million in combined potential value; the Professional Services Schedule accounts for 52 task orders ($11.4 million); and the PBS Region 3 BPA itself generated 17 task orders ($2.8 million).

Concrete representative work includes a $619 thousand firm-fixed-price BPA call from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (October 2024–September 2026) for management and inspection services on a prospectus lease project in Washington, DC; a $561 thousand BPA call from the Department of Justice DEA (through September 2027) for design support and inspection at the 15010 Conference Center Drive facility in Chantilly, Virginia; a $394 thousand delivery order from the Coast Guard (March 2025) for construction inspection during the rebuild of Station Yankeetown in Inglis, Florida; a $1.11 million delivery order from the Coast Guard (May 2022, extended through June 2026) for construction inspection at the Sector/Station Key West rebuild; and a $367 thousand total-small-business BPA call from GSA National Capital Region (January 2024, extended through May 2026) for construction management on the Ronald Reagan Building Electrification Project. Recent activity includes a $78.6 thousand BPA call from the Internal Revenue Service (June 2026) for onsite breakrooms-refresh management at the New Carrollton Federal Building, Lanham, Maryland (ultimate completion February 2027).

Activity trajectory shows moderate growth: eight awards in 2022, thirteen in 2023, seventeen in 2024, declining to four in 2025 and one in 2026 (year-to-date as of June 15, 2026). Nine awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, carrying combined potential value of $3.5 million—a manageable recompete exposure. The source shows 212 total prime awards with no subcontract activity, establishing Davidson Brown as a direct deliverer rather than a teaming player; across SCI-reportable prime records (FY2022–FY2024), the vendor invoiced $1.8 million with an average sub-hours share of 0%, confirming all-prime delivery posture. FTE scale dropped from 5.0 in FY2022 to 0.2 in FY2024 in the SCI dataset, reflecting low threshold-crossing activity over that period.

Davidson Brown's labor portfolio on GSA Schedule spans nine categories priced from $81.61/hr (CAD Technician with high school education, one year experience) through $149.62/hr (Principal with bachelor's degree and twenty years experience), with a median government-paid rate around $97.30/hr on prime SCI contracts. Project Manager positions are offered at $113.35/hr; Lead Cost Estimators and Senior Schedulers command $126.05/hr. No positions require security clearance. Work is performed at customer sites nationwide, with administrative presence in Williamsburg, Virginia. The firm competes full-and-open on GSA vehicles rather than under 8(a) or other set-asides, though its minority-owned and small-disadvantaged-business certifications appear in award descriptions as selection rationale. Primary NAICS concentration sits in Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (138 awards) and Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services (62 awards), with PSC spread across facility support, engineering, program management, and building-inspection categories.
