Dj&A, P.C.

Dj&A, P.C., a Missoula, Montana-based Subchapter S Corporation, is a small business architectural and engineering firm that delivers design, surveying, construction management, and geospatial services to federal land management and transportation agencies as a prime contractor across the western United States. The firm operates predominantly in the full-and-open competitive space, with selective use of total small business set-asides; nearly all awards are primes (100% of 1,723 tracked awards), reflecting Dj&A's capability to win on its own merits rather than through teaming.

Dj&A's customer base concentrates heavily on federal land management. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service's Northern Region (Region 1) places the most individual task orders (351 awards, $47.9 million combined potential value), followed by the Federal Highway Administration (207 awards, $224 million combined potential value) and the National Park Service Intermountain Region (173 awards, $60.9 million combined potential value). However, the National Park Service National Office dominates dollar value, anchoring $466 million of the $1.2 billion total portfolio — a signal that large-dollar Yosemite, Grand Teton, and Yellowstone water system and facility rehabilitation projects drive revenue concentration. The top five customers account for 71% of combined potential value, indicating strong agency reliance but also meaningful diversification across Forest Service regions, the Federal Highway Administration, and the Bureau of Reclamation.

Activity has declined year over year: from 109 awards in 2022 to just 26 in the first half of 2026, with only 49 awards in 2025. This trajectory suggests either narrower solicitation eligibility, shifted procurement strategies by customer agencies, or pipeline compression heading into a recompete cliff. Sixty-two awards worth $24.3 million complete within the next twenty-four months, creating immediate recompete exposure.

Dj&A's service portfolio centers on five core capabilities: architectural and engineering design (1,199 awards under NAICS 541330), surveying and mapping (257 awards under NAICS 541370), environmental consulting (30 awards under NAICS 541620), bridge engineering and load ratings, and water and wastewater system design and rehabilitation. The firm holds major indefinite delivery contracts that anchor task order volume: a $60 million IDIQ with the Federal Highway Administration (2025–2030) for full-service A&E design services, a $70 million multiple-award geospatial services contract with the Forest Service (2024–2029), a $25 million boundary surveying IDIQ with the Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region (2024–2029), a $16 million Bureau of Reclamation contract (2025–2030) across Interior Region 9, and a $400 million National Park Service nationwide A&E contract (2026–2031). These vehicles enable rapid task order issuance without repeat competitions, critical for federal land management agencies managing deferred maintenance and disaster recovery.

On the GSA Schedule (47QRAA24D00EW, effective through September 2029, $5.68 million ceiling), Dj&A staffs 14 labor categories spanning environmental technicians, scientists, and senior project managers at hourly rates from $73.35 (Accounting Assistant) to $188.00 (Senior Environmental Project Manager). No security-cleared positions are offered; the portfolio targets civilian infrastructure and environmental work, not defense. Recent SCI reporting shows $29.1 million invoiced across federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold over FY2022–2024 (FY2024: $10.5 million across 18.9 FTEs as prime). SCI-reported median government-paid rates averaged $208.15/hr, with the 90th percentile at $822.47/hr, suggesting a mix of staff-augmentation and labor-hour design tasks alongside firm fixed-price delivery orders.

Dj&A operates as a pure prime across its federal footprint; subcontracting is minimal (6 sub-awards of 1,723 total, or 0.3%), and SCI data shows subcontractors account for only 9% of contractor hours on prime contracts. Named subs include HDR Engineering (for design support on National Park Service water system projects) and similarly situated GIS and surveying firms. The three subsidiaries—Precision Surveys Inc. (Small Disadvantaged Business), Jde-Dj&A LLC, and Woodland Solutions Group LLC—appear to be holding structures rather than operating divisions with separate federal footprints; they do not appear as named awardees in the source material.

Set-aside usage is mixed. Dj&A wins both full-and-open and total small business set-aside awards across its portfolio. The two largest IDIQs (Forest Service $70 million geospatial and Forest Service Pacific Northwest $25 million boundary surveying) are explicitly total small business set-asides, anchoring recurring revenue from Region 1 and Region 6. The Federal Highway Administration's $60 million contract carries no set-aside, reflecting its breadth and the breadth of agencies placing task orders. The National Park Service $400 million contract (awarded March 2026) also carries no set-aside, suggesting Dj&A competed full-and-open and won outright. Across the award footprint, approximately 35–40% of tracked task orders cite total small business set-asides, the remainder full-and-open.

Dj&A is a specialized, focused player in a narrow segment: western federal infrastructure, water systems, and landscape-level geospatial and engineering services. The firm has no stated involvement in IT services, federal IT contracts, or defense work. Its customer agencies are civilian land and resource managers. Recent momentum is declining, recompete exposure is material, and the $400 million NPS IDIQ (awarded in March 2026) will likely dominate near-term focus and revenue opportunity.

DJ&A is a full service civil engineering, planning and surveying firm. Services: transportation, structural, bridges, utilities, water, sewer, site development, environmental, surveying, mapping, GIS, project management, inspection, right-of-way.
