Duvall Decker Architects, P.A

Duvall Decker Architects, P.A., a Jackson, Mississippi-based SBA-certified Women-Owned Small Business and self-certified Small Disadvantaged Business, provides architectural and engineering design, renovation, and construction services to federal agencies exclusively as a prime contractor under small business set-asides and full-and-open competition. The firm holds two single-award Indefinite Delivery Contracts worth $10 million each — one with the Department of the Air Force for Mississippi National Guard infrastructure projects (awarded August 2022, expiring August 2027) and one with the National Park Service National Office for nationwide NPS infrastructure maintenance programs (awarded July 2022, expiring July 2027) — which anchor its entire prime footprint and account for approximately 49 percent utilization of combined ceiling.

Duvall Decker's customer concentration is heavily weighted toward the Department of the Air Force, which funds twelve awards (12.6 million in combined potential value) and the Air National Guard, which funds eight awards (2.6 million), together representing 97 percent of recent awards by count. The Department of the Interior National Park Service National Office funds five awards (10.9 million in combined potential value), making it the second-largest customer by dollar volume despite lower award frequency. GSA Public Buildings Service Region 4 and Region 7 combined fund two awards worth 8.2 million. Duvall Decker operates entirely within specialized facility infrastructure work: architectural and engineering services for design (Type A), detailed design (Type B), and construction delivery (Type C) for military installations, fire stations, warehouses, fitness facilities, renovation projects, HVAC replacements, roof repairs, and facility demolition. Representative work includes a $981.7 thousand Air National Guard renovation of approximately 19,607 square feet of administrative areas with a 6,593 square-foot addition in Jackson, Mississippi (awarded September 2025); a $950 thousand Building 104 renovation project at Jackson Air National Guard (awarded August 2023, extending through March 2026); a $917.8 thousand design and construction engagement for a base supply and warehouse facility at Meridian Air Force Base (awarded August 2023); a $532.7 thousand environmental assessment and architectural-engineering task order for Everglades National Park (awarded July 2024); a $495.7 thousand Small Arms Range design project for the 186th Air Refueling Wing (awarded November 2024); and a $2.4 million General Services Administration definitive contract for design and court security renovation of the William M. Colmer Federal Building and U.S. Courthouse in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, extending through September 2029 under total small business set-aside (awarded April 2024).

The vendor's activity trajectory shows growth from five awards in 2022 through a peak of ten awards in 2023, then declining to eight in 2024 and six in 2025, with only one award recorded in 2026 to date. Five awards (combined potential value $6.3 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and will require recompete. Duvall Decker operates 100 percent as a prime contractor with no sub-award exposure in the source data. However, across SCI-reportable prime service contracts above the $150,000 threshold, subcontractors account for an average of 39 percent of contractor hours, with 29 named subcontractors engaged across the five SCI records captured in FY2022–FY2024. SCI-reported invoicing totaled $5.1 million across that three-year window ($3.4 million in FY2022, $736 thousand in FY2023, $946 thousand in FY2024), with the federal workforce scale ranging from 0.9 FTEs in FY2022 to 2.8 FTEs in FY2024. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-reportable prime contracts span a wide range, from a 10th percentile of $28.49 per hour to a median of $90.18 per hour and a 90th percentile of $816.77 per hour, reflecting variation across design, technical, and project-management labor categories. Duvall Decker maintains a named subsidiary, Duvall Decker-Spacesmith, JV, structured as a small business joint venture. The firm competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-aside designation on its two anchor IDIQs; task orders issued against those vehicles carry no individual set-aside designation, allowing flexibility in full-and-open competition for specific delivery order work.
