DW Solutions, LLC

DW Solutions, LLC, an SBA 8(a)-certified minority-owned and Black American-owned small disadvantaged business headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia, operates exclusively as a federal prime contractor delivering commercial building construction, facility renovation, mechanical systems upgrades, and infrastructure support services to civilian agencies in the Washington D.C. metropolitan area under 8(a) sole-source set-asides. The vendor competes solely under 8(a) sole-source authority with rare non-set-aside exceptions; 100% of recent awards are prime contracts, with no subcontractor or grant work in the source portfolio.

DW Solutions' customer base concentrates heavily in the National Capital Region across three anchor agencies: the Department of Justice (Justice Management Division and Bureau of Prisons combined account for 53% of awards, $32.8 million), the General Services Administration Public Buildings Service (13 awards, $16.6 million), and the Department of State Office of Acquisition Management and National Capital Region (2 awards to State, $6.3 million). The vendor also maintains active relationships with the Food and Drug Administration (5 awards, $5.6 million at the FDA White Oak Campus in Silver Spring, Maryland) and smaller engagement with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Secret Service, and Defense Information Systems Agency. Across 88% of awards, these five customer tiers define the bulk of the vendor's footprint.

The vendor's concrete capability portfolio centers on commercial building renovation, HVAC system design and installation, electrical and data infrastructure upgrades, facility maintenance contracts, and specialized mechanical work. Recent representative prime awards include a $5.38 million 8(a) sole-source definitive contract with the Justice Management Division for ballistic window systems procurement and installation at the RFK Building (ultimate completion September 22, 2027); a $4.49 million design-build contract with the Department of State for comprehensive survey, assessment, design solutions, and garage leak remediation plus asbestos abatement at the Harry S. Truman Building (August 4, 2026); a $4.27 million Department of State contract for exhibit hall renovation at the National Museum of American Diplomacy (September 30, 2026); a $2.33 million Food and Drug Administration contract for modification of outside-air air handling units at the FDA White Oak Campus (December 31, 2026); and a $1.58 million single-award indefinite-delivery contract with the Central Office for generator, air conditioning, chiller, and building automation system maintenance across federal facilities through September 30, 2029 (awarded October 1, 2024). The vendor executes work primarily in-house on renovation and new construction scopes, engaging subcontractors for specialized design, fabrication, material supply, and technical trades rather than labor augmentation.

Activity has grown substantially year over year—from two awards in 2022 to twenty-three in 2024—before moderating to seventeen awards in 2025 and seven year-to-date in 2026. Within the next twenty-four months, sixteen awards with combined potential value of $35.8 million reach ultimate completion and enter recompete window, representing moderate exposure. Service Contract Inventory data covering reportable federal services contracts above the $150,000 threshold shows $9.7 million in SCI-invoiced labor in FY2025 across 5.0 FTEs, up from $2.8 million in FY2024 across 0.4 FTEs, with an estimated 31% average subcontractor-hours share across prime contracts. Government-paid rates on SCI-reportable work run a wide spectrum—from $0.00/hr at the low end (likely administrative overhead or billing anomalies), median of $637.03/hr, to $3,615.80/hr at the 90th percentile—reflecting a mix of direct-labor and specialized design-consultant scopes. The vendor reports thirty-four named subcontractors across SCI-reportable prime contracts, including repeat partners such as Romana Prosperity Construction Corporation (8(a)-certified, minority-owned, Hispanic American-owned), Ashe Consultants PLLC (women-owned small business), Siemens Industry Inc., and Summer Consultants Inc. for design and controls engineering.

DW Solutions holds no position on government-wide contract vehicles, GWACs, or agency-wide IDIQs; all work derives from direct-award 8(a) sole-source definitive contracts and task orders issued against the single-award Central Office IDV (base year plus four option years through September 2029). The vendor's concentration in 8(a) sole-source procurement, narrow geographic scope (National Capital Region), and dependence on three anchor customer agencies (Justice and GSA representing 66% of dollars) create both structural stability within that niche and recompete vulnerability if agency consolidation, budget shifts, or contracting-authority changes reduce sole-source pathway availability.
