JLL Valuation & Advisory Services, LLC

JLL Valuation & Advisory Services, LLC, a subsidiary of Jones Lang LaSalle Americas, Inc., operates as a prime contractor providing expert witness services, real estate appraisal, and litigation support to federal civilian agencies in open federal procurement without small business certifications. The firm is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, and competes across NAICS 541511 (Offices of Real Estate Appraisers) and 541110 (All Other Legal Services), with a portfolio dominated by labor-hour and time-and-materials contracts for expert testimony in federal litigation.

The Internal Revenue Service is JLL's dominant customer, accounting for 21 of 34 awards and $6.8 million in combined potential value—approximately 88% of the vendor's active award volume. IRS work centers on expert witness services for litigation support, forensic accounting, tax abatement assistance, and real estate valuation tied to conservation easement disputes and syndicated conservation easement matters, with recent labor-hour contracts including a $1.247 billion definitive award (Aug 2022–Aug 2027) for expert witness and audit defense litigation, an $856 thousand contract (Feb 2025–Feb 2030) for conservation easement valuation, and a $272 thousand purchase order (Feb 2026–Feb 2031) for expert witness testimony and property valuation appraisal. The Department of Justice ranks second but carries substantially larger dollar exposure: the Tax Division holds 2 awards worth $2.1 million combined potential value, including a $1.933 million time-and-materials purchase order (Dec 2021–Dec 2026), while the Environment and Natural Resources Division holds 4 awards worth $1.3 million, including a $1.178 million expert witness contract (Sep 2023–Feb 2029). The stark divergence between the two customer-ranking tables reflects the $50 million blanket purchase agreement JLL holds with the Army Corps of Engineers for real estate appraisal services—a single vehicle that anchors 100% of the vendor's combined potential-value ranking despite representing only 1 award by count.

Activity contracted sharply after 2023: the vendor recorded 8 awards in 2022, 6 in 2023, 1 in 2024, 5 in 2025, and 3 year-to-date in 2026. Fourteen awards carrying $5.5 million in combined potential value face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure across the IRS expert witness portfolio. SCI-reportable invoiced revenue totaled $2.1 million in FY2024 across 1.9 FTEs on a single contract-level record, with no SCI invoicing captured in FY2022 or FY2023; the vendor shows 1.3 FTEs in FY2022 (4 prime / 2 sub SCI records), zero FTEs in FY2023 (7 prime / 0 sub), and 4.3 FTEs in FY2024 (11 prime / 4 sub). On federal services contracts in the SCI dataset, government-paid rates ran from $261/hr (10th percentile) to a median of $299.74/hr, with senior labor—likely expert witnesses and principals—reaching $1,571.89/hr (90th percentile). JLL operates 100% as a prime contractor across its federal footprint with zero sub-award activity; across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed zero percent of total hours, indicating the vendor delivers its own expert and appraisal labor directly. The Coast Guard, VA Technology Acquisition Center, and GSA Public Buildings Service Region 5 each hold minor awards for specific appraisals and consulting engagements, none exceeding $250 thousand.
