KJ Johnston LTD.

KJ Johnston LTD., a for-profit Subchapter S corporation based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, is a prime contractor delivering construction, renovation, and facility improvement services to federal agencies across eastern and western Pennsylvania as a small business, competing predominantly under full-and-open and total small business set-aside task orders.

The vendor has maintained active federal contracting since 2001, with a concrete capability portfolio centered on interior renovations, painting, carpet replacement, electrical and telecommunications infrastructure upgrades, HVAC alterations, security enhancements, and general facility maintenance at federal buildings and courthouses. Representative work includes a $292,049.58 delivery order from the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts for IT air conditioning replacement at the Joseph F. Weis Jr. U.S. Courthouse in Pittsburgh (awarded September 2023, extended through March 2025); a $249,757.33 firm fixed-price delivery order from the Federal Aviation Administration for space alterations at the Albert M. Covelli Trust Building in Coraopolis, Pennsylvania (awarded June 2025, extended through February 2026); and a $169,681.46 total small business delivery order for first-floor security man-trap installation at the Weis Courthouse (awarded May 2023, extended through November 2025). More recent activity includes a $49,021.82 delivery order from the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts for carpet replacement in Chambers 6C at the Weis Courthouse (awarded February 2026, completion August 2026) and a $122,235.85 open-competition order from the U.S. Marshals Service for HVAC alterations at the same courthouse (awarded June 2025, completion July 2026).

Customer concentration is dominated by GSA's Public Buildings Service Region 3, which accounts for 44 awards and $15.9 million of the vendor's $22.5 million combined potential value—71% of total portfolio by dollars. The Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Investigation's Kailua Kona Field Office, the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts, and the Social Security Administration round out the top four, collectively representing 68% of awards by count. This concentration reflects KJ Johnston's regional focus on federal facility maintenance in Pennsylvania; the vendor operates across 38 distinct customer agencies but derives revenue primarily from a handful of buildings—the Joseph F. Weis Jr. Courthouse, Erie Federal Building and Courthouse, and William S. Moorhead Federal Building dominate the award listing.

The vendor holds a seat on the $8 million GSA Public Buildings Service Region 3 indefinite delivery contract (vehicle 47PD0322D0018, awarded April 1, 2022, with completion March 31, 2027) as a total small business set-aside. This vehicle is the primary parent contract for 30 task orders worth $2.3 million in combined potential value. KJ Johnston also places work under an older GSA vehicle (GS03P12AZD1004) accounting for 71 task orders and $2.5 million, and under the Western PA General Construction Services 2016-2021 vehicle (70 task orders, $3.6 million combined potential value). Delivery orders across all vehicles are priced firm fixed-price and typically range from approximately $10,000 to $300,000.

Activity has remained relatively flat year over year—2022 through 2025 awards ranged from 6 to 11 per year—with 194 total prime awards recorded in the source data. Only one award faces ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months ($49 thousand potential value), indicating minimal near-term recompete pressure. The vendor operates as a 100% prime contractor with no subcontract footprint in the source data. Work is performed at federal facilities across central and western Pennsylvania, with administrative oversight rooted in the Pittsburgh headquarters. NAICS classification is dominated by 541330 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) at 178 awards, with PSC 541330 (Repair Or Alteration Of Office Buildings) covering 170 awards—a portfolio heavily weighted toward courthouse and federal office building renovation and maintenance.
