LEO A Daly + Nbbj JV

LEO A Daly + Nbbj JV, a joint venture of architectural and engineering firms, delivers architectural design, engineering services, and interior design work to federal agencies as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards) on a full-and-open competitive basis, with no set-aside designations across its federal portfolio.

The joint venture brings combined expertise in facility design, pre-design services, feasibility studies, and facility assessments for federal building projects. Representative recent work includes a $9.2 million delivery order from GSA Public Buildings Service for seismic retrofit architect and engineer services supporting modernization of Tacoma Union Station Federal Courthouse in Tacoma, Washington (awarded September 23, 2025, completion September 30, 2028); a $2.1 million pre-design services order for four Inflation Reduction Act projects at federal buildings in Omaha, Nebraska including the Sioux City Courthouse, Denney Federal Building, Dole Courthouse, and Carlson Federal Building (awarded May 9, 2024, completion May 16, 2026); and a $825 thousand architectural and engineering order for USAID Ronald Reagan Building Phases 9 and 10 in Washington, DC (awarded September 13, 2024, completion August 18, 2027). Work scope spans facility alterations, tenant improvements, decarbonization design, stormwater studies, childcare feasibility analysis, and facade remediation across federal courthouses, administrative buildings, and agency headquarters nationwide.

Customer concentration centers on the General Services Administration Public Buildings Service, which accounts for 77% of award count and 99% of combined potential value. GSA Region 5 anchors the portfolio with the National Architecture, Engineering, and Interiors IDIQ (a $125 million multiple-award contract awarded November 10, 2022, running through November 9, 2027), under which LEO A Daly + Nbbj JV holds a Pool A position and has issued twelve task orders totaling $15.6 million in combined potential value. Secondary customers include the Department of Veterans Affairs Benefits Administration Seattle Regional Benefit Office ($1.5 million), the U.S. Agency for International Development Office of the Chief Financial Officer ($825 thousand), and the Department of the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration ($148 thousand). Place of performance spans federal facilities nationwide, with administrative direction from GSA Region 5 and operational work at CONUS locations including Seattle, Washington; Tacoma, Washington; Omaha, Nebraska; Los Angeles, California; Washington, DC; Baltimore, Maryland; Bremerton, Washington; and Birmingham, Alabama.

Activity accelerated from one award in 2023 to six in 2024 before slowing to five combined in 2025 and 2026. Six awards with ultimate completion dates inside the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $12.3 million) face recompete or contract close-out during that window. SCI-reported invoicing totaled $3.1 million across FY2024–FY2025, spanning 1.6 FTEs in FY2024 and 1.2 FTEs in FY2025; all work was self-performed by the prime with zero subcontractor hours. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI contracts ran flat at $442.63/hr across the 10th percentile, median, and 90th percentile, indicating uniform rate structuring. The joint venture competes entirely through the National Architecture, Engineering, and Interiors IDIQ and holds no position on other GSA GWACs, agency-wide vehicles, or BPAs in the source data.
