About the company

LJA Engineering Inc., a for-profit parent corporation based in Houston, Texas, operates as a subcontractor (86% of recent awards) delivering civil and structural engineering, surveying, and stormwater infrastructure services to federal agencies and their prime contractors. The vendor holds minimal SBA designations and competes in full-and-open procurement channels; recent work includes subcontract delivery of civil and structural engineering for the Houston Ship Channel Improvement Project Segment 3 under prime McCarthy Building Companies, Inc., and multiple sub-grant awards for stormwater drainage improvement and culvert repair across Harris County, Texas.

The corporate structure comprises four subsidiaries — LJA Infrastructure Inc., LJA Surveying Inc., The WLB Group Inc., and LJA Environmental Services LLC — each carrying capability framing aligned to the parent's service portfolio. Infrastructure, Surveying, and Environmental Services subsidiaries position the vendor across civil engineering, surveying, and environmental compliance work, though recent awards in the source do not isolate subsidiary-level attribution.

Activity in the source data shows sparse federal engagement. The vendor reports seven total awards across prime and sub work, with one prime award and six sub awards, spanning 2018 to 2024. The most recent awards cluster in late 2024 — a subcontract for the Houston Ship Channel project in October 2024 and five grant sub-awards in November and December 2024 for stormwater and culvert work. Combined potential value across all awards sits at $73 thousand, but combined dollars obligated reach $676 thousand, indicating that actual invoicing on smaller sub-awards has exceeded the potential-value baseline by a material margin. Customer concentration is thin; the source names the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers and its Engineering District Chicago entity, accounting for the full recorded potential value of $73 thousand. The two customer agencies noted account for 29% of the award count in the source coverage window, and the Engineering District Chicago entity anchors 100% of the combined potential value shown. No parent contract vehicles, GWACs, BPAs, or IDIQs are named in the source, indicating the vendor does not hold seats on government-wide vehicles and pursues work through direct agency procurement or principal-contractor teaming arrangements.
