Marrero, Couvillon & Associates, L.L.C.

Marrero, Couvillon & Associates LLC, a Hispanic American-owned SBA 8(a)-certified small disadvantaged business headquartered in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, operates as a prime contractor across federal infrastructure, construction, and engineering services with zero sub-award activity. The firm competes predominantly under set-aside vehicles—8(a) Sole Source and Total Small Business designations characterize most of its prime footprint—and holds a portfolio of $582.5 million in combined potential value across 142 recent federal awards spanning 35 customer agencies.

Marrero Couvillon delivers architectural, engineering, and construction services across three primary NAICS categories: Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (53 awards), Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors (15 awards), and Architectural Services (14 awards). Representative prime work includes a $4.18 million firm fixed-price contract with the Federal Bureau of Prisons (awarded March 2026) for the complete replacement of three water-cooled centrifugal chillers and ancillary HVAC components at the Federal Detention Center Miami; a $3.188 million delivery order under the Great American Outdoors Act MATOC (September 2025) for hurricane bunkhouse replacement at Bell City, Louisiana with the Fish and Wildlife Service; a $1.63 million delivery order (September 2025) with Air Force Special Operations Command for removal and replacement of approach lighting at Clovis Air Force Base; and a $1.34 million visitor center rehabilitation delivery order (April 2024) with the Fish and Wildlife Service Region 1 under the same MATOC. The vendor also executes specialized facility work: a $2.343 million 8(a) Sole Source contract (July 2022) with USDA for repair and replacement of a pellet feed mill section at Mississippi State University's Poultry Research Unit, and a $3.372 million 8(a) Sole Source contract (April 2022) with the Naval Facilities Engineering Command for Hurricane Ida repair group work in New Orleans.

Customer concentration sits with civilian agencies managing infrastructure and research facilities. The top five funding agencies by combined potential value account for 78% of awards, anchored by the Department of Interior Fish and Wildlife Service Headquarters (Region 9) with two awards valued at $300 million combined potential value—primarily the $250 million Great American Outdoors Act MATOC and a $50 million DOI Architecture and Engineering Services MATOC—followed by the Department of Army Installation Management Command Northeast Region ($84.7 million across four awards) and the Department of Agriculture Plains Area ($45.3 million across three awards). By award count, the Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service Field Research Implementation and Information Delivery leads at 42 awards, though the dollar concentration skews toward the large IDV vehicles rather than individual task orders, which typically fall in the range of $28,000 to $633,000.

Marrero Couvillon holds five parent indefinite delivery vehicles anchoring its federal strategy: the Great American Outdoors Act MATOC ($250 million ceiling, 15 task orders totaling $16.5 million in combined potential value) with the Fish and Wildlife Service for alteration and repair construction across national parks, wildlife refuges, and Forest Service properties nationwide; a $95 million Air Education and Training Command (AETC) Altus Air Force Base Multiple Award Construction Contract (2025–2030, Competitive 8(a) set-aside, awarded August 2025); the Department of Army Northeast Region Total Small Business set-aside contract ($84 million ceiling, awarded April 2024) for construction services at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri; the Department of Interior Architecture and Engineering Services MATOC 2022–2027 ($50 million ceiling, awarded September 2022) for architectural and engineering services; and the Department of Agriculture Plains Area indefinite quantity contract for architect and engineering services ($45 million ceiling, awarded September 2021). Task order activity under the GAOA MATOC and Army Northeast Region vehicles represents the vendor's most active work streams, though the breadth of awards across small dollars reflects a strategy of distributed presence across agency facilities rather than large-dollar program concentrations.

Award activity has grown incrementally over five years—14 awards in 2022 to 20 in 2025—with seven awards (combined potential value $15.9 million) reaching completion inside the next twenty-four months and facing recompete exposure. SCI-reported federal service-contract invoicing totaled $12 million across FY2022–FY2024 (FY2022: $2 million, FY2023: $4.8 million, FY2024: $5.1 million), with an average federal workforce scale of 3.3 to 5.6 FTEs per fiscal year across prime contracts above the $150,000 threshold. On federal services contracts captured in SCI, median government-paid rates ran around $308/hr, with senior labor pricing reaching the 90th percentile at $1,187.50/hr, and the vendor subcontracting an average 8% of hours across its prime SCI-reportable contracts to five named subcontractors. The relatively small SCI footprint reflects the vendor's emphasis on construction and engineering delivery orders (which report under goods/services rather than pure service contracts) rather than recurring staff-augmentation or management-support relationships.

The vendor operates through a parent-plus-subsidiary structure: parent entity Marrero, Couvillon & Associates LLC anchors the 8(a) and small disadvantaged business certifications, while three named subsidiaries—Dbc-Mca JV LLC (veteran-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned business joint venture), Arc Mechanical Contractors Inc. (Subchapter S corporation), and Mca-Dot JV LLC (Hispanic American-owned, DOT Certified DBE joint venture)—enable participation in set-aside categories and specialized facility work. The subsidiary structure allows teaming on larger Federal construction efforts while maintaining the parent firm's 8(a) profile for sole-source and competitive small-business procurement vehicles.
