About the company

US Cost Inc. DC Office Division, a foreign-owned, for-profit subsidiary based in Lanham, Maryland, delivers construction cost estimating and value engineering services to federal agencies primarily as a subcontractor (77% of recent awards are primes; 23% are subs). The parent company, US Cost Inc., headquartered in Alpharetta, Georgia, holds the prime contracts; the DC Office Division executes delivery through subcontract engagements with architectural and engineering primes.

The vendor's customer concentration is highly skewed toward a single agency. The Department of State Bureau of Overseas Building Operations accounts for eleven awards worth $9.2 million combined potential value, representing 74% of the awards by count and 97% of the vendor's combined potential value across all customers. The Department of the Navy places ten awards (exact dollar value not disclosed in the ranking), with the General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 3 (four awards) and the Defense Intelligence Agency (one $70 thousand award) rounding out the active customer set. This concentration reflects US Cost's positioning as a specialized cost-estimating vendor in federal capital-projects delivery, particularly for State Department overseas building operations and Navy facility modernization.

The vendor holds seats on five named IDCs. The largest by task-order count is Indefinite Delivery Contract N6247092D7508 (eight task orders), followed by SALMEC06D0008 (seven task orders, $3 million combined potential value), 47PD0123D0001 (four task orders), N4008020D0017 (three task orders), and Blanket Purchase Agreement SAQMMA10A0240 (three task orders, $311 thousand combined potential value). Recent representative work includes construction cost estimating for an IRS Martinsburg Roof Replacement project in Kearneysville, West Virginia, under WDP & Associates Consulting Engineers as prime contractor; window-replacement cost estimating for the Garmatz Federal Courthouse in Baltimore, Maryland under the same prime; and multiple cost-estimating submissions for naval air handling unit replacement studies under Summer Consultants, Inc. as prime. The vendor also performed cost estimating for historic-townhouses envelope repairs at the Cosmos Club under Architrave P.C.

Activity volume is sparse in the recent period—one to three awards per year across 2021–2026, with nine subcontract awards documented across the available record. The Service Contract Inventory captures only one SCI record for FY2024, reflecting the vendor's minimal scale in SCI-reportable federal service contracting above the $150,000 threshold. The combined potential value across all thirty-nine awards in the portfolio is $9.5 million, with $4.5 million obligated (47% execution rate). Award activity centers on NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services) and PSC codes for Architect and Engineering—General classifications, with twelve awards under the landscaping and interior layout PSC and eleven under general architectural and engineering services.
