What Alliance Consulting Group does

Alliance Consulting Group, Inc. is a private federal-sector engineering consulting firm founded in 2011 and headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia, with additional offices in Beaverton, Oregon and Poway, California. The firm provides three integrated service lines to U.S. government clients: Master Planning & Programming (including DD Form 1391 development, GIS-based planning charrettes, and Installation Development Plans); Cost Engineering & Risk Management (parametric and detailed cost estimates, Cost & Schedule Risk Analysis using Monte Carlo simulation, value engineering, and project controls); and Design Services (civil, structural, fire protection, and low-voltage design for federal facilities). Its client base is concentrated entirely within the U.S. federal government, including the Department of Defense (Army, Navy, Air Force, USACE, NAVFAC, DHA), the Department of Veterans Affairs, and select civilian agencies such as NOAA and the Bureau of Engraving and Printing.

The firm executes work through federal procurement mechanisms, most notably Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts and joint ventures. Its technical operations rely on industry-standard tools rather than proprietary platforms: BUILDER Engineered Management System for facility condition assessments, MCACES MII, RSMeans, SAGE, SUCCESS, PACES, and Compass International for parametric cost estimating, and Oracle Crystal Ball for risk modeling. Demonstrated scale includes condition assessments across 18.2 million square feet at 614 medical facilities and a position on a 10-year, $5 billion Veterans Health Administration architect-engineer contract secured in October 2025 through the Alliance Steelhead JV with Bodwé Company Steelhead Engineering. Alliance also operates the Alliance|7GAE JV for VA Medical Center work and maintains subcontractor and partner relationships with Jacobs Engineering, Wiley|Wilson, and CALIBRE Systems.

Revenue is generated entirely through negotiated, project-based federal contracts; no public pricing or revenue figures are disclosed. The firm holds SDVOSB and S.W.A.M. small business certifications and is Great Place to Work certified. Competitive positioning rests on credentialed staff with military backgrounds, validated past performance with federal contracting authorities (USACE, NAVFAC, VA), technical fluency in DoD-specific planning criteria (UFC standards, AT/FP requirements), and an SDVOSB status that grants access to set-aside procurement vehicles.

Broad incumbents

• Jacobs Solutions: Global engineering and professional services firm with a major federal A-E practice serving DoD, VA, NASA, and civilian agencies.

• AECOM: Large-scale global infrastructure consulting firm with a substantial federal services segment spanning DoD installations, VA, and civilian agencies. Comparable to Alliance on master planning, cost engineering, and design services for federal facility portfolios, but operates at vastly greater scale.
• Tetra Tech: Engineering and consulting firm with deep federal and DoD installation planning, environmental, and infrastructure work. Comparable to Alliance in federal master planning and engineering design, with overlapping customer base (USACE, NAVFAC, Air Force) but broader scope.
• WSP: Global professional services firm with a federal practice in buildings, transportation, and installation planning. Overlaps with Alliance on master planning, civil/structural design, and federal A-E task orders, though much larger and more diversified across geographies.
• HDR Inc. Employee-owned engineering firm with strong federal healthcare, defense, and civilian agency portfolios. Comparable to Alliance on VA/DHA facility planning and design, with deeper architecture-engineering resources and a longer federal track record.
• Stantec: Sustainable design and engineering firm with federal buildings and infrastructure practices serving DoD and civilian clients. Comparable to Alliance on federal facility planning, design, and cost management, with broader environmental and water capabilities.
• Burns & McDonnell: 100% employee-owned engineering firm with significant federal and military design-build practice. Comparable to Alliance on DoD/VA facility planning, civil/structural design, and cost engineering for federal installations.
• Parsons Corporation: Federal engineering and defense services firm with infrastructure planning, facility design, and cost engineering for DoD, VA, and civilian agencies. Directly comparable to Alliance on federal A-E and installation planning, though at much larger scale and with deeper defense mission integration.
• KBR (Government Solutions): Federal services contractor with engineering, logistics, and installation support for DoD and allied governments. Comparable to Alliance on CONUS/OCONUS federal infrastructure work, but with much broader mission support capabilities.
