The de Moya Group

What The de Moya Group does

The de Moya Group is a privately held, family-owned heavy civil construction firm founded in 1986 and headquartered in Miami, Florida, specializing in major highway, bridge, and interchange construction across the state of Florida. The company self-performs its core scope through in-house earthwork, drainage, roadway base, asphalt paving, concrete paving, major and minor bridges, retaining walls, and concrete and steel piling. It operates two internal manufacturing subsidiaries — The Asphalt Group (established 2006), which runs an asphalt plant, and the Prestress-Precast Division (established 2010), which produces concrete piling (18", 24", 30"), 36"-78" Florida I-Beams, MSE wall panels, and Type K temporary barrier walls — and owns more than 400 pieces of equipment.

The firm generates revenue almost exclusively by bidding on and executing public infrastructure projects, primarily for the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and its districts, along with the Florida Turnpike Enterprise and the Miami-Dade Expressway Authority. Its go-to-market centers on competitive bidding for conventional and Design-Build contracts, with virtually all large-ticket work executed as part of joint ventures with firms such as Archer Western, Condotte America, and Community Asphalt Corp. Recent contract activity includes the $803 million I-395 Signature Project, the $599 million Gateway Expressway, the $559 million SR 826/SR 836 Interchange, the $457 million 95 Express Phase 3C, the $143 million HEFT Turnpike Extension, and the $134 million I-4 Widening — every one of which is a Florida-only, public-sector engagement awarded via procurement rather than commercial sale.

The de Moya Group's business model is project-based and milestone-driven, with pricing not publicly disclosed because contracts are awarded via FDOT competitive procurement. Differentiation rests on vertical integration, a track record of finishing ahead of schedule (NW 25th Street Viaduct 126 days early, SR 826/SR 874 167 days early), a Contractor Past Performance Rating of 106, and value-engineering savings of $45-$50 million on individual projects. The company reports it has never laid off an employee for lack of work in more than 25 years of operation, and it currently supports offices in Miami (headquarters), Venice, Naples, and North Fort Myers to cover southwest and central Florida.
