What Reyes Construction does

Reyes Construction, Inc. is a privately held heavy civil general contractor founded in 1987 and headquartered in Pomona, California, with a second office in San Diego. The company delivers fixed-price construction contracts for federal agencies — including NAVFAC, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the U.S. Coast Guard, and the Department of Homeland Security — as well as for port authorities (Port of Los Angeles, Port of Long Beach), state and regional transportation agencies (Caltrans, SANDAG, OCTA), and municipal public works departments throughout California, Arizona, Washington, and Nevada. Its work is organized around four service categories: waterfront infrastructure (piers, wharves, seawalls, bulkheads), transportation (bridges, rail), water and wastewater systems (treatment plants, stormwater capture), and other heavy civil (missile magazines, sheet pile walls, large earthwork, utilities), with project sizes ranging from under $5 million to over $10 million.

The company operates as a design-bid-build and design-build contractor, securing work through formal competitive bidding and prequalification processes. Its underlying capability set rests on a specialized labor pool with civil engineering credentials, registered engineers experienced with DoD construction standards, and project staff drawn from peers such as Kiewit, Spiniello, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Subcontractor relations are managed through a formal prequalification portal and a small business self-certification program aligned to federal requirements.

Reyes Construction generates revenue through one-time fixed-price project contracts awarded via competitive government procurement, with no recurring or subscription revenue. The company is founder-led (Joe Reyes Sr.) and supported by a President (Ricardo Jimenez), CFO (Eddie Gallardo), VP of Estimating (Reyn Shimokawa), VP of Operations (Steven Leathers), and two Project Directors. It has accumulated multiple AGC Excellence in Project Management awards (2008, 2009, 2010, 2014, 2016) and regional recognitions from ENR, ACEC, and APWA, positioning it among the established regional heavy civil GCs in Southern California. No external ownership, M&A, or capital-raising events are disclosed.
