What Davenergy Solutions does

Davenergy Solutions, Inc. is a privately held, SBA-verified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) founded in 2009 and headquartered in San Diego, California, with seven additional US offices in Raleigh, Boston, Atlanta, Kalamazoo, Dallas, Renton, and Rockville. The firm provides professional mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) engineering services for federal, healthcare, higher-education, K-12, state and local government, and laboratory clients. Its core service modules are design and engineering, building commissioning, retro-commissioning, energy consulting (ASHRAE Levels 1–3), construction management, and facility support (including arc flash studies, resiliency engineering, infrastructure protection assessments, and EHRM engineering). The firm is ACG-certified in building commissioning and aggregates licensed professional engineers and credentialed commissioning authorities (CEM, CxA, CxPP, LEED AP BD+C) across its ~65-person team. Operationally, Davenergy has retro-commissioned over 100 million square feet of building space, worked at 145+ VA medical centers, and delivered audits across 60+ Army installations, 50+ Navy medical facilities, and 40+ VA campuses.

The business is centered on federal procurement. Davenergy holds the GSA Schedule GS-00F-314GA (contractor listing GS-21F-126AA) and operates as a prime or team member on IDIQ and BPA vehicles with the VA (VISN 5/18/19/20/21/22), NAVFAC, USACE Honolulu and Little Rock Districts, USDA Pacific, PACAF, and BIA. Revenue flows through fixed-price and T&M professional services contracts for design engineering, commissioning, construction management, and energy consulting delivered under federal contracting rules; the firm does not sell to commercial consumers and discloses no public pricing. The customer base is concentrated in the Department of Veterans Affairs (medical centers) and Department of Defense (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps via NAVFAC), with secondary growth into higher education and state and local markets. Leadership is co-led by James Sinclair (CEO, retired Navy Civil Engineer Corps Officer) and Jason Happe (President, decorated Army combat veteran), with Alexander P. Boucher serving as VP of Operations.
