What SRL Enterprises does

SRL Enterprises is a U.S. private professional services firm founded in 2020 and headquartered in Jersey City, New Jersey, with regional offices in Atlanta and Los Angeles. The firm provides contract compliance, workforce compliance, and workforce development services to public agencies, prime contractors, and subcontractors operating on public construction and infrastructure projects. Service lines include Contract Compliance (subcontractor participation tracking, payment verification, CUF reviews, and compliance reporting), Workforce Compliance Services (certified payroll review, labor interviews, field inspections, OJT program administration), Public Relations (community liaison, stakeholder outreach, bilingual communications), and the SRL Internship Program (a fully managed workforce development solution placing college students with local businesses).

The company does not develop or sell technology products; its value is delivered by an in-house team of compliance professionals with deep regulatory expertise in 49 CFR Part 26, Davis-Bacon and Related Acts, and FHWA/FTA reporting requirements. Leadership is anchored by Romaine Lewis (President), a 25-year veteran of NJ Transit, MTA of New York, and Port Authority of NY/NJ, and Carlos López (Head of Investigations and Sr. Compliance Manager), a former DOJ Fraud Section prosecutor and FINRA regulator. SRL's business model is services-led, with engagements structured as lump sum, hourly, monthly, or not-to-exceed agreements on multi-year public-sector contracts. Customer concentration is anchored on public infrastructure owners and contractors across 17-18 states, with the Hudson County Improvement Authority (Guarini Justice Complex) and the Hudson County Internship Program as flagship engagements.

Broad incumbents

• WSP USA: Global engineering professional services firm with a U.S. public infrastructure practice offering program management, compliance oversight, and DBE/MBE support on transportation and building projects. Comparable to SRL in serving public-sector infrastructure clients on federal compliance mandates, though much larger in scale and scope.
• AECOM: Global infrastructure consulting firm with a U.S. public-sector practice delivering program/construction management and DBE compliance oversight on transportation and federal projects. Comparable end-market (public agencies, transportation infrastructure) and capability overlap with SRL, though AECOM is far larger and more diversified.
• Booz Allen Hamilton: Major government services consulting firm with federal infrastructure and civil agencies practices, including compliance, investigations, and workforce programs. Overlaps with SRL on regulatory compliance, certified payroll/Davis-Bacon support, and investigations work (paralleling Carlos López's DOJ background).
• CohnReznick: Top-30 accounting and advisory firm with a public-sector practice advising agencies and contractors on DBE/small business participation, prevailing wage, and labor compliance. Comparable end clients and overlapping compliance offerings, though much larger and broader in scope.
• Colliers Project Leaders: North American project management and advisory firm focused on public-sector buildings, transportation, and infrastructure programs. Overlaps with SRL on contract compliance, program oversight, and government client base, though typically more generalist in PM and not specialized in DBE/workforce compliance.
• KPMG Infrastructure Advisory: Big Four advisory practice with U.S. public-sector and infrastructure groups providing program oversight, governance, and compliance consulting on federally funded projects. Comparable federal-compliance subject-matter expertise to SRL, though typically engaged at much larger scale.

Direct peers

• McKissack & McKissack: Minority-owned program and construction management firm specializing in public-sector infrastructure and compliance oversight, including DBE/MBE participation tracking on large government projects. Closest comparable in size, mission, and minority-business-certification-driven positioning to SRL's HCIA work.

Regional players

• T&M Associates: Mid-Atlantic engineering and consulting firm with strong New Jersey public-sector relationships providing construction management, inspection, and compliance services on transportation and infrastructure projects. Geographic and end-market overlap with SRL's Hudson County / NJ Transit heritage.

Emerging players

• The Winters Group: Mid-sized DBE/small business compliance and program management firm focused on public-sector transportation and infrastructure clients. Comparable niche positioning and service offerings to SRL's contract compliance line, particularly around DBE participation and labor compliance.
• Atlas Crossing: Emerging compliance and DBE advisory firm focused on transportation and infrastructure projects, supporting both agencies and contractors on participation program administration. Comparable in size, niche specialization, and public-sector client base to SRL Enterprises.
