NJ Design & Build is a San Diego–based federal contractor delivering secure, FAR- compliant construction for civilian agencies, DoD installations, and prime contractors across
Southern California. Our team supports cleared-site protocols, agency reporting standards, and rigorous schedule controls from notice-to-proceed through closeout. Backed by licensed, bonded, and insured field crews, we build to perform — and to pass inspection.
Our federal projects construction services support agencies and primes with secure, audit-ready delivery across the San Diego region and the broader California military corridor.
We deliver new-build offices, DoD support
buildings, and public service facilities with attention to anti-terrorism/force protection (ATFP)
standards, UFC criteria, and secure construction protocols.
We construct DOT- and FHWA- funded roadways, bridges, and transit improvements engineered to federal performance
specifications. Our team coordinates traffic control, environmental mitigation, and federal-aid reporting end to end.
We modernize GSA, VA, and military-occupied
facilities with phased renovations that maintain mission continuity. Scopes include MEP upgrades, ADA/ABAAS compliance, life-safety retrofits, and energy efficiency improvements.
Licensed, bonded, and insured general contractor — rated 5.0★ on Google by Southern California clients.
We bring procurement-ready precision, schedule discipline, and verifiable compliance to every contract — supporting contracting officers, COTRs, and prime partners from kickoff to final acceptance.
Our federal compliance construction work is built to serve agency missions for decades — engineered for resilience, security, and sustainability. We partner with government clients and primes to deliver infrastructure the public sector can rely on.
We deliver federally funded public works — roadways, bridges, water systems, and transit improvements — under DOT, FHWA, and EPA program requirements. Our team manages federal-aid documentation, Davis-Bacon wage compliance, and environmental controls so projects move from obligation to ribbon-cutting on schedule and within appropriated budgets.
We construct mission-specific facilities for defense, research,
and public-safety operations, including hardened structures, secure-access buildings, and technical support spaces. Each scope is built to UFC criteria and ATFP standards, with QA/QC documentation and cleared personnel where contract requirements call for
restricted-area access.
We modernize occupied GSA, VA, and DoD
buildings with phased construction that protects continuity of operations. Scopes include
MEP overhauls, seismic retrofits, ADA/ABAAS upgrades, secure-area buildouts, and historic-sensitive interiors — all delivered with minimal mission disruption and full agency reporting throughout execution.
We mobilize quickly for FEMA, USACE, and agency-led recovery contracts, providing rapid stabilization, debris management, and restoration of essential federal facilities. Our crews operate under accelerated procurement timelines while maintaining safety, environmental, and documentation standards required for federal
disaster reimbursement.
We integrate LEED, ENERGY STAR, and Guiding Principles–aligned strategies into federal renovations and new builds. Scopes include solar- ready electrical systems, high-efficiency HVAC, water conservation, and envelope improvements that support agency sustainability targets and federal energy-reduction mandates.
We operate as a SAM.gov-registered contractor with
bonding capacity and processes built around FAR/DFARS, Buy American Act, and Davis-
Bacon obligations. From representations and certifications to closeout submittals, our team
produces the documentation contracting officers expect — accurate, auditable, and on time.
