Federal Government

AE Works brings more than 18 years of federal government project experience for a range of agencies including the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). We bring depth and diversity of projects from VA Medical Centers to infrastructure and office buildings. We're designing the buildings that serve us.

When we started out 18 years ago, our very first project was for a distinguished federal government client, marking the genesis of our government practice.

AE Works takes pride in delivering projects that meet the highest standards of quality, while maintaining vigorous cost control and ensuring full contract compliance. With deep expertise in federal building design standards, our team consistently delivers solutions that align with client goals and regulatory requirements.

With an average construction value of $6M, our work spans very large projects to smaller ongoing IDIQ work.

From infrastructure and assessments to full design services and master plans, we've worked on more than 200 projects for federal agencies.

A team built to deliver on IDIQ and single project contracts.

Providing customized solutions that meet the specific needs and regulatory requirements of federal government projects, ensuring efficiency, compliance, and client satisfaction.
