About Jacob McIlvaine
As a retired naval officer, I\'m learning to pick out my own clothes after 20+ years in uniform.As a professional engineer, I\'m innovating civil and energy infrastructure solutions to improve communities.As a husband and father, I\'m relying on those same communities to help raise my family.Being a Federal Contract Manager at GPD melds all the sides of me together. It enables me to continue serving the nation by connecting the Department of Defense and other federal agencies to talented teams of architects, engineers, and planners ready to provide the full suite of A/E capabilities, as well as project and contract management, to deliver innovative and scalable designs, plans, and studies that enhance our communities.No matter the challenge - energy resiliency, sensitive compartmented information facilities, airfield/port damage repair, master planning, asset management, infrastructure recapitalization strategy, secure telecom expansion.No matter the requirement - early contractor engagement, minimum viable project scopes, alternative construction methods, lean design-build, joint ventures, MATOC/IDIQ, mentor-protégé.The GPD Federal Team is ready serve (but you\'ll still have to pick out your own outfits).
