Twenty-five years building what communities need next.

Usource adopts a holistic approach to the construction process, helping clients maximize project impact while prioritizing client satisfaction and trust. We have partnered with organizations and municipalities across the region to deliver high-quality projects on time and within budget.

People are the core

Construction is our discipline. People are the reason for it. Every project we take on is measured by who ends up using the building: a congregation that can finally get a wheelchair to the sanctuary, a class of four-year-olds in a modernized room, a family moving back into a renovated unit they can still afford, a block that no longer floods.

That orientation changes how we work. It is why we test a budget against real budget constraints before anyone commits, why we clear approvals before the schedule depends on them, and why we push sustainable design and high-efficiency operating systems installation while those decisions still cost nothing to make. The result is functional living and working spaces designed for the future, with reduced operating costs for the owners who have to keep them running.

What we specialize in

• Major capital improvement and new construction projects throughout the DC, Maryland and Virginia area
• High-quality construction workmanship and management, with critical trades self-performed by our own crews and the balance delivered by certified local subcontractors
• Full understanding of municipal and institutional construction, including budgeting, regulatory requirements, funding constraints and timelines
• Deep commitment to economic inclusion, fulfilling 100 percent of Minority, Women-Owned, Small and Disadvantaged Business participation goals

A strategic framework, not just a bid

Most contractors meet a project when the drawings are finished. Usource is led by a former District of Columbia housing and economic development executive, which means we can meet a project much earlier, while it is still a funding gap and an approval nobody has secured yet. Navigating that complex process is a service in its own right, and it is the reason our advisory practice exists alongside the construction business.

Workforce development

Our commitment to diversity and inclusion extends to active workforce development: job creation for underserved communities, hiring and training local workers on our projects, support for local workforce development, community engagement and partnerships, additional opportunities for minority subcontractors, and support for women's advancement in the industry.
