Property Condition Assessments: The Name That Has Set The Standard For over 27 Years.
PCA’s government and institutional real estate practice serves two distinct markets through different channels. State, city, county, and municipal real estate engagements — including state agency facility assessments, county capital reserve studies, school district condition reports, public university campus evaluations, transit authority due diligence, and similar work — are performed by PCA directly using the firm’s standard ASTM-based service scopes. Federal-sector commercial real estate work is concentrated within our wholly-owned subsidiary Binary Group, Inc., a woman-owned small business serving the Department of Defense, civilian agencies, and the Intelligence Community.

Government real estate at the state and local level often looks similar to commercial real estate work — the building systems, the assessment standards, the lender or owner concerns, and the underlying engineering analyses are largely the same. PCA performs the same scopes for state and local government clients that the firm performs for commercial clients, with engagement structures adapted to government procurement requirements.
Common state and local government client types served by PCA include:
State and local government engagements draw on PCA’s full service catalog. Agencies evaluating PCA for a government engagement should review the specific service page for the scope being considered:
State and local government engagements often run through formal procurement processes — RFPs, RFQs, cooperative contracts, or pre-qualified vendor lists. PCA participates in state and local procurement processes routinely and supports agency procurement staff with the standard documentation requested: capability statements, references, insurance certificates, professional license documentation, and supplier diversity certifications. For agencies with cooperative contract authority, PCA can typically engage through a state or county on-call agreement or cooperative purchasing vehicle.
PCA’s small-business and supplier diversity status (documented in the credential badges below) supports state and local set-aside and preference programs in jurisdictions that apply them.
Federal-sector commercial real estate consulting — programmatic facility assessments, multi-installation capital planning, GSA leased-space evaluations, and agency-specific reporting frameworks — is handled through Binary Group. Binary Group’s woman-owned business status, set-aside eligibilities, and federal procurement experience position it appropriately for agency-level work. Visitors looking for federal-sector engagements should begin at Binary Group’s website.
Where a federal engagement draws on PCA’s commercial-side engineering and architectural expertise, the Binary Group team coordinates with PCA’s staff under Binary Group’s federal contract vehicle. Binary Group operates as a wholly-owned division of PCA, with the federal and commercial practices serving distinct client bases.
Binary Group, Inc. has served federal customers since 1996 and became a wholly-owned division of PCA in August 2024. The company retains its status as a woman-owned small business and continues to operate under its own name, leadership, and contract vehicles.
Binary Group’s practice is built on federal infrastructure data — collecting it, validating it, and integrating it into the financial and property management systems agencies actually run on. The firm describes its work as delivering actionable intelligence that enables leaders to optimize critical infrastructure assets.
Capabilities span three areas:
Binary Group’s federal customers include Army installations and commands — among them Letterkenny Arsenal, Fort Leavenworth, Fort Knox, Fort Belvoir, Carlisle Barracks, Dugway Proving Ground, White Sands, US Army Europe, and Army CIO G6 — along with the Navy’s ICAP program, the Environmental Protection Agency, NASA Headquarters, the Veterans Administration, the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority, and the Defense Intelligence Agency.
Binary Group’s work is exclusively federal. Commercial engagements are handled by PCA directly.
