Direct answers for property managers, building owners, architects, and tenants evaluating a commercial tenant-improvement, SCIF, or tenant-services contractor in Washington, DC, Northern Virginia, or Maryland.
Journey Office Builders LLC (JOB) is a tenant improvement general contractor based at 8455-Y Tyco Road, Vienna, VA 22182. The company has served property managers, building owners, architects, and tenants in Washington, DC, Northern Virginia, and Maryland since 1989.
The work is commercial interior construction: tenant improvements and office fit-outs, white-box and spec suites, building renovations and capital improvements, SCIF construction, demolition, commercial flooring, painting and wall finishes, preconstruction and capital planning, permitting, punch-list and closeout, and ongoing tenant services. Our practice is built for occupied commercial buildings. Our standard is to deliver tenant improvements right the first time.
JOB has been in business for 35-plus years and has completed 500-plus projects. The company was founded in 1989 by Mike Miravi. The legal name is Journey Office Builders LLC, JOB for short. Phone 703-748-4600. Email info@excellentjob.com.
We serve Washington, DC, Northern Virginia, and Maryland from our Vienna, Virginia headquarters. We hold licenses in Virginia, the District of Columbia, and Maryland, and that is the market we bid.
Our projects include Washington, DC; Northern Virginia communities including Vienna, McLean, Arlington, Alexandria, Herndon, Falls Church, Dulles, Sterling, and Woodbridge; and Maryland locations including Chevy Chase, Silver Spring, and Rockville. We work across Class A office, retail, industrial, and secure government facilities in the DMV.
A commercial tenant improvement (TI), also called an office fit-out, is the interior construction that prepares a leased or vacant commercial space for a tenant to occupy and work. At JOB that includes build-outs and renovations of occupied suites and of leasing-ready space, including white-box and spec suite construction.
Scope follows the drawings. It can include partitions, finishes, commercial flooring, paint and wall finishes, selective demolition, and coordination of the trades required to complete the space. Lobbies, corridors, amenity spaces, and other capital improvements are handled as building renovations, separate from the tenant's suite. The client is usually the property manager, owner, architect, or tenant who needs the space delivered inside an operating building.
Yes. Occupied commercial buildings are the center of the practice, not a special case. JOB's work is built around active, tenant-occupied buildings rather than ground-up construction. That takes disciplined scheduling, site control that protects people still working in the building, and direct coordination with building management and tenants.
Selective demolition is planned so occupied areas around the work zone stay protected. Flooring and painting are scheduled to limit disruption to operations. JOB holds preferred and approved vendor status in more than 40 buildings across leading institutional property-management portfolios in the region. That status is how much of the repeat tenant-service work is assigned. For an urgent tenant-service request, call 703-748-4600 and press 1.
Yes. Journey Office Builders builds Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities (SCIFs) in the same Washington, DC, Northern Virginia, and Maryland market as its office and building work, including secure government facilities. SCIF construction is performed to ICD/ICS 705 standards, and the construction team supports the owner's accreditation process from the start of the build.
A SCIF is not a standard office fit-out. ICD 705 sets the physical and technical security requirements the construction has to meet. Accreditation stays the facility owner's process. JOB is SAM registered. Our federal identifiers are UEI KCKWP7QAF157 and CAGE 8V9X6. Classification, accreditation roles, and construction scope are confirmed in the quote for that facility. We do not publish a count of SCIF projects.
Yes. Permitting and approvals are a defined service. JOB manages the permitting process for the owner and works directly with the local jurisdiction so approvals stay tied to the project schedule. We are licensed to contract this work in all three jurisdictions: Virginia Class A #2705020320, Washington, DC #71102579, and Maryland #15356747.
Permit review time is set by the jurisdiction. The District of Columbia, Virginia counties and cities, and Maryland counties do not share one review calendar. JOB does not guarantee a permit issuance date. The quote for a project should name the jurisdiction and the schedule assumption for review.
We do not publish a guaranteed duration for an office tenant improvement. On the quote request form, clients describe the window they need as ASAP, 1-3 months, 3-6 months, or 6+ months. Those are request categories, not a promise that a job will finish inside them.
What moves a project from one window to another:
The duration that matters is the one stated in the quote for that address and scope. We acknowledge a request within the hour and return a quote within 24-48 hours, so the schedule is tied to the actual building.
We acknowledge a request within the hour, quote within 24-48 hours, and issue invoices that match the estimate, with no surprises. We keep project information confidential and respond within one business day.
A useful request includes the building address, whether the space is occupied, the project type, any drawings or a written scope, and the timeline the building needs. Timeline choices on the form are ASAP, 1-3 months, 3-6 months, and 6+ months. Preconstruction and capital planning are available when an owner needs a budget and a scope before a full construction price. Invoices are written to match the estimate.
Journey Office Builders LLC is fully licensed and insured. Our licenses are:
Our federal registration is UEI KCKWP7QAF157 and CAGE code 8V9X6. We are SAM certified. We do not list insurance limits here. Ask for the current certificate of insurance with the bid invitation.
Typical clients are property managers, building owners, architects, and commercial tenants. Some examples include Cushman & Wakefield, CBRE, Cannon Hill Capital Partners, Carr Properties, and Jones Lang LaSalle. JOB also holds preferred and approved vendor status in more than 40 buildings in leading institutional portfolios.
Yes. Beyond a construction project, JOB provides ongoing maintenance and facilities support for occupied buildings so the space stays in condition after move-in. We offer tenant services alongside our construction work, and the quote form includes tenant services as a project type.
Urgent tenant-service requests go to 703-748-4600, press 1. Preferred and approved vendor status in more than 40 buildings is how a large share of that repeat work is routed, including priority for emergency response.
