Federal contract history
| Fiscal year | Obligated, prime contracts |
|---|---|
| FY2026 (incomplete) | $13,750 |
FY2026 ended September 30, and its year-end contract reports and corrections are still arriving, so it's marked incomplete until about early January 2027.
These are every prime contract USAspending.gov records under UEI RJQ3W2N23MK8, from its award search. For a company that is part of a parent company, USAspending's recipient page can show a different figure for a year, because it counts the company's own record and its parent's record separately.

Subcontract work reported by primes
Prime contractors reported 4 subcontracts to it worth about $7.8 million in the last five years, according to USAspending.gov.

How to check or correct this record
The public file gives neither the date a certification started nor the firm's employee count. Self-reported business types are what the firm says about itself on SAM.gov; they aren't SBA certifications. This page doesn't show SBA's VetCert certification for veteran-owned firms; SBA's search below does.

Open contracts in J 3 Contracting, LLC's NAICS codes
649 open federal opportunities on SAM.gov use one of J 3 Contracting, LLC's NAICS codes and may be open to it: no set-aside, or, in the codes it is registered small under, a small business set-aside or one for an SBA certification SAM.gov's file lists for it (HUBZone), or one for a status it reports about itself on SAM.gov (service-disabled veteran-owned). In its other codes only notices with no set-aside count, since SAM.gov's file doesn't say whether it is small there. Here are a few, those in its primary code first, then those in Illinois, then the soonest due.
Confirm eligibility first. J 3 Contracting, LLC's service-disabled veteran-owned status is self-reported on SAM.gov, and this page can't confirm an SBA certification for it, so set-asides for it may be relevant but may not be open to it: SDVOSB and VOSB set-asides need SBA VetCert certification. SBA's Small Business Search shows a firm's current certifications.
