DDG was established in 2002 by Doug Davis, who had retired from the Government after a remarkable career as one the youngest Marine Corps Program Managers on record, as well as the first civilian to achieve that status. From its inception as a post-9/11 vehicle through which we could provide fast, reliable and forward-leaning service that the US Military could count on during times of conflict, DDG has strived to maintain our mission-focused mentality, especially as those missions rapidly evolve. We are currently in our second generation of family ownership and operation, ensuring our priority remains our customers, our employees and our communities.
