About JPLC

An 8(a), service-disabled veteran-owned small business built on a hands-on approach and experience, and run like the mission depends on it, because it does. Freedom is not free.

OUR STORY

Founded on ethics, integrity, transparency, and mission focus.

JP Logistics & Consulting, LLC was founded by James C. Priest, a retired U.S. Army Senior Non-Commissioned Officer who served at various locations CONUS and OCONUS. After retiring, he entered the government contracting arena in 2002, where he continues to provide world-class support to the warfighters and has spent more than two decades in the DoD community since.

That background shapes how JPLC operates: leadership that has done the work in uniform, teams that show up trained and cleared, and an accounting system that has passed DCAA review. Customers never wonder what’s behind the doors.

From armored vehicle maintenance at strategic weapons facilities to clinical staffing for the Defense Health Agency, JPLC delivers agile, exceptional support across supply chain, transportation, facilities, healthcare, IT, and administrative operations.
