IVEY, DAVID JAMES

IVEY, DAVID JAMES specializes in delivering faith-based chaplaincy and religious support services to military personnel and their families under Department of Defense contracts. Their core capabilities include organizing and conducting Catholic liturgical services, sacramental ministries, and auxiliary religious programs tailored to the operational needs of garrisoned forces. Technical expertise encompasses pastoral care coordination, religious accommodation planning, and compliance with DoD Instruction 1300.17 on religious freedom and chaplaincy support. Key differentiators include culturally competent spiritual care delivery in high-tempo military environments and deep familiarity with installation-specific religious service frameworks, ensuring continuity of worship and moral support across deployment cycles. The contractor maintains a consistent relationship with the Department of Defense, primarily supporting installations such as Fort Bliss through sustained religious service contracts. Their work involves planning and executing weekday Masses, sacramental preparation, spiritual counseling, and faith-based auxiliary programs that align with military readiness and force resilience objectives. This pattern indicates a trusted, long-term partnership built on reliability, adherence to military protocols, and the ability to scale religious support in response to unit turnover and operational demands. The primary NAICS code 813110—Religious Organizations—reflects a niche market positioning focused on providing institutional religious services under federal contract. In practice, this means operating as a contracted provider of ecclesiastical ministry within military installations, distinct from civilian religious outreach. The contractor’s specialization lies in the intersection of military chaplaincy and denominational service delivery, serving a highly regulated environment requiring doctrinal fidelity, security clearance adherence, and coordination with command structures. As a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business structured as a 2J entity, the contractor leverages veteran insight and government-certified status to enhance credibility in defense contracting. Based in Socorro, Texas, the organization operates with a lean, mission-focused model, strategically positioned to support Southwest U.S. military installations while maintaining compliance with federal small business and veteran-owned contracting frameworks.
