D'Vonta Shamar Richard
Founder & Managing Member · Urban Realty Alliance, LLC
D'Vonta Shamar Richard is a United States Navy veteran with a 100% service-disability rating and a documented operational record leading fleet, transportation, and route operations at scale — the operational disciplines that a federal contracting officer expects behind the words "capable" and "ready."
He built the operational spine outside of real estate first: Amazon route and operations leadership, transportation branch management at Garda Cash Logistics, distribution operations for Flowers Foods, McKee Foods, and Target, and service in the United States Navy. He bought his first house on the courthouse steps at a tax auction, rebuilt from a bankruptcy the finance industry never warned him about, and turned every correction into a system he could hand to someone else.
That system became the ValuePoint™ Method — the discipline that governs how Urban Realty Alliance, LLC underwrites acquisitions, structures deals, and reads a market. He helps clients, tenants, and contracting officers navigate uncertainty by finding and organizing overlooked sources of value. The client is the hero. He draws the map.

Fleet Operations on the Record
The record before the certifications
The certifications on the Federal / Capabilities page were earned on top of a documented operational record — not the other way around. That record is what the government verified before it issued a single letter.
United States Navy — Veteran; foundational leadership and standards discipline.
Amazon — Route and operations leadership; last-mile fleet at scale.
Garda Cash Logistics — Transportation branch management; regulated, high-value fleet operations.
Flowers Foods · McKee Foods · Target — Distribution operations across three national logistics networks.
Urban Realty Alliance, LLC · Richards Rideshare and Courier, LLC — Founder and managing member; current fleet and real-estate operations under the APEX Enterprise umbrella.
"Every route I have run — Amazon block to Garda armored car to church-fleet surge concept — taught the same lesson: capacity you can prove is capacity contracting officers can buy."
The APEX Enterprise Family
Where Urban Realty Alliance, LLC Sits
APEX Enterprise is the umbrella governance layer over four operating brands. Each entity is legally separate, financially separate, and independently governed. Nothing is co-mingled.

Operation Stable Ground Foundation, Inc.
Independent 501(c)(3) public charity — separate governance, separate contact, separate books.
Urban Realty Alliance, LLC is a for-profit Missouri LLC. Any reference to Operation Stable Ground Foundation, Inc. on this site is a reference to an independent 501(c)(3) — never a marketing device, never a co-mingled program, and never a shared contact block. See the OSG site for OSG programs.
Kansas City, on the Record
Community Commitments — and Where the Walls Are
URA operates in specific Kansas City neighborhoods with specific commitments. Each commitment is structured with clear boundaries between URA's for-profit real-estate work, the independent OSG public charity, and the local geographies we operate in. We publish the boundaries because contracting officers, tenants, and community partners all deserve to see them.
Operation Stable Ground Foundation, Inc.
URA supports Operation Stable Ground Foundation, Inc. as a community partner — not a client, not a subsidiary, not a shared operation. OSG is an independent 501(c)(3) public charity with its own board, its own contact block, its own bank accounts, and its own governance. URA's support is documented and disclosed to the extent required by IRS and federal-contracting conflict-of-interest standards.
OSG address, phone, and email are on the OSG site — not this one.
Buy-the-Block
Buy-the-Block is URA's for-profit acquisition and portfolio-clustering discipline: concentrating ownership on specific Kansas City blocks so that operational upgrades — repairs, tenant services, safety, common-area investment — compound at block scale instead of dissipating across isolated units. The economics are documented in the ValuePoint™ Method for real estate; the acquisition provenance is public — courthouse steps, tax auctions, structured public channels only.
For-profit real estate under URA. No charitable-donation language.
Montgall
Montgall is one of URA's Kansas City operating geographies — a specific neighborhood corridor where we hold occupied real estate, where our HUBZone-eligible principal office is located, and where the operational commitments in the Buy-the-Block discipline are executed in a documented, block-level portfolio.
Location of record for URA. Not a program name; a neighborhood.
