Teaming & Subcontractors

Two ways to work with us

We are a small business prime and construction manager. That means we sit on both sides of the table — teaming with large primes who need genuine small business capability, and building a Southeast trade partner network we can put on federal work with confidence.

For prime contractors

Small business capability that is actually capable

Primes carry subcontracting goals under FAR 52.219-9 and 13 CFR 125.3, and the hard part is finding a small business that can genuinely carry scope rather than pass it through. Our founder has run federal projects from the prime side — NAVFAC country portfolios, USACE renovations, OBO new compound construction — and that is the capability we bring to a teaming agreement.

What we bring to a team

  • Federal project management and construction management delivery, not administrative pass-through
  • Active Top Secret clearance at the founder level
  • FAR/DFARS and UFC fluency, with QC plan governance aligned to NAVFAC and USACE requirements
  • Southeast subcontractor relationships across Alabama, Georgia, Florida, and Mississippi, anchored by a Chairman who is a past President of the Alabama AGC
  • European theater experience if your pursuit crosses USACE Europe or NAVFAC EURAFCENT
For subcontractors

Get on our bid list

We deliver every scope through a curated network of qualified trade partners. We prequalify carefully, we integrate you into the schedule rather than throwing dates over a wall, and we track performance with scorecards so that good work earns repeat invitations.

What we look for

  • Ability to work on a military installation, including base access and background requirements
  • Bondable, insured, and comfortable with federal flow-down provisions
  • Trade capability in MEP, interior finishes, roofing, sitework, or specialty federal scopes
  • A safety record you are willing to put in front of a government QA representative
  • Realistic schedule commitments — we would rather hear “six weeks” than a number you cannot hit
