Framing Contractors

Framing Contractors (NAICS 238130) primarily engage in constructing, installing, and modifying building structural elements such as walls, partitions, frameworks, roofs, floors, and related architectural components. These contractors typically provide labor, materials, equipment, and supervision for construction projects involving wooden and metal framing, drywall installation, structural modifications, and related finishing work. The scope encompasses both new construction and renovation projects across various facility types, including federal buildings, research facilities, military installations, and administrative centers.

Federal Contract Awards in this NAICS category demonstrate consistent activity, with contract values ranging from approximately $5,000 to $300,000 and typical durations of 30-180 days. Frequently awarded entities include small businesses, particularly those certified under 8(a) Business Development Program, woman-owned small businesses, and service-disabled veteran-owned businesses. Common funding agencies include the Department of Agriculture, Department of the Navy, Department of Homeland Security, and General Services Administration. Most awards utilize total small business or 8(a) sole source set-asides, with performance locations spanning multiple states including Massachusetts, California, Georgia, and New Hampshire. Typical project scopes include door replacements, wall construction, foundation repairs, and facility modifications.

Recent Federal Contract Opportunities reflect a continued demand for framing and construction services across federal agencies. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has solicited a lean-to structure addition in New Hampshire, while the Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service seeks design and construction of eight anterooms for a poultry research laboratory in Georgia. The Department of the Navy has issued a Blanket Ordering Agreement for carpentry services, encompassing broader construction activities including framework installation, roofing, flooring, and related trades. These opportunities consistently emphasize small business participation, active System for Award Management (SAM) registration, and firm-fixed price contract mechanisms.
