Brighter Days & Nites, Inc.

Brighter Days & Nites, Inc., a Memphis, Tennessee-based minority-owned, woman-owned small business and self-certified small disadvantaged business, supplies electrical, lighting, plumbing, HVAC, and facility maintenance products to federal agencies as a prime contractor exclusively (100% of recent awards). The company operates across 22 distinct federal agencies through small-business set-asides (Total Small Business, Woman-Owned Small Business designations dominate the purchase-order portfolio) and full-and-open competitive procurements, with a footprint spanning the Department of Defense, Department of Energy, Department of the Interior, General Services Administration, and Department of Homeland Security.

Brighter Days & Nites generates revenue through high-volume, low-value purchase orders for specialized equipment and consumables. Representative work includes a $80.3 thousand Woman-Owned Small Business purchase order from the Defense Logistics Agency (January 2026) for 171 shower bath fixtures delivered to DLA Distribution San Joaquin in California; a $66.3 thousand Woman-Owned Small Business purchase order from Air Combat Command (August 2024) for a three-phase pad-mounted transformer; a $29.5 thousand Total Small Business purchase order from Air Combat Command (September 2025) for water line pipes and plumbing components (18 items including 600 units of 8-inch C900 DR18 blue pipes); and a $73.7 thousand Total Small Business purchase order from the Department of Justice Federal Correctional Institution Gilmer (August 2024) for stairwell repair materials including galvanized steel grating and steel treads. The company also holds a $6.5 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with TACOM Life Cycle Management Command for Chemical Agent Resistant Coating (CARC) painting services (through January 2026), a $350 thousand single-award indefinite-delivery contract with Department of Defense Aviation (through January 2031), and a $139.6 thousand single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with Department of Homeland Security Federal Law Enforcement Training Center for paint and painting supplies (through September 2026).

Customer concentration tilts toward Army Materiel Command and power-generation agencies. The top five customer entities account for 86% of combined potential value, led by TACOM Life Cycle Management Command (two awards, $6.5 million combined potential value, anchored by the five-year CARC painting BPA). By award count, concentration is lighter: Coast Guard, Air Combat Command, Bureau of Reclamation, Federal Correctional Institution Gilmer, and GSA Federal Acquisition Service each appear in two or three awards but carry smaller individual values. Product category concentration runs heaviest in paints, coatings, and related products (6 awards, PSC 2310 family); hose, pipe, tube, fittings, and railing (5 awards); and indoor/outdoor electric lighting fixtures (3 awards). NAICS alignment shows paint and coating manufacturing (4 awards), iron and steel pipe and tube manufacturing (4 awards), and other metal valve and pipe fitting manufacturing (3 awards).

Activity has declined year over year — ten awards in 2022 to three in 2026 (through May) — and obligated dollars across the portfolio stand at $1.5 million against $8.8 million in combined potential value (17% obligation rate), reflecting slow task-order pull against larger BPAs and IDVs. Only one award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months (a $9.8 thousand delivery order from Department of Defense Aviation, November 2026). The vendor holds no subcontract positions and does not appear as a sub-award recipient in the source data; all 35 awards are prime awards. The company's position on GSA Federal Supply Schedule GS07F0482U and a standing Emergency Acquisition Basic Ordering Agreement with GSA Federal Acquisition Service (expired March 2024 in the source record) signals eligibility for rapid-order federal supply procurement but minimal recent task-order activity against those vehicles.
