Shaw Industries, Inc.

Shaw Industries, Inc., operating as Executive Offices, a division of Shaw Industries Group, Inc., is a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. and the world's largest carpet manufacturer. Shaw serves as a prime contractor delivering carpet tiles, flooring products, and carpet installation and removal services to federal agencies almost exclusively through the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) and related blanket purchase agreements, competing on a full-and-open, non-set-aside basis across 214 distinct customer agencies.

Shaw's federal footprint is dominated by flooring procurement. Across 2,330 awards spanning more than three decades, Shaw has accrued $146.6 million in combined potential value, with $71.6 million obligated to date. The capability portfolio centers on carpet tile supply and installation, vinyl and resilient flooring materials, furniture renovation, and ancillary adhesive and backing materials. Representative prime work includes a $1.9 million blanket purchase agreement with the Department of the Army Installation Management Command Southeast Region for flooring replacement at Fort Lewis, Washington (extending through October 2023 with task orders reaching $277 thousand each); a $315 thousand delivery order for flooring cove base at Fort Lewis issued in August 2023; a $197 thousand Army delivery order for carpet installation in Building 11871 at Fort Lewis; a $155 thousand delivery order from Veterans Integrated Service Network 21 for Shaw carpet tile extension through June 2026; a $114 thousand Navy delivery order for Building 2 furniture renovations at the SECNAV Criminal Investigative Service facility in Quantico; and multiple sub-$50 thousand purchase orders from the Bureau of Overseas Building Operations for carpet tiles and adhesive at diplomatic facilities (embassies and chanceries in London, Liberia, and Atlanta).

Concentration by customer agency is diffuse. The top five customers account for 18% of awards and span the Department of the Air Force (122 awards), the Air Force Air Mobility Command (97 awards), the General Services Administration Public Buildings Service (76 awards), the Department of Agriculture Office of Operations (75 awards), and the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts (61 awards). By combined potential value, however, the Army Installation Management Command Southeast Region leads with $5.5 million across 41 awards, followed by the Air Force Pacific Air Forces ($2.7 million on 27 awards), and the Air Force Air Mobility Command ($2 million on 97 awards). This concentration pattern reflects Shaw's deep engagement with Army facility-maintenance contracts at Fort Lewis alongside routine flooring replenishment across civilian agencies' courts, post offices, and federal buildings.

Shaw's primary contracting vehicle is the Federal Supply Schedule GS27F0034A, which anchors 1,769 task orders worth $29.2 million in combined potential value. The General Services Administration Multiple Award Schedule itself carries 421 task orders valued at $16.9 million. A single-award Army BPA (GS27F0034A-60301) holds 52 task orders with no disclosed ceiling. The vendor's NAICS profile reflects its core identity: 2,249 awards fall under Carpet and Rug Mills (NAICS 314110), with subordinate work in Flooring Contractors (39 awards) and Floor Covering Stores (11 awards). The PSC framing reinforces this: 1,752 awards carry Floor Coverings (PSC), and 194 carry Housekeeping—Carpet Laying/Cleaning (PSC).

Award activity has been volatile in recent years—13 awards in 2022, 26 in 2023, declining to 6 in each of 2024 and 2025, with one award appearing in 2026 (the March 2026 $155 thousand VISN 21 order noted above). This trajectory suggests recompete or consolidation pressure on the Army BPA and MAS task-order pipeline, though no near-term recompete cliff is evident in the source data. Shaw holds no GSA labor categories carrying security clearances; its four active labor categories range from $26.40/hour (Furniture) to $72.50/hour (TREAD1), reflecting light-duty facility-support labor rather than technical or professional services. The vendor operates with minimal subcontract exposure: only two sub-awards appear in the source, both issued by Asrc Federal Facilities Logistics in 2024 and 2025 for custom tile and design services.

Shaw's Dalton, Georgia headquarters serves as the primary place of performance across most orders, though Army work is executed at Fort Lewis, Washington; Navy work at Quantico, Virginia; and Coast Guard work at Boston, Massachusetts. The vendor's competitive posture favors high-volume, low-complexity procurement on established contract vehicles—the MAS structure and Army BPA allow Shaw to capture recurring flooring demand across installations and federal buildings without requiring recompetition on each task order.
