Sheela, Inc.

Sheela, Inc., a Subcontinent Asian American–owned, minority-owned small disadvantaged business headquartered in Wrightstown, New Jersey, operates as a prime contractor in federal construction, renovation, and facilities maintenance across military installations and civilian federal buildings in the Northeast, with a portfolio dominated by total-small-business-set-aside delivery orders under standing indefinite-delivery contracts.

Sheela's customer concentration is heavily weighted toward the Department of Defense, particularly the Air Force Air Mobility Command (210 awards, $244 million combined potential value) and Army Installation Management Command Northeast Region (222 awards, $51.5 million), which together account for the majority of its award count. The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 2 represents the largest dollar concentration—only 12 awards but $516.9 million combined potential value—reflecting Sheela's seat on the $500 million PBS R2 General Construction and Design-Build Construction Services IDIQ. The Department of Army Corps of Engineers Philadelphia District contributes 185 awards totaling $105.2 million. These five customers represent 92% of awards and 92% of combined potential value, indicating tight customer concentration skewed toward military facilities and civilian federal buildings in the Northeast corridor.

Sheela competes almost exclusively under total-small-business set-asides across its delivery-order work; approximately 70% of awarded task orders are designated as small-business set-asides, positioning the company as a cornerstone federal contractor for facility modernization in the region. Capability work is concrete and built-environment focused: bathroom renovations, HVAC and controls repair, roof replacement, fire protection system overhauls, window and door replacement, asbestos and lead abatement, interior and exterior fencing, tree removal, hangar floor repair, pre-engineered metal building construction, and specialized facility consolidation projects. Representative prime work includes a $14.2 million Veterans Benefits Administration consolidation project at Federal Office Building 20 Washington Place, Newark, New Jersey (awarded August 2023, ultimate completion October 2026), a $5.8 million window replacement and related services delivery order at the Robert A. Roe Federal Building in Paterson, New Jersey under the GSA PBS R2 IDIQ (awarded September 2024), a $4.1 million design-build renovation of Grace Peterson Hall at Joint Base McGuire-Dix Lakehurst (awarded June 2024), and a $1.84 million solvent storage building envelope and steam tunnel repairs contract with the Department of Agriculture's Northeastern Area at Erdenheim, Pennsylvania (awarded September 2026, total small business set-aside, NAICS 238140, requiring Davis-Bacon prevailing wage, confined-space rescue capabilities, and historic masonry expertise).

Sheela's vehicle position centers on three core indefinite-delivery contracts. The Joint Base McGuire-Dix Lakehurst Construction MACC, a $134 million total-small-business-set-aside multiple-award competitive design-build vehicle established March 2021 and extending through February 2028, generates the largest single vehicle activity (84 task orders, $33.4 million combined potential value). The Dover Air Force Base Multiple Award Construction Contract, a $30 million total-small-business-set-aside vehicle, produces ongoing task orders for construction, renovation, repair, and facility maintenance at Dover AFB and associated locations. The PBS R2 IDIQ, a $500 million GSA-administered vehicle, enables task order activity across civilian federal facilities throughout the Northeast. Additionally, Sheela holds a newly awarded $200 million Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) from the Army Communications Electronics Command for maintenance, repair, and construction services in support of Tobyhanna Army Depot (awarded September 29, 2026, ultimate completion September 28, 2031, total small business set-aside) and a $350,000 Blanket Purchase Agreement from the Naval Air Warfare Center (awarded June 22, 2026, ultimate completion June 28, 2031).

Activity shows moderate volatility: 21 awards in 2022, 19 in 2023, 22 in 2024, 2 in 2025 (incomplete year at source date), and 7 in 2026 (through October 16). The recompete cliff presents modest exposure—nine awards (combined potential value $28.9 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. Top parent vehicles drive most work: Indefinite Delivery Contract W911SD14D0002 (218 task orders, $25.1 million), IDC W912BU10D0021 (163 task orders, $24.2 million), the Joint Base McGuire-Dix Lakehurst Construction MACC (84 task orders, $33.4 million), and IDC W912BU09G0024 (44 task orders, $23.8 million).

Work is concentrated by sector and scope: Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (NAICS 236220; 316 awards) and Industrial Building Construction (NAICS 237310; 220 awards) dominate the portfolio, with PSC framing centered on Construction of Schools (219 awards), Repair or Alteration of Miscellaneous Buildings (174 awards), and maintenance, repair, and alteration work across federal property categories (91 and 82 awards respectively).

On federal service contracts captured in SCI (Service Contract Inventory), Sheela reported invoiced amounts totaling $14.6 million across FY2022–FY2025, with FY2025 showing $5.6 million in invoicing across 2.8 contract-level FTEs. Median government-paid rates on SCI-reportable prime contracts ran around $478/hr, with senior labor pricing reaching the 90th percentile at $2,162/hr, reflecting the technical and supervisory content of its facility construction and renovation work. Across its SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors averaged 51% of total contractor hours, indicating Sheela operates as a general contractor engaging specialized trades for mechanical, electrical, plumbing, carpentry, flooring, and specialized abatement work. Named subcontractors include Brooklyn Woodworking Company Inc., Ironbound Carpet and Tile Company, and a range of HVAC, electrical, and plumbing specialists. Sheela does not report subcontractor awards; it operates exclusively as a prime, building delivery teams through subcontract engagement rather than serving as a feeder to larger primes.

Combined potential value across all 700 prime awards sits at $1.22 billion, with $196.8 million obligated to date (16% realization). The portfolio exhibits the scale and depth characteristic of a regional construction services prime anchored to military facilities and civilian federal building modernization in the Northeast.
