Shine On Group, Inc.

Shine On Group, Inc., a small business based in Chicago, Illinois, provides fall protection system inspection, maintenance, certification, training, and safety anchor installation services to federal facilities as a prime contractor, competing exclusively under total small business set-asides and full-and-open designations across a portfolio of six recent awards totaling $589 thousand in combined potential value.

Shine On Group operates in a specialized niche within building inspection and workplace safety. The company's concrete capability set centers on annual inspection and recertification of fall arrest systems (including Latchways 7001 Mansafe systems and flexible lifeline systems), hands-on training for personnel on proper equipment use, maintenance and repair services, rooftop safety anchor installation, and compliance documentation under OSHA standards and manufacturer specifications. Representative work includes a $121,025 definitive contract with the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (awarded September 2026, running through September 2032) for fall arrest system maintenance, inspection, and training across approximately 4,980 linear feet of fall protection equipment at the agency's Washington, DC headquarters; a $330 thousand single-award indefinite-delivery contract with the U.S. Air Force (awarded June 2026, running through June 2031) for recertification and inspection of anchor points for fall protection systems at Ogden Air Logistics Complex and Utah Training Test Range; and a $29,565 purchase order from the U.S. Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service (awarded September 2024) for annual fall protection system inspection at the National Center for Animal Health facility in Ames, Iowa.

Customer concentration spans five distinct federal agencies. The Department of the Air Force anchors the portfolio by potential value ($330 thousand on one IDV award), while the Department of the Treasury's Bureau of Engraving and Printing leads by award count (two awards, $143 thousand combined potential value). The Railroad Retirement Board, the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command, and USDA's Agricultural Research Service round out the active set. Shine On Group competes under total small business set-asides on the majority of its contracts (five of six awards); the single full-and-open award is the Railroad Retirement Board rooftop safety anchor installation contract ($54,750, awarded September 2024).

Activity remains early-stage and flat — two awards each in 2024, 2025, and 2026 — with one award (the Railroad Retirement Board contract, $55 thousand combined potential value) reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore facing recompete. Shine On Group holds no parent vehicle positions, subcontracts to no other primes, and carries no sub-award footprint; all work is performed as a prime contractor under individual purchase orders and one indefinite-delivery vehicle. NAICS coding runs across Building Inspection Services (three awards), Roofing Contractors, and specialty trade and consulting categories. The company has not yet achieved significant scale on federal work — total obligated dollars across all awards are $123 thousand, representing 21 percent of combined potential value — but has demonstrated repeat-customer traction with the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (two awards within one year) and established positions on infrastructure-critical inspection and safety mandates.
