Southeast Cherokee Construction, Inc.

Southeast Cherokee Construction, Inc., a Women-Owned Small Business based in Montgomery, Alabama, operates as a prime contractor on design-build, general construction, renovation, and facility maintenance projects for the federal government, with 211 awards spanning over $4.6 billion in combined potential value and 46 customer agencies since 2001. The vendor is also certified as a Minority-Owned Business and Native American-Owned Business; the firm competes predominantly under Total Small Business and Woman-Owned Small Business set-asides across its federal prime footprint.

Customer concentration anchors heavily with the Army Corps of Engineers Mobile District (15 awards, $1.42 billion combined potential value), NASA Stennis Space Center (14 awards, $843 million), Air Combat Command (21 awards, $778.1 million), and Army Corps of Engineers Headquarters Military Programs (8 awards, $562 million). These four customer commands account for 89% of the vendor's combined potential value. The top-five-customer ranking shifts between award count and dollar concentration: Air Combat Command leads volume (21 awards) but trails the Mobile District in dollars; Stennis Space Center ranks second in dollars but fourth by award count, signaling larger individual task orders from the space center.

Southeast Cherokee Construction holds six active indefinite delivery vehicles totaling over $956 million in combined ceiling value. The primary vehicles are a $400 million Multiple Award Construction Contract (MACC) IDIQ with Air Combat Command through May 2031 for maintenance, repair, alteration, electrical, HVAC, demolition, and paving work at Joint Base Langley-Eustis and Seymour Johnson Air Force Base; a $200 million North Region Small Business MATOC with the Army Corps of Engineers Mobile District through July 2029 for design-build and general construction; a $200 million South Region Small Business MATOC with the Army Corps of Engineers Mobile District through July 2027 for general repair and construction; a $116.4 million Vertical Construction MATOC for Woman-Owned Small Businesses with the Army Corps of Engineers Fort Worth District through September 2028; a $49 million DHS Construction MATOC with FEMA through February 2031; and a $40 million construction services contract with the Mississippi Army National Guard through November 2027. The vendor places task orders under these vehicles at steady frequency: recent named examples include a $7.07 million firm fixed-price delivery order for KC-46 aircraft maintenance facility design and construction at MacDill Air Force Base under the Mobile District MATOC (awarded September 2024, completion May 2026), a $5.258 million delivery order for a Controls, Electronics, and Integration Laboratory at Redstone Arsenal under the same MATOC (awarded September 2024, completion June 2026), a $25.5 million delivery order for dormitory renovation at Joint Base Langley-Eustis under Air Combat Command (awarded November 2023, completion March 2026), and a $6.1 million delivery order for HVAC replacement and performance upgrades at Langley Air Force Base (awarded May 2024, completion July 2026).

Capability scope spans facility design-build, renovation, repair, alteration, demolition, HVAC replacement and system upgrades, pavement resurfacement, electrical and fire alarm system upgrades, mold remediation, and airfield lighting replacement. The vendor engages specialized subcontractors for structural steel, HVAC, roofing, electrical, plumbing, demolition, painting, flooring, fire suppression, and site utilities work. Representative subcontractor partners named across recent awards include Johnson Controls for HVAC controls and instrumentation, Davcon for mechanical installation, Siemens for building automation, American Mechanical Solutions for HVAC and plumbing, Tampa Bay Electric for electrical work, Cross Construction Services for demolition, Moon Construction Services for pre-engineered metal buildings, and Lee Company for HVAC and plumbing. The vendor maintains a disciplined subcontracting posture: across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed 31% of total contractor hours on average, and the vendor named ten distinct subcontractors in SCI records.

Award volume has declined in recent years—nine awards in 2022, ten in 2023, five in 2024, four in 2025, and three in 2026—suggesting either a consolidation toward larger task orders under existing vehicles or a narrowing pipeline. Five awards (combined potential value $24 million) carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months and face recompete exposure in that window. SCI-reportable invoicing—a partial view covering federal service contracts above $150,000 and excluding goods and non-federal revenue—totaled $7.7 million across FY2022–FY2024 (FY2022: $957 thousand; FY2023: $2.8 million; FY2024: $3.9 million), with roughly 1.6 to 7.0 FTEs reported per fiscal year. On these SCI-reportable contracts, median government-paid rates ran around $238.60 per hour, with senior labor pricing reaching $788.95 per hour and entry-level work at $163.66 per hour.
