About Southeast Painters Inc.

Southeast Painters Inc., a woman-owned small business based in Chattanooga, Tennessee, operates exclusively as a subcontractor delivering painting and coatings services to military construction primes, with all seven recent awards flowing through general contractors on Army Corps of Engineers and Air Force facility projects. The firm is structured as a Subchapter S corporation and competes entirely within the woman-owned small business set-aside posture, with no prime contracting or IDV seats in the current award footprint.

The vendor's customer base is narrowly concentrated within defense construction. The Army Corps of Engineers Headquarters Military Programs and the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Mobile account for six of seven awards (86% coverage), with the Department of the Air Force holding the remaining one. Dollar concentration tracks customer concentration — the top three agencies represent 100% of the $3.9 million in combined obligated value across the portfolio, reflecting the small-dollar, task-order nature of painting scope on larger facility projects.

Southeast Painters subcontracts almost exclusively to two primes: BL Harbert International LLC, which anchors six of seven awards across multiple Army and Air Force facility projects at undisclosed locations between February 2023 and January 2024, and Turner Construction Company, which awarded one painting task on the DRAGONFIRE Primary Facilities MILCON project at Arnold Air Force Base in January 2025. Work performed under BL Harbert spans painting scope on a subscale drone facility construction, a marina and outdoor recreation facility, a water and fence infrastructure project, a supply warehouse building sprinkler system installation, supporting sitework for exercise bid options, and aircraft sunshade construction at Tyndall Air Force Base. The vendor also placed two task orders under the Tyndall Air Force Base Reconstruction MATOC and one under the Facilities Acquisitions for Restoration and Modernization II (FARM II) vehicle.

Activity has contracted sharply from four awards in 2023 to two in 2024 and one in 2025, reflecting the cyclical nature of facility construction work and potential exposure to recompete on the Tyndall AFB and FARM II vehicles. The vendor's capability set is narrow and concrete — commercial painting, protective coatings, and surface preparation on military construction projects — with no diversification into design, engineering, or prime-contracting scope. All work is performed in a subcontractor role supporting general contractors on Army Corps of Engineers and Air Force military construction initiatives.
