About the company
The Sherwin-Williams Company, operating through its child entity The Sherwin Williams Co based in Portsmouth, Virginia, supplies military-specification paints, coatings, epoxy primers, and marine protective coating systems to the Department of the Navy as a prime contractor competing on full-and-open (non-set-aside) basis. The company is a for-profit manufacturer of goods and a child entity of the parent The Sherwin-Williams Company headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio.
Sherwin-Williams' federal footprint centers on Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) supply relationships. NAVSEA accounts for 88 of 102 total awards (97% of award count) and $357 thousand of $554 thousand combined potential value. The remaining customer concentration splits across Department of the Navy Fleet Forces Command (Atlantic) at $127 thousand from a single $126,921 purchase order for MILSPEC paint dated February 2022, Department of the Navy Pacific Fleet Forces at $53 thousand from two awards, Department of the Navy Military Sealift Command, and the Department of Homeland Security Coast Guard. Representative prime work includes a $92,719 Defense Logistics Agency purchase order for specialized epoxy products and non-skid deck coatings (August 2021, NAVSEA), a $9,998 NAVSEA purchase order for marine coatings supporting Portsmouth naval shipyard operations (May 2022), and recurring small purchase orders ($1,000–$5,000) for ColorFlake basecoats, sealants, vinyl chips, primers, and methyl ethyl ketone spanning 2021 through December 2025. All named NAICS concentration falls within Paint and Coating Manufacturing (90 awards), with ancillary shipbuilding and wood preservation work. All prime awards carry firm fixed-price purchase order structures with no set-aside designations.
Sherwin-Williams also subcontracts to Huntington Ingalls Inc. on the CVN 80/81 aircraft carrier detailed design and construction program, supplying five-gallon kits and containers of siloxane paint and various paint products as of November 2024. The subcontract footprint is minimal (4 of 102 awards, 4% split) compared to the dominant prime posture.
Activity has declined measurably. Awards per year fell from 11 in 2023 to 4 in 2024 and 2 in 2025 (year-to-date through December). The combined potential value of $554 thousand across all 102 awards is substantially lower than dollars obligated ($895 thousand, 161% of potential value), indicating historical invoicing has exceeded stated ceiling values on smaller purchase orders. Work is performed in Portsmouth, Virginia with occasional subordinate activity at naval facilities including Kings Bay, Georgia for submarine preservation efforts under indefinite delivery contracts referenced in award narratives but not separately listed as parent vehicles in the source.
