About the company
Howard Tipton is a self-certified small disadvantaged business operating as a sole proprietorship based in Farragut, Tennessee, that performs flooring installation, carpet removal and disposal, and interior renovation labor on federal building maintenance and renovation projects, primarily as a subcontractor (27% of recent awards) and occasionally as a prime contractor (73% of recent awards) to federal agencies.
Tipton's work centers on commercial and institutional building construction and flooring contracting. Recent subcontract work includes flooring removal and installation on a senior judges chamber renovation at the Howard Baker Federal Courthouse in Knoxville, Tennessee, under prime Chitina Diversified Services (awarded April 2026); structural settlement and roofing repairs with flooring demo and installation at the same courthouse (awarded July 2025); and interior renovation labor including flooring and painting for Senator Hagerty's office buildout at the Joel W. Solomon Federal Building in Chattanooga, Tennessee, also under Chitina Diversified Services (awarded April 2022). Top NAICS classifications reflect the portfolio: Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (5 awards) and Flooring Contractors (4 awards), with PSC codes covering Housekeeping–Carpet Laying/Cleaning, Floor Coverings, and Repair or Alteration of Office Buildings.
Customer concentration is dispersed across federal building-services customers. The General Services Administration's Public Buildings Service leads by award count (3 awards, $10 thousand combined potential value), followed by the Judicial Branch (2 awards, $8 thousand) and GSA PBS Region 4 (2 awards). Activity is minimal and episodic — one award in 2022, one in 2025, one in 2026 — with eleven total awards spanning from 2001 to present. Combined obligated dollars ($344 thousand) exceed combined potential value ($110 thousand), indicating contract performance and closeout. Tipton subcontracts to Chitina Diversified Services, a prime contractor that anchors the three named federal building renovation projects. Tipton holds a seat on GSA Indefinite Delivery Contract 47PE1925D0043.
