Opportunity Snapshot: Fort Stewart & Hunter Army Airfield IDIQ Painting Contract
Federal Contractors Lab community — here’s a large construction/maintenance opportunity worth studying.
This requirement is for an IDIQ painting contract covering Fort Stewart and Hunter Army Airfield, Georgia. The Army intends to award an IDIQ contract for interior and exterior painting, surface preparation, repair, refinishing, and related work across both installations.
Scope of Work includes:
✅ Interior and exterior painting
✅ Surface preparation and repair
✅ Lead paint testing, removal, and disposal
✅ Ceiling, wall, door, window, trim, and floor painting
✅ Gypsum board, plaster, wallcovering, and textured finish repairs
✅ Concrete floor sealing, epoxy coating, and anti-slip finish work
✅ Wood floor refinishing, staining, polyurethane coating, and athletic court striping
✅ Miscellaneous painting and repair work across Fort Stewart and Hunter Army Airfield
Why this matters:
This is not a one-time painting job. It is a multi-year IDIQ vehicle for recurring painting and finish work across active Army installations. The government needs a contractor that can respond to task orders, manage varied building conditions, handle hazardous paint issues, and maintain facility appearance and usability over time.
Key contractor takeaways:
This is a sealed bid construction solicitation, not a standard RFQ. Bids must follow the SF 1442 instructions, and contractors must complete the required bid schedule, representations and certifications, and acknowledge amendments.
The project is set aside for HUBZone contractors, and offerors must be registered in SAM under NAICS 238320 — Painting and Wall Covering Contractors.
The magnitude is significant. The solicitation states the project magnitude is between $5 million and $10 million, and bid bond, payment bond, and performance bond requirements apply.
The amendment changed the bid submission/opening time from 2:00 PM EST to 2:30 PM EST on May 28, 2026, and offerors must acknowledge the amendment in their bid submission.
Potential NAICS areas to research:
🔹 238320 — Painting and Wall Covering Contractors
🔹 238310 — Drywall and Insulation Contractors
🔹 238330 — Flooring Contractors
🔹 238390 — Other Building Finishing Contractors
🔹 562910 — Remediation Services
Go/No-Go questions for contractors:
Are you a qualified HUBZone contractor?
Are you registered in SAM under NAICS 238320?
Can you handle a multi-year IDIQ painting workload at Fort Stewart and Hunter Army Airfield?
Can you provide required bid, payment, and performance bonds?
Can you manage lead paint testing, removal, and hazardous disposal?
Can you price a large unit-price bid schedule accurately?
Can you perform interior/exterior painting, gypsum/plaster repairs, epoxy floors, wood refinishing, and specialty finishes?
Can you submit hard copy and CD bid documents exactly as instructed?
This is the type of opportunity where a compliant bid should clearly show bonding readiness, HUBZone eligibility, correct SAM registration, careful unit pricing, amendment acknowledgment, and the ability to manage recurring painting task orders across military facilities.
Study the bid schedule, amendment, bonding requirements, and submission instructions carefully. The government needs a contractor that can support professional facility appearance, safe surface preparation, and dependable painting services across both installations.
