A contractor that makes the contracting officer's job easier
We pursue HVAC and construction work through SAM.gov and state and local bid portals, and we perform it with the documentation, compliance, and communication that public projects require.
Why we chose government work
Public buildings are where people get their benefits processed, report for duty, fight fires, and see a doctor. They deserve the same care as any private project. Most of the time they get less.
We built US Builders to compete for that work and to do it properly. That means reading the specifications instead of skimming them, pricing the project we'll actually build, and treating submittals, certified payroll, and closeout as real deliverables rather than chores.
Contracting officers, CORs, and facility managers have plenty of contractors who can do the work. What they need is one who also handles the paperwork, communicates early, and doesn't turn every unknown into a change order. That's the contractor we work hard to be.

How we pursue and deliver a government project
Qualify the opportunity
We monitor SAM.gov and state and local portals for work that matches our licenses, NAICS codes, and capacity. We only bid on projects we're confident we can deliver well.
Read everything and walk the site
Specifications, drawings, the wage determination, every amendment. We attend site visits and submit questions early, so the answers reach every bidder in time.
Submit a complete, compliant offer
Every required form, representation, and certification, plus a technical approach written for the evaluator and a price built from real quantities and quotes.
Kick off with a clear plan
After award: the preconstruction meeting, a baseline schedule, the safety plan, the QC plan, and the submittal register, delivered on time.
Build, report, and communicate
Daily reports, weekly progress updates, and early notice of anything that could affect cost or schedule. The COR is never the last to know.
Close out completely
Punch list, final inspection, as-builts, O&M manuals, warranties, training, and the release of claims, so the contract can actually be closed.
Frequently asked
Where can I find your UEI, CAGE code, and NAICS codes?
All of them are on our capability statement page, which also prints as a one-page PDF. You can confirm our registration on SAM.gov by searching our UEI.
Are you interested in sources-sought and RFI responses?
Yes. We respond to sources-sought notices and market research requests for work in our trades, because that's how an agency learns whether qualified small businesses are available for a set-aside.
Can you provide bid, performance, and payment bonds?
Yes. We're bonded through [surety company], and we can provide bid, performance, and payment bonds as required by the solicitation. Contact us for current bonding capacity.
How do I add US Builders to a bidders list?
Email or call us with the agency name and the type of work, and we'll get our information to whoever maintains your list. You can also send us a solicitation directly.
