01 / Set-Aside Authority
Your SDVOSB goal, our trade. The math works.
Every federal agency now carries a 5 percent SDVOSB contracting goal — raised from 3 percent by Section 863 of the FY2024 National Defense Authorization Act. Most agencies are still short of it. Roofing is one of the trades where a contracting officer can actually close that gap: it is a defined, competitively-priced scope with clear specifications and measurable completion.
Under FAR 19.1405, a contracting officer must set a requirement aside for SDVOSB competition when two or more capable SDVOSB firms are expected to bid — the Rule of Two. Where only one capable firm exists, FAR 19.1406 allows sole-source SDVOSB awards up to $5 million on construction scopes. And every purchase between $10,000 and the $250,000 simplified acquisition threshold is already reserved for small business by default.
In the Texas Panhandle, certified SDVOSB commercial roofing contractors are scarce. That is the entire point of Centennial Shield: a certified firm, in the region, in the trade, that can put SDVOSB dollars on your books with work that passes inspection.
02 / VA Vets First
The VA buys SDVOSB first. By statute.
The Department of Veterans Affairs runs the strictest veteran preference in federal procurement. Under the Vets First Contracting Program (VAAR Subpart 819.70), VA contracting officers must consider SDVOSB firms before every other category — above and below the simplified acquisition threshold. It is not a tiebreaker; it is the order of operations.
The Thomas E. Creek VA Medical Center in Amarillo sits inside our home service area, and VA facilities across the region carry continuous facility-maintenance and modernization workloads — the kind of repair, alteration, and re-roofing scopes that move through SDVOSB set-asides. A veteran-owned roofing contractor doing the roof over veterans' care is how the program was meant to work.
03 / Prime Contractors
Primes: your subcontracting plan needs a roofing line.
Federal prime contracts above $750,000 require a small-business subcontracting plan with SDVOSB percentage goals, and supplier diversity managers spend real effort hunting for certified subs in self-performing trades. Roofing scope is a clean way to book those dollars: it is a discrete bid item with its own spec section, schedule window, and closeout documentation.
We quote subcontract roofing scope on federal, state, and institutional projects across the Panhandle — including work for primes serving the region's federal installations, from VA facilities to the Pantex Plant northeast of Amarillo, whose supplier-diversity program tracks SDVOSB participation. Send the roofing section of your spec and we will return a compliant, documented quote.

04 / State & Municipal
Texas, county, city, and school district work.
Federal SDVOSB certification and Texas's state-level veteran business program are separate credentials — the state's VetHUB program, administered by the Texas Comptroller, gives certified veteran-owned firms direct visibility to state agencies and universities, including direct-purchase authority on smaller orders. The certifications stack: federal work runs through SBA VetCert, state work through the Comptroller's directory.
Closer to home, the Panhandle's public roof inventory is enormous and aging: school districts from Amarillo ISD to Canyon ISD, county courthouses, municipal buildings, and university facilities all run flat and low-slope roofs through the same hail seasons. Public owners get the same engineering we bring to federal work — documented inspections, code-correct wind-uplift specifications, and warranties from a certified installer.

Procurement FAQ
- SDVOSB certification is issued by the U.S. Small Business Administration through the VetCert program (certifications.sba.gov). Contracting officers can confirm status through SAM.gov and SBA's Dynamic Small Business Search. Our certification documentation is included with every bid package, and we will provide it on request before you ever see a solicitation response from us.
- Yes. SBA VetCert certification covers all federal agencies, including the Department of Veterans Affairs. Under the VA's Vets First Contracting Program (VAAR Subpart 819.70), VA contracting officers must consider SDVOSB firms first — ahead of every other set-aside category — when two or more capable SDVOSBs exist. For roofing scopes in the Texas Panhandle, that pool is small.
- Both. We bid as a prime on SDVOSB set-aside and small-business set-aside solicitations, and we perform as a subcontractor for large primes that need certified SDVOSB participation to meet the goals in their small-business subcontracting plans.
- Our primary code is 238160 (Roofing Contractors). Depending on scope, work may also fall under adjacent codes such as 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction). The full registered code list appears on our capability statement.
- Texas does not issue one — the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation does not license roofing contractors, so no roofer in Texas holds a state roofing license. What matters on government work is insurance, bonding, manufacturer certification, and code-compliant specifications. We carry manufacturer certifications from Mule-Hide for TPO, EPDM, and PVC systems, and we pull city building permits on every project that requires them.
- Bonding and insurance certificates are provided with every bid package, sized to the contract. Federal construction work above the Miller Act threshold requires performance and payment bonds, and we structure our bids accordingly. Ask for current documentation when you request our capability statement.
- Yes. The government-wide goal — raised from 3% to 5% by the FY2024 National Defense Authorization Act — covers both prime and subcontract dollars. That is why large primes actively look for certified SDVOSB roofing subs: every dollar of our scope counts toward their subcontracting plan.
- Re-roofing and roof replacement, repair and alteration, preventive maintenance programs, roof coatings and restoration, and new-construction roofing on commercial and institutional buildings — TPO, EPDM, PVC, modified bitumen, standing-seam metal, and fluid-applied systems.
