Federal contracting comes with a lot of terms that do not mean much outside government circles. Here are plain answers to the questions people actually search for about companies like PFG.
Answers about SDVOSB certification.
PFG provides facilities support, construction and repair, freight and hazmat transport, grounds maintenance, moving services, and general support work for federal agencies. One team handles the entire job from start to finish, so a customer is never juggling multiple vendors for a single project.
Yes. PFG is majority owned and controlled by a service-disabled veteran, which is what makes it eligible for SDVOSB status. Full leadership details are on the About page.
PFG is headquartered in Georgia. Federal contract work is not limited by geography, so PFG takes on projects wherever an agency needs the work done.
Yes. PFG qualifies as a small business under SBA size standards for its NAICS codes, which is what opens the door to small business set-aside contracts in the first place.
The federal government is the largest single purchaser of goods and services in the world. Set-aside programs exist so a company like PFG gets a real shot at that spending, not just the largest corporations in the country.
SDVOSB stands for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business. It means a veteran with a service-connected disability owns most of the company and actually runs it, not just on paper. PFG qualifies under these rules, with certification currently in progress. Read the official rules on the Small Business Administration's website.
Both mean a business is majority owned and controlled by a veteran. SDVOSB specifically requires the veteran to have a service-connected disability, while VOSB does not. PFG qualifies under both categories.
A NAICS code is a number the government uses to sort businesses by what kind of work they do. It helps agencies match a contract to the right company. PFG holds codes for facilities support, construction, freight and hazmat transport, grounds maintenance, moving services, and general support. Look up any code on the U.S. Census Bureau's website.
SAM.gov is the government's official system for registering as a federal contractor. A company has to be listed there before it can bid on or win a federal contract. PFG's registration, along with its UEI and CAGE code, is currently in progress. Visit SAM.gov directly to see how it works.
UEI stands for Unique Entity ID. It is the number every business needs in SAM.gov to be eligible for federal contracts, and it replaced the older DUNS number system. PFG's UEI is part of its SAM.gov registration, currently in progress.
CAGE stands for Commercial and Government Entity code. It is a short code that identifies a specific business location for federal contracting and logistics purposes. PFG's CAGE code is part of its SAM.gov registration, currently in progress.
It is a short summary of what a company does, what it is certified for, and how to reach it. Contracting officers use it to quickly check if a business is a good fit. PFG's capability statement can be viewed online, and the full document is available on request.
A set-aside is a federal contract that only certain types of businesses are allowed to compete for, such as small businesses or SDVOSBs. Set-asides exist so smaller companies are not squeezed out by large corporations on every opportunity. Read more on the Small Business Administration's website.
A prime contractor holds the contract directly with the federal agency and is responsible for the entire scope of work. A subcontractor is hired by the prime to complete part of that work. PFG takes on both roles depending on the opportunity.
A business does not need its own SDVOSB certification to benefit from one. Prime contractors often team with certified small businesses to meet federal set-aside requirements, which is exactly why teaming inquiries matter to PFG.
Yes. PFG regularly teams with other businesses, sometimes as the prime contractor and sometimes as a subcontractor. Reach out through the Contact page to start that conversation.
PFG focuses on set-aside opportunities for SDVOSB, VOSB, and small businesses, primarily in facilities, construction, transportation, and general support for federal agencies.
Yes. PFG's freight and hazmat transport work follows the compliance rules set by the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, coordinated with certified carriers at every step.
