Georgia

The market, honestly.

Georgia carries the second-largest defense footprint in the Southeast after Virginia. Cyber and IT demand at Fort Eisenhower, depot work at Robins, and the Atlanta state market combine into a deep agency buyer base.

Air cargo and passenger volume through Atlanta, the Port of Savannah, aircraft maintenance at Robins, Army training at Fort Benning and Fort Stewart, and a large film and logistics sector.

For janitorial & custodial specifically in Georgia, our model is direct: AXA South responds to the solicitation, holds the contract, and runs the program. Local crews and licensed trade partners in Georgia perform the work that requires their license or specialized credentials.

Robins Air Force Base hosts an Air Logistics Complex, which means depot-level maintenance, tooling, and industrial supply requirements at a scale most bases never generate. Georgia DOAS runs statewide contracts, and the University System of Georgia and county school systems buy separately.

Timing

State fiscal year ends June 30. Depot workload at Robins follows aircraft induction schedules, so supply requirements there track production planning rather than the fiscal year. The federal fiscal year closes September 30, so August and September carry the heaviest volume of simplified-acquisition and micro-purchase activity at every installation in the state.

Set-asides

Georgia does not operate a statewide minority set-aside for general procurement. GDOT runs a federal DBE program, and Atlanta enforces its own EBO participation requirements on city contracts.

Where bids die

Treating the Port of Savannah's authority as a state agency. The Georgia Ports Authority procures independently, with its own registration and bid process.

FAQ

Do you self-perform the cleaning?

+

We do not maintain a national crew payroll. We hold the contract and run the program, and the labor is performed by a vetted local crew managed against our SLAs and the agency's PWS. This keeps wages, benefits, and supervision local while the agency sees one accountable prime.

Can you respond to a Service Contract Act solicitation?

+

Yes. We map every labor category to the applicable SCA wage determination, layer fringe correctly, and submit certified payroll on the cadence the agency requires.

What about AbilityOne mandatory sources?

+

When the building is on the AbilityOne Procurement List, we will tell you up front and either step aside or team with the designated nonprofit agency where appropriate. We do not chase awards we are not allowed to hold.
