Koontz Electric is a heavy industrial electrical contractor headquartered in Morrilton, Arkansas, competing exclusively as a prime on full-and-open definitive contracts and delivery orders, with a 44-year award history anchored to federal hydropower and power generation facility modernization. The contractor maintains a concentrated customer base dominated by the Army Corps of Engineers (45 awards, $172.9 million potential) and Department of the Army proper (13 awards, $72.4 million potential), with repeat awards at specific facilities including Fort Peck, Old Hickory, and Greers Ferry. Recent major work includes a $45.4 million Soo Locks generator and duct bank construction contract awarded March 2026 and a $14 million Powerhouse 1 cubicle room 15kV switchgear upgrade at Fort Peck Dam.
