Aktarius LLC

Aktarius LLC, doing business as Dawson AKT, is a Native Hawaiian-owned small disadvantaged business certified under the SBA's 8(a) program, headquartered in Panama City, Florida, that delivers facilities maintenance, HVAC systems repair, fire protection services, engineering support, and infrastructure improvements to the Department of Defense and federal civilian agencies as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards). Operating as a subsidiary of Hawaiian Native Corporation, Aktarius LLC competes across both 8(a) sole-source and competitive 8(a) set-asides, with secondary presence in full-and-open procurements.

Aktarius LLC's concrete service delivery centers on HVAC maintenance and repair, chiller system upgrades, direct digital control system replacements, fire protection systems installation and maintenance, electrical and mechanical infrastructure work, facilities operations and maintenance, and specialized technical staffing. Recent representative work includes a $77.8 million Defense Medical Logistics Standard Support technical services contract awarded by Army Corps of Engineers Huntsville for DHA CONUS support (February 2026, 8(a) sole-source), a $4.77 million cast iron piping replacement delivery order at Kings Bay Base, Georgia (July 2024, 8(a) sole-source), a $3.59 million building renovation contract with Air Force Research Laboratory at Eglin AFB for ten-room renovation including abatement, demolition, electrical, and furniture installation (November 2024, 8(a) sole-source), and recurring fire protection systems maintenance and repair services for the Red Hill Fleet Logistics Center valued at $11.4 million (June 2024, Total Small Business).

Customer concentration is heavily weighted to the Department of the Navy. The top five funding agencies account for 82% of combined potential value: the Army's Joint PEO Chemical and Biological Defense ($1.81 billion across 5 awards), Naval Facilities Engineering Command ($478.6 million across 141 awards), Air Combat Command ($357.1 million across 4 awards), FBI Headquarters Division ($167.2 million across 4 awards), and Pacific Fleet Forces ($83.2 million across 27 awards). Awards-per-year data shows growth through 2024 (132 awards) followed by moderation in 2025 (70 awards) and 2026 year-to-date (42 awards), indicating normalization after peak activity. Within the next twenty-four months, forty-one awards totaling $173 million in combined potential value are due for completion or recompete.

Aktarius LLC holds seven significant parent vehicles spanning multiple service domains. The largest by ceiling is the $1.81 billion Joint Enterprise Contracted Logistics and Services Support II contract with Army's Joint PEO Chemical and Biological Defense (8(a) sole-source, no documented task orders in the source period, but referenced in award summaries). Next are a $350 million Air Combat Command construction IDIQ for design-build and bid-build work at Davis-Monthan and Luke AFBs (Competitive 8(a), multiple-award, awarded January 2025), a $180 million Naval Facilities Engineering Command ocean engineering support vehicle for cable systems, moorings, and construction equipment (Total Small Business, multiple-award, December 2024), a $165 million FBI Enterprise Logistics Support Services IDIQ for mail, shipping, warehousing, and transportation (Competitive 8(a), multiple-award, September 2023), a $115 million Navy MEP/FP construction contract for Naval Station Great Lakes and regional NOSCs (Competitive 8(a), multiple-award, June 2023), a $99 million Naval Facilities Engineering Command engineering and logistics support vehicle (8(a) sole-source, single-award, parent to 72 delivery orders across the source period), and smaller vehicles including the $11.4 million Red Hill fire protection IDV (Total Small Business, single-award), an $8.98 million Humphreys Engineer Center O&M contract (8(a) sole-source, single-award, parent to multiple HVAC and facilities task orders), a $3.49 million SCADA systems IDIQ at Naval Station Great Lakes (8(a) sole-source, single-award), and a $1.35 million Central Office snow removal contract (8(a) sole-source, single-award). Aktarius LLC also holds a seat on the GSA OASIS+ Unrestricted multiple-award MAC (no set-aside, awarded December 2024, placeholder ceiling).

Activity has grown from 38 awards in 2022 to a peak of 132 awards in 2024, driven by high-volume delivery-order issuance under parent IDVs—particularly the Naval Facilities Engineering Command engineering and logistics support vehicle, which accounts for 72 task orders, and N6247822D2402, which carries 140 task orders at $47.7 million combined value. The top five parent vehicles span NAVFAC, Army, and Navy platforms, reflecting Aktarius LLC's established position as a preferred facilities and engineering support provider across Pacific Fleet and strategic military installations. Award categories concentrate in HVAC and refrigeration contracting (149 awards, NAICS 441730), engineering services (82 awards, NAICS 541330), and facilities support (51 awards, NAICS 561210).

SCI-reported invoicing across federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold totaled $119.4 million from FY2022 to FY2025 ($26.8M in FY2022, $21M in FY2023, $37.1M in FY2024, $34.4M in FY2025). The SCI data represents a strict subset of federal services activity and excludes goods, micro-purchases, and classified work. Reported FTE delivery ranged from 57.5 FTEs in FY2023 to 102 FTEs in FY2024, settling at 90.9 FTEs in FY2025. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, government-paid hourly rates show wide dispersion: median $169.01/hr, with the 10th percentile at $83.11/hr and the 90th percentile at $1,342.79/hr, reflecting a portfolio mixing high-volume HVAC maintenance labor (lower rates) and specialized engineering and technical staff support (senior rates). Aktarius LLC self-performs approximately 90% of contractor hours on SCI-reportable prime contracts, with subcontractors averaging 10% of hours. Named subcontractors across the SCI portfolio include Signature Science, Nakupuna Solutions LLC, Paul Patrick Electric Inc., Debonair Mechanical Inc., Emcor Government Services Inc., and others, typically engaged for HVAC, electrical, and specialized mechanical work.

Aktarius LLC competes almost exclusively under 8(a) set-asides—both sole-source and competitive—across its prime footprint, with secondary competition in full-and-open federal procurements at military installations. The company's teaming pattern shows it operates as a prime contractor on the vast majority of work, engineering subs for specialized technical domains (mechanical systems, electrical, fire protection) rather than relying on prime relationships for most revenue. Its subsidiary status under Hawaiian Native Corporation, combined with active 8(a) certification through September 28, 2029, positions it as a strategic partner for DoD facilities support and infrastructure modernization at installations nationwide, with particular operational depth in Hawaii and the Pacific region.
