Dakota Electric, Inc.

Dakota Electric, Inc., doing business as Patriot Construction, is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) based in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, that performs construction, electrical, HVAC, and facility maintenance work for the federal government almost exclusively as a prime contractor under SDVOSB set-asides. The vendor operates across commercial and institutional building construction (NAICS 238220, 238210) and holds 30 of its 31 recent federal awards as a prime, with only one sub-award on record.

Customer concentration is extreme and immobile. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 23 (VISN 23) accounts for 26 of 31 awards and $72.9 million of the $77.5 million combined potential value — 94% of the vendor's recent federal footprint. The remaining four awards (Department of the Army, General Services Administration, Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons, and Department of the Navy) total $4.6 million and represent opportunistic placements outside VISN 23. All work is performed at the Sioux Falls VA Healthcare System or related VA facilities in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Recent representative work includes a $11.49 million firm-fixed-price definitive contract awarded July 23, 2026, for HVAC system replacement and upgrade at the VA Sioux Falls Healthcare System's Community Living Center, with ultimate completion scheduled for January 21, 2028, and a $52,410 emergency-repair contract awarded April 16, 2025, for medium-voltage electrical work at the Sioux Falls VA Medical Center. Dakota Electric's capability portfolio centers on facility construction, electrical installation, HVAC systems work, and emergency repairs within the VA healthcare infrastructure — 12 awards carry PSC codes for hospital and infirmary maintenance, and an additional four awards cover HVAC, electrical installation, and related building systems.

The vendor sits on the VISN 23 Construction MATOC 2014–2018 vehicle, which generated 8 task orders worth $10.3 million combined potential value, and on the GSA Federal Supply Schedule GS21F089AA, with 2 task orders valued at $68 thousand. Activity over the past five years shows flat volume (one award each in 2018, 2019, 2022, 2025, and 2026 in the source data) driven by large, multi-million-dollar definitive contracts rather than numerous smaller orders. One award—the $11.49 million HVAC replacement contract—reaches ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and faces recompete. The single sub-award on record, as an electrical subcontractor on MDM Construction LLC's December 2022 sub-award for Building 5 Halls & Walls Phase 2 construction at Sioux Falls VA, represents minimal sub-tier engagement; the vendor operates predominantly as a prime. Service Contract Inventory data shows Dakota Electric as a named subcontractor on 14 SCI-reportable records spanning FY2022–FY2025, delivering roughly 176 FTEs in FY2024 (the highest-utilization year) and 3.7 FTEs in FY2025; this SCI footprint is a partial capture of the vendor's sub-tier work and does not reflect the full scope of the vendor's federal business, which is dominated by prime construction contracts outside the SCI reporting threshold.
