About the company

Firelake Construction Inc., a Lawrence, Kansas–headquartered women-owned small business, delivers mechanical, electrical, and plumbing infrastructure; HVAC systems; fire protection; security system installation and maintenance; facility renovation; and biocontainment laboratory improvements as a prime contractor (79% of recent awards) and as a subcontractor to federal primes including Firelake-Arrowhead NASA Services, Firelake-Diversified JV2 LLC, Mill Creek entities, and Honeywell Federal Manufacturing & Technologies. The company holds SBA certifications as an Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB), Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB), 8(a) Program participant, Indian Economic Enterprise, and Native American–owned entity. Firelake operates as a Subchapter S corporation and self-certified small disadvantaged business under primary NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and secondary codes spanning plumbing and HVAC, security systems services, and electrical contracting.

The Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service Plains Area dominates customer concentration, accounting for 170 of 336 awards counted in the top-five ranking (66% share by count) and $189.8 million of combined potential value—primarily through a $31.143 million single-award Job Order Contract (JOC) IDIQ for the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility (NBAF) in Manhattan, Kansas, and a $4.5 million general construction IDIQ in College Station, Texas. The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 6 ranks second by dollars ($83.9 million across 14 awards on a $25 million IDIQ), while the Air National Guard ($77.5 million across 6 awards, including a $38 million shared-capacity IDIQ in Nebraska) and the Army Corps of Engineers Kansas City and Tulsa Districts ($40.1 million and $14.8 million respectively) anchor defense work. EPA, NASA Langley, and NASA Glenn round out the top tier. The award portfolio spans 56 distinct agencies, reflecting broad federal reach balanced against deep concentration at USDA ARS Plains Area.

Firelake's parent vehicle footprint emphasizes single-award and multiple-award IDIQs. The $31.143 million NBAF JOC (awarded November 2024, total small business set-aside, through November 2029) has issued 16 task orders totaling approximately $26.4 million—including major biocontainment lab projects ($6.6 million penetration sealing, $6.99 million pressure monitor improvements, $3.3 million building automation controls, $3.4 million bio-waste drain flushing). The $25 million GSA Region 6 IDIQ (awarded February 2024, multiple award, total small business set-aside, through January 2029) covers Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, and Missouri; recent work includes facade cleaning and tuckpointing at Wichita U.S. Courthouse ($2.047 million). The $38 million Air National Guard Nebraska IDIQ (multiple award, total small business set-aside, May 2025 through August 2029) funds HVAC, plumbing, and construction at National Guard facilities. The $4.5 million Army Corps of Engineers Tulsa District IDIQ (8(a) sole source, December 2024 through December 2029) addresses construction and facility services. Additional single-award vehicles include older IDICs in Lubbock, Texas ($4.547 million, through August 2027) and College Station, Texas ($4.502 million, through July 2027). Across these vehicles, Firelake issues task orders ranging from $2,500 minimum guarantees to multi-million-dollar capital projects.

Recent activity shows sustained engagement: 50 awards in 2026 (year-to-date through late September), 75 in 2025, 75 in 2024, down from 58 in 2023 and 48 in 2022. The recompete cliff exposes $39.5 million in combined potential value across 20 awards reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, centered on NBAF projects, GSA courthouse work, and smaller facility maintenance orders across USDA and DoD installations. Set-aside posture leans heavily on total small business, woman-owned small business, and 8(a) sole-source designations; fewer than 20% of awards are full-and-open, reflecting the company's reliance on protected categories.

SCI-reported invoicing totaled $57.2 million across FY2022–FY2025 (104 prime contracts above the $150,000 threshold), with FY2025 reaching $23.2 million invoiced across 19.2 FTEs—a steady rise from $6.3 million on 7.5 FTEs in FY2022. Government-paid hourly rates on prime contracts median around $606.63/hr, with a spectrum from $143.73/hr (10th percentile) to $1,899.16/hr (90th percentile), reflecting a mix of project management, craft labor, and technical supervision work. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, Firelake self-performs approximately 82% of contractor hours and engages 78 named subcontractors for the remaining 18% share, indicating a balanced delivery posture with selective subcontracting for specialized scopes such as testing and balancing (Accutec Services, Inc.), penetration sealing (MVP LLC), and mechanical installation (Agassiz Mechanical Inc., Skillman Construction LLC). In recent joint-venture activity, Firelake partners with Arrowhead Group and Diversified as a co-prime or subcontractor on EPA ORD/R6 lab consolidation work in Ada, Oklahoma and NASA Langley construction management and inspection support, signaling expansion into larger federal construction programs beyond its traditional USDA research facility base.

Firelake's capability footprint is concrete and geographically concentrated. The company specializes in MEP infrastructure at federal research labs (NBAF biocontainment improvements, USDA ARS facility upgrades), facility maintenance and renovation across regional federal buildings (GSA courthouses, military bases), security system installation and intrusion detection maintenance (Army and Air Force installations at Fort Riley and Lincoln), fire protection upgrades, and HVAC system replacements. Representative contracts include a $6.45 million design-build bunkhouse and support facilities project at Lake Andes National Wildlife Refuge in South Dakota (executed with Wagner Building & Supply and Pye-Barker Fire & Safety as subs), a $4.54 million FAA building renovation at the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center in Oklahoma City (competitive 8(a)), a $3.97 million FAA power transfer system upgrade in Oklahoma City (competitive 8(a)), and a $1.34 million DoD alarm maintenance technician contract in Warren, Michigan (8(a) sole source). Work is performed nationwide with administrative headquarters in Lawrence, Kansas and operational presence across the central, southern, and mid-Atlantic regions, with particular density in Kansas, Texas, Oklahoma, North Dakota, and South Dakota tied to USDA agricultural research footprint and Army Corps operations.
