About Firelake Construction Inc.

Firelake Construction Inc., a Lawrence, Kansas-based women-owned small business, delivers construction, facility upgrade, and infrastructure maintenance services to federal agencies as a prime contractor on 395 awards (99% of recent activity). The company holds SBA certifications as an Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB), Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB), 8(a) Program participant, and Indian Economic Enterprise, positioning it to compete across multiple small-business set-asides. Firelake operates as a Subchapter S corporation with no named subsidiaries.

Firelake's capability footprint centers on mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) infrastructure; HVAC system design and replacement; fire protection services; security system installation and maintenance; facility renovation and demolition; and specialized biocontainment laboratory improvements. Recent representative work includes a $31.1 million single-award IDC with USDA Agricultural Research Service for construction and facility upgrades at the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility (NBAF) in Manhattan, Kansas—awarded November 2024 with sixteen executed delivery orders totaling $26.4 million through June 2026 for projects such as biocontainment lab pressure monitor improvements ($6.99 million), penetration sealing ($6.6 million), and building automation controls enhancements ($3.3 million). A $4.54 million Competitive 8(a) definitive contract with the Federal Aviation Administration (awarded September 2023) covers mechanical, electrical, and elevator system renovations at the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center in Oklahoma City. A $7.015 million total small business set-aside definitive contract with the Bureau of Reclamation (awarded January 2025) addresses concrete repairs and access road construction at Medicine Creek Dam in Nebraska.

Customer concentration is dominated by USDA Agricultural Research Service Plains Area, which accounts for 167 awards (42% of recent total) and $191.7 million combined potential value. The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 6 supplies 14 awards and $83.9 million in combined potential value, primarily through a $25 million Region 6 Small Business IDIQ (awarded February 2024) spanning Kansas City and St. Louis, Missouri, and the full states of Iowa, Nebraska, and Kansas. The Air National Guard issued 6 awards worth $77.5 million combined, and the Army Corps of Engineers contributed $54 million across eighteen awards. Top five customers represent 67% of combined potential value, reflecting significant concentration in civilian agricultural research and federal facility management.

Firelake holds eight active IDVs with ceilings ranging from $4.5 million to $38 million. The $31.1 million single-award NBAF Job Order Contract (USDA ARS Plains Area, awarded November 2024, total small business set-aside) anchors specialized biocontainment infrastructure work through 2029. A $38 million multiple-award MATOC with the Air National Guard (awarded May 2025 and August 2024, total small business set-aside) funds Nebraska National Guard facility maintenance and construction across 2029. A $25 million GSA Region 6 Small Business IDIQ supports construction services across five Midwestern states. A $4.5 million 8(a) sole source IDIQ with ENDIST Tulsa (awarded December 2024) provides Army Corps of Engineers construction and facility services. Four single-award USDA ARS contracts—one each valued at $5.48 million (fire protection south), $5.48 million (fire protection north), $4.88 million (demolition and abatement), and $4.55 million (general construction at Lubbock)—create streamlined task order vehicles for specialized services across regions. The top five parent vehicles account for 125 task orders and $49.7 million in combined potential value.

Activity has remained stable across 2022–2025, ranging from 38 to 58 awards per year; 2026 shows early-stage data with seven awards. Twenty-seven awards (combined potential value $45.9 million) reach completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete risk concentrated in USDA ARS and GSA relationships. SCI-reportable invoicing (service contracts above the $150,000 threshold) totaled $34 million across FY2022–FY2024: $6.3 million in FY2022, $11.7 million in FY2023, and $16 million in FY2024, reflecting year-over-year growth. On federal services contracts captured in SCI, FTE delivery scaled from 20.3 in FY2022 to 18.7 in FY2024, with median government-paid hourly rates around $749.50/hr and senior labor pricing reaching $1,911.76/hr in the 90th percentile. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed an average of 13% of total contractor hours, with thirty named subs identified across the portfolio—indicating Firelake builds predominantly in-house delivery teams while engaging specialized subs for discrete MEP and security system work.

Firelake operates as a prime contractor in 99% of recent awards; six sub-awards reflect engagement with Mill Creek LLC, Mill Creek Firelake JV LLC, and Lockwood Hills Federal LLC on access control, project management, and cyber security facility support. The vendor competes across full-and-open and set-aside channels with particular strength in total small business set-asides (49% of IDVs carry this designation) and 8(a) awards (multiple definitive contracts under 8(a) sole source or competitive 8(a)). Geographic concentration centers on the central United States—Kansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Texas, Colorado, and New Mexico—with secondary activity in Missouri and Michigan, aligning with USDA ARS research facility footprints and Army installation clusters.
