Kian International Inc.

Kian International Inc., a minority-owned, SBA 8(a) certified small disadvantaged business headquartered in Clearwater, Florida, operates exclusively as a prime contractor delivering facility construction, maintenance, repair, and environmental remediation services to federal civilian agencies through sole-source and competitive 8(a) set-asides. The company competes almost entirely under 8(a) designations, with all forty recent awards (100% prime, zero sub awards) set aside or reserved for small business.

Kian International's capability portfolio centers on infrastructure sustainment and facility systems work. The concrete scope spans roof replacements (slate and standard), HVAC installations and upgrades, plumbing system upgrades and repairs, electrical work including lighting and panel installations, building envelope repairs (porticos, siding, windows, gutters, downspouts), interior renovations (bathrooms, kitchens, basements, flooring), and facility-systems critical repairs (backflow preventers, sewage lift stations, elevator upgrades). Environmental remediation services—site investigations, remedial investigations, Phase II evaluations, and hazardous materials surveys—represent the secondary capability line. Representative prime work includes a $4.5 million roof replacement at FEMA's National Emergency Training Center (Building E and F), completed under sole-source 8(a) with Ruff Roofers as primary roofing subcontractor; a $2.5 million Building E portico repair at the same FEMA campus; a $2.1 million campus-wide plumbing upgrade contract with FEMA; a $1.6 million temporary administration and trailer mobilization contract with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers at Lone Star Army Ammunition Plant in Texas; and a $1.1 million remedial investigation delivery order with the Air Force Civil Engineer Center covering Bergstrom and Eaker Air Force Bases.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted to FEMA's National Emergency Training Center in Emmitsburg, Maryland. Ninety percent of recent awards (36 of 40) flow from three agencies: the Federal Emergency Management Agency (31 awards total, $27.7 million combined potential value—the Preparedness Section accounts for five awards of that total), the Department of Agriculture Forest Service (two single-award IDIQ and BPA vehicles, $14 million combined ceiling), and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (two awards, $4.5 million). The Air Force Civil Engineer Center accounts for two awards ($1.7 million). FEMA's outsized share reflects Kian International's role as a preferred 8(a) vendor for facility maintenance and repair at a single federal campus; the two Forest Service vehicles (a $7 million IDIQ for Savannah River Site facility construction and maintenance, awarded February 2026, and a $7 million BPA for Allegheny National Forest environmental response through October 2029, awarded October 2024) diversify the customer base and represent recent strategic wins outside the FEMA monopoly.

Kian International holds two parent vehicles: a single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract with USDA Forest Service Region 8 (Southern Region) for the Savannah River Site facilities work, with a $7 million ceiling through February 2031, and a multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with USDA Forest Service Region 9 (Eastern Region) for Allegheny National Forest environmental response, also valued at $7 million through October 2029. Four task orders under IDC W9128F17D0053 (the Army Corps of Engineers contract vehicle) totaled $2.9 million in potential value across site investigations and remedial work.

Activity has grown from six awards in 2022 to ten in 2024; the 2025 and 2026 figures (two and three awards respectively) reflect recency bias in the source data snapshot rather than a decline. Seven awards carrying $11.5 million in combined potential value reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, representing Kian International's recompete cliff. The most recent award—a $14,805 gutter system installation at Coast Guard Air Station St. Petersburg, Florida (April 2026, completion June 2026)—exemplifies the vendor's core facility maintenance footprint; the FEMA and Forest Service IDIQ and BPA wins (February and October 2024 respectively) signal expansion into larger, multi-year vehicles and environmental services on civilian DoA contracts.

SCI-reported invoiced federal service-contract revenue reached $3.7 million in FY2024 across 1.5 FTEs (up from $3.2 million and 0.4 FTEs in FY2023), with no SCI-reportable activity in FY2022. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI-captured prime contracts ranged from a 10th percentile of $291.16/hr to a median of $568.51/hr and a 90th percentile of $1,825.90/hr, reflecting a mix of craft labor, technician, and professional-services pricing. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors accounted for an average 30% share of total contractor hours; Kian International named eleven subcontractors across the SCI record set, including Ruff Roofers (roofing) and Cenkner Engineering Associates (engineering support), indicating a teaming model that anchors delivery through named subs while maintaining control as prime.
