MK Engineers, LTD.

MK Engineers, LTD., a minority-owned, Asian-Pacific American small business headquartered in Mililani, Hawaii, delivers architect-engineer and electrical engineering design services to Department of Defense installations as a prime contractor on 92% of its federal awards, competing predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides and full-and-open designations on single-award and multiple-award indefinite delivery contracts.

MK Engineers was founded in 1972 and has built a specialized practice around electrical infrastructure modernization, power system resilience, and technical facility design for military installations across Hawaii and the Pacific region. The vendor's concrete capability set spans electrical engineering design, power infrastructure assessments, construction administration, design-bid-build package development, and architect-engineer services for facility upgrades. Recent prime work includes a $730 thousand task order from Naval Facilities Engineering Command for architect-engineer services supporting the Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam Power Plant Enhanced Use Lease project (awarded September 24, 2025, completing December 31, 2028), a $621 thousand delivery order from Navy Installations Command for replacement of Substation M-10B at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam (awarded January 27, 2026, designated Total Small Business set-aside, completing December 17, 2026), a $609 thousand architect-engineer delivery order for switchgear retrofit design at Pacific Missile Range Facility in Barking Sands, Hawaii (awarded September 30, 2024), and a $933 thousand task order from Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Honolulu for the Marine Corps Hawaii Electric Vehicle Roadmap Study including expansion to additional locations (awarded September 25, 2023). The vendor also performs construction-phase electrical engineering services as a subcontractor to HDR Engineering, Inc., on multiple water, power, and facility modernization projects across Hawaii and overseas installations.

MK Engineers' customer concentration sits heavily with Navy technical commands. Naval Facilities Engineering Command anchors the footprint at 43 awards worth $42.9 million in combined potential value; Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Honolulu represents 47 awards valued at $32 million; Navy Installations Command brings 26 awards totaling $10.1 million; and the Marine Corps accounts for 8 awards worth $3.2 million. Together, these four customers represent 88% of combined potential value across the vendor's portfolio. The Navy's Naval Facilities Engineering Command and Army Corps rank as top customers by both award count and dollar value, indicating both volume and scale in the relationship.

MK Engineers holds a $15 million single-award IDIQ with Naval Facilities Engineering Command (awarded September 22, 2022, designated Total Small Business set-aside, completing September 21, 2027) for architect-engineer services across electrical engineering and related infrastructure projects at military facilities throughout Hawaii and the Pacific region. Under this vehicle alone, the vendor has issued task orders totaling over $4.6 million across representative work including power plant enhanced use lease support, switchgear retrofits, electrical circuit replacements, pump station upgrades, communications facility installations, and RF shielding assessments. The vendor also holds multiple-award IDIQ positions with Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Honolulu ($9.9 million small-business set-aside vehicle) and participates in additional NAVFAC civil-projects IDIQs. Top parent vehicles by task-order volume include IDIQ N6247816D5026 (26 task orders, $11.7 million), IDIQ N6247822D5039 (14 task orders, $5.7 million), IDIQ N6247813D5020 (15 task orders, $4.2 million), IDIQ W9128A06D0014 (16 task orders, $2.7 million), and IDIQ DACA8303D0020 (19 task orders, $830 thousand).

In the next twenty-four months, 14 awards with combined potential value of $7.2 million face ultimate completion dates and represent recompete exposure. As a subcontractor, MK Engineers works predominantly under HDR Engineering, Inc., delivering electrical design and engineering services across water infrastructure, facility modernization, and power system projects at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Camp Smith, Tripler Army Medical Center, Fort Shafter, Guam, Okinawa, and Japan. The vendor also subcontracts to HDR Wtna JV and Frye Tile & Exterior Coating, Inc. on smaller civil and airfield lighting initiatives. MK Engineers' award category concentration centers on 146 engineer-services awards and 23 architect-services awards, with PSC coding heavily weighted to general architect-engineer categories (108 awards) and electrical systems design (12 awards), reflecting a practice built on specialized infrastructure design for defense customers in geographic proximity to Hawaii.
