About Montana Dakota Utilities Co

Montana Dakota Utilities Co, doing business as MDU Utilities Group, operates as a subsidiary of MDU Resources Group, Inc. and delivers electric utility service, natural gas delivery, energy management services, and facility infrastructure support to federal agencies as a prime contractor (93% of recent awards), competing under full-and-open procurement without set-aside designation. The company is headquartered in Bismarck, North Dakota, with a for-profit corporate structure and no federal contract vehicle holdings of its own.

Montana Dakota Utilities Co's federal work concentrates on utility infrastructure for rural and tribal facilities. The vendor holds a single-award indefinite-delivery contract with the Department of the Interior's Energy Division for electric services, natural gas, energy management, and related services across Montana, Idaho, and Washington, with a $50 million ceiling and a 10-year term running through February 3, 2036. This IDC anchors 96% of the vendor's combined potential value ($50 million of $52 million across all awards). Recent delivery orders under this IDC include a $5,000 firm fixed-price order from the Department of the Interior Rocky Mountain Region for electric utility service at Fort Peck Agency Irrigation in Poplar, Montana (ultimate completion April 30, 2027), and a $3,600 order from the Bureau of Reclamation for electric service at the Dickinson, North Dakota facility (ultimate completion February 29, 2036). Outside the IDC, the vendor holds a $900,000 purchase order from the Indian Health Service for Federal Purchase Service Unit utility operations and maintenance at Poplar, Montana (ultimate completion September 30, 2030), an $85,000 order from IHS for Central Service Utility Metering Device services at Crow Agency, Montana (ultimate completion June 1, 2026), and a $78,985 purchase order from the Western Area Power Administration for hangar lease services supporting a Bell 407 helicopter at Bismarck (ultimate completion January 31, 2031, with four optional one-year renewals). The WAPA hangar lease was awarded as a single-source negotiated procurement under FAR 12.102(a) authority, with market research determining Montana Dakota Utilities Co as the sole source capable of meeting operational requirements.

Customer concentration by count spreads across ten federal agencies, but by potential value concentrates sharply on the Department of the Interior (through the Energy Division IDC and Rocky Mountain Region), which carries 96% of combined potential value. The Indian Health Service accounts for the second-largest concentration by award count (3 awards, $1.2 million combined potential value) and by dollars, with work centered on utility infrastructure at tribal health facilities in Montana. The Department of Veterans Affairs, Bureau of Indian Affairs Bureau of Indian Education, Fish and Wildlife Service, and Department of Energy round out the customer base. Activity has been sparse but recent — two awards in 2020, one in 2021, then a three-year gap, followed by three awards in 2025 and four in 2026 — with combined obligated dollars of $4.2 million (8% of the $52 million combined potential value), reflecting the early stages of the large IDC. Only one award ($5,000 from the Department of the Interior) faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. The vendor acts as a sub-recipient under the Energy Infrastructure Resilience Grant Program through the Montana Department of Environmental Quality for design, engineering, construction, and commissioning of the Poplar Transmission Line Rebuild project (award date September 2, 2025). The parent company, MDU Resources Group, Inc., holds its own federal contract awards but is not formally listed as a prime on Montana Dakota Utilities Co's active portfolio.
