Sergents Mechanical Systems Inc.

Sergents Mechanical Systems Inc., doing business as Sergent Construction Services, is a Santa Paula, California–based Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and SBA-certified HUBZone firm that delivers construction, mechanical systems, and facility infrastructure services to federal agencies exclusively as a prime contractor, with a $9.51 billion combined potential value across 487 federal awards.

The company's capability portfolio centers on HVAC system replacement and installation, roofing, mechanical equipment upgrades, facility repairs and alterations, and infrastructure modernization at federal installations. Representative work spans chiller replacement at FAA Air Route Traffic Control Centers (ARTCC) — including a $5.8 million ZAB ARTCC chiller replacement at Albuquerque awarded in September 2026, a $4.3 million Houston ARTCC chiller replacement from September 2025, and similar projects at Los Angeles and Salt Lake City ATCCs — roof and HVAC upgrades at VA medical centers, including a $17.9 million roof and HVAC replacement at Alexandria VA Health Care System in Louisiana and a $22.9 million steam boiler replacement at VA Northern Arizona Healthcare System, and emergency response work at Coast Guard facilities, such as fuel tank replacement and drainage system installation.

Customer concentration strongly favors the FAA and the Veterans Affairs system by dollar volume, with the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Headquarters commanding $4.02 billion in combined potential value across nine awards and the FAA Southwestern Region adding $2.01 billion across six awards — together representing the core of the vendor's pipeline. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 holds the third-largest single-customer position at $761.7 million across 13 awards, while VISN 19 contributes $505.4 million across five awards. By award count, the Department of the Navy leads with 194 awards ($40 million combined potential value) and the Coast Guard follows with 47 awards ($336.7 million), but both are dwarfed by FAA and VA dollar exposure. The top five customers account for 82% of combined potential value across all awards.

Sergents Mechanical Systems holds a substantial vehicle footprint anchoring its pipeline. The company seats on nine FAA Basic Ordering Agreements with ceilings of $999,999,999 each, spanning the Small and Medium Central, Western, Eastern, and Southern service areas (awarded February 8 and July 5, 2023), with orders running through February 7, 2033 and July 2, 2033 respectively. On the VA side, the vendor holds a $600 million SDVOSB-set-aside Multiple Award Task Order Contract with VISN 22 running through June 24, 2029, a $500 million Design Build MATOC with VISN 19 through May 24, 2027, and a $250 million Total Small Business MATOC with the Department of Interior Fish and Wildlife Service for alteration and repair work through June 30, 2027. Naval Facilities Engineering Command vehicles include a $200 million Heating, Ventilation, and Air-Conditioning System Projects NAVFAC Southwest MACC (awarded April 24, 2025, through April 23, 2027) and a $99 million SDVOSB-set-aside MATOC covering Yuma and El Centro Areas of Responsibility (September 14, 2023–September 13, 2028). The Coast Guard RMACC 2019 vehicle has generated 20 task orders worth $18.9 million combined potential value. Across these vehicles, task order values range from obligated minimum guarantees ($1,000–$5,000) to major projects exceeding $20 million.

Activity over the past five years shows a rise from 11 awards in 2022 to a peak of 17 in 2023, followed by a moderation to 8 awards in 2026 year-to-date through September 22. Eleven awards carrying a combined potential value of $41.6 million reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete exposure and opportunity for competitors.

SCI-reported invoicing across federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold totals $73.3 million over fiscal years 2022–2025, reflecting steady activity: $15.1 million in FY2022, $17.8 million in FY2023, $19.8 million in FY2024, and $20.7 million in FY2025. The company's SCI-reported federal services workforce ran between 13.2 and 23.4 FTEs across these fiscal years, declining from a peak of 23.4 FTEs in FY2023 to 13.2 FTEs in FY2025. On federal services contracts captured in SCI, government-paid rates ranged from a 10th percentile of $183.08 per hour to a median of $458.07 per hour and a 90th percentile of $2,521.52 per hour, reflecting a mix of laborer, technical, and engineering-level work. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed an average of 5% of total contractor hours, with 18 named subcontractors appearing across the contract footprint; the vendor self-performs the substantial majority of all federal construction and mechanical work.

The company's set-aside posture blends SDVOSB and HUBZone set-asides with full-and-open competition. Recent awards designate SDVOSB set-asides for VA and Coast Guard work, HUBZone set-asides for FAA and NAVFAC contracts, and sole-source SDVOSB awards for specialized FAA and Coast Guard projects, alongside full-and-open FAA BOA delivery orders and Naval Air Systems Command work. NAICS concentration centers on Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (135 awards), Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors (36 awards), and Industrial Building Construction (28 awards), with PSC concentration in facility maintenance, repair, alteration, and hospital infrastructure.
