About Southside Electric Cooperative
Southside Electric Cooperative, a tax-exempt non-profit utility cooperative based in Crewe, Virginia, delivers right-of-way clearing, vegetation management, utility pole replacement, hazard tree removal, and emergency electrical grid restoration services to federal and state government agencies, predominantly as a subrecipient under Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) disaster-assistance grants and as a prime contractor on direct federal and state military facility maintenance work. The cooperative competes in full-and-open procurements with no set-aside designations across its federal footprint.
Southside Electric's federal contract work centers on the Virginia Army National Guard, where it holds three contracts totaling $1.09 million in combined potential value. The largest is a $607.6 thousand firm fixed-price purchase order awarded October 24, 2025, for right-of-way clearing and vegetation management at Fort Pickett in Blackstone, Virginia, extending through October 2030. A $467.7 thousand definitive contract from September 2023 through March 2025 covers utility pole replacement, right-of-way clearance, and hazard tree removal at Fort Barfoot in Blackstone, with Lost Time Control West, Inc. and The Townsend Corporation as subcontractors. A $15 thousand emergency repair purchase order from August 2024 addressed electrical grid damage from Tropical Depression Debby. The General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 3 awarded three additional contracts totaling $2.7 million in potential value, bringing the prime contract total to approximately $3.8 million across six distinct awards since 2023.
Southside Electric's federal footprint is dominated by FEMA grant subrecipient work. The cooperative appears as a sub-recipient on 25 federal grant awards from the Virginia Department of Emergency Management, which administers FEMA Public Assistance financial assistance. Recent FEMA-funded sub-awards, all dated in 2026 and 2025, fund electrical grid restoration work across nine Virginia localities — Lunenburg, Nottoway, Charlotte, Bedford, Campbell, Powhatan, Pittsylvania, Prince Edward, Amelia, Appomattox, and Cumberland — with multiple awards per locality carrying designations for both completed work and work in progress. These FEMA sub-awards represent $33.6 million in combined obligated dollars against $3.9 million in combined potential value, indicating substantial ongoing disaster-recovery work since 2021. The cooperative received one award for emergency protective measures under FEMA in 2021 and has managed FEMA grant funds continuously since that date, positioning it as a primary implementation partner for electrical infrastructure recovery in its region.
Southside Electric operates across electric power distribution and electrical construction NAICS categories, with the vendor's expertise rooted in rural utility cooperative infrastructure maintenance and regional emergency response capacity rather than federal contract competitiveness or scale.
