City-funded organization

Akela Contracting LLC is a construction contractor certified as a New York State and New York City Women Business Enterprise (WBE); its own site says it handles "new construction and repairs/restorations," including work on occupied and fully operational job sites and multi phase projects. All four of its registered NYC contracts since 2017 were awarded by competitive sealed bid: an active $9 million Department of Environmental Protection contract as of August 2026 for "LSLRPBX04: Lead Serv. Line Replacement Prog. Area I,J, Bronx," plus three completed Department of Design and Construction jobs in Queens: "School Safety Program 4 - Borough of Queens" ($4.6 million), "Reconstruction of 37th Road Plaza, Queens" ($4.4 million), and "Construction of Complex Pedestrian Ramps, Queens" ($3.4 million). In total the company has been awarded $21.4 million across those 4 contracts (paid to date $12.7 million), with no contracts on record awarded without a fresh competitive bid.
