From Design to Delivery.

WHO WE ARE

We built this company to be the contractor we'd want to hire.

Since 2004, Cahoon & Associates has installed and maintained security, life safety, telecom, and low-voltage systems for federal agencies, local governments, and commercial clients, including hyperscale computing facilities. We're an SBA-certified, service-disabled veteran-owned business, and we run every job with the discipline that comes from service: plan it, own it, finish it.

When you hire us, you get one team and one point of contact from the first site walk to final commissioning. No handoffs. No finger-pointing. Just the job, done right.

*Samuel A. Cahoon, President / CEO: 35+ years of program management at the largest defense contractors in the world.
Sam J. Cahoon, VP Business Operations: 20+ years in security and infrastructure.

NEW CAPABILITY

C&A · Prime Management

We own the customer relationship, the schedule, compliance, and delivery.

Equipment Setting, Rigging & Millwright Services

Generators, switchgear, chillers, transformers: the heavy, expensive equipment hyperscale computing centers and critical facilities can't run without. We bring the right crew to receive it, rig it, move it through the building, and set it exactly where it belongs, safely and right the first time. C&A leads as the SDVOSB prime, so you have one line of communication the whole way.

Technical Coordination

Our team partner works alongside us on sequencing, site logistics, and your team's questions.

Field Execution

Certified rigging crews and equipment doing the hands-on moving and setting.
