Knight Construction & Supply, Inc. (KCS) has been a cornerstone in the heavy industrial and hydroelectric construction sector since its inception in 1968. Founded by Jim and Fern Knight in Deer Park, WA, the company began its journey with the construction of pole buildings and commercial structures. Over the decades, KCS has evolved into a prominent player in the industry, tackling multimillion-dollar projects for government agencies and private enterprises, particularly around the Missouri, Snake, and Columbia River Dams. Everything changed in 1983 when Jim bonded his first federal project, clearing portions of the Alaska/Canadian border, marking the company's foray into larger and more complex undertakings.
KCS's experience spans numerous sectors, including hydroelectric services, mine maintenance, plant maintenance, fire protection, crane modernization, and specialty fabrication. Their portfolio demonstrates a robust completion record, having successfully executed hundreds of projects without incurring liquidated damages or litigation issues—a testament to their commitment to quality and performance. At the heart of KCS's operations is an unwavering emphasis on safety and efficiency. Employing a skilled workforce with expertise across various specialties, KCS ensures all projects are completed on time, within budget, and to the highest standards of quality.
The Knight family has played an integral role in the company’s success, with Jim’s sons taking on leadership roles and maintaining the company's family-owned values. Now under the stewardship of Doug and Dave Knight, KCS continues to prioritize building solid relationships with clients while providing a safe work environment for its employees. The mission of KCS echoes its commitment to long-term partnerships, as they strive to deliver unmatched craftsmanship and innovative solutions tailored to the unique needs of every project.
