D orvin D. Leis Co. Inc. (DDL), returning to the Top 25 after a one-year hiatus, arrives at No. 11 in this year’s rank- ings. As Hawai‘i’s largest mechanical contractor, DDL earned $123,666,430 in 2022, a 26.3 percent decrease from the $167,993,678 the company earned in 2021. Last year, DDL was subcontracted on and completed landmark projects such as 1 Hotel Hanalei Bay, Ko‘ula, North Hawai‘i Community Hospital and Phase 2 at Kihei High School (since renamed Kūlanihāko‘i High School). The company also received high honors for its Island Palm Communities project, which won GCA of Hawai‘i’s Build Hawai‘i Award in 2022, which is presented to subcontractors in the $1-million-plus category. “We spent time building Fiscal Year 2023 backlog,” notes DDL President Stephen Leis, and implemented new project management soft- “Construction continues to be a major contributor to the Hawai‘i economy.” – Stephen Leis
ware company-wide. DDL also welcomed new Executive Vice President Michael St. Clair, previ- ously co-president at Pan-Pacific Mechanical. Ongoing 2023 projects and their sched- uled completion dates include Kaulana Mahina (2024), Discovery Land Co.’s Makena Golf & Beach Club (2024), The Park on Ke‘eaumoku (2025), Ulana Ward Village (2027) and the Kauai Beach Resort Energy Project (2023). In contrast to mainland construction, already hobbled by an expected U.S. recession, “construction continues to be a major contributor to the Hawai‘i economy,” Leis says, crediting Hawai‘i’s high hous- ing demand coupled with low available inventory. This year, Leis is also seeing large capital improvement projects pick back up, especially in high-end hotels, resorts and communities. “Although we continue to face inflationary impacts to material, equipment and supply chains, as well as post-pandemic residual manpower issues,” Leis says. “We remain optimistic that construction will remain strong in the near-term.” – Brett Alexander-Estes
