Staco Electric Construction Company

What Staco Electric Construction Company does

Staco Electric Construction Company is a privately held specialty electrical and data/communications contractor headquartered in Kansas City, Missouri, founded in 1971 and operating with 101-250 employees. The company delivers integrated electrical construction across six service lines: 24/7 Service/Repair/Maintenance (with cross-trained technicians and recurring maintenance contracts), core Electrical Construction for commercial and industrial facilities, Telecom/Technology/Systems (voice and data cabling networks), a Signage Division for commercial sign installation, Electrical Utilities (small cell networks, OPGW fiber, duct banks, traffic signals), and Pre-Construction Services (BIM, VDC, in-house prefabrication, design-build, estimating). Customers span commercial, industrial, healthcare, education, data center/mission-critical, government, and cold storage segments across the Midwest, with named enterprise logos including Americold, HCA Healthcare, Margaritaville Hotels & Resorts, Kansas City Chiefs, Mid-Continent Public Library, and Cboe Global Markets.

The business model is primarily project-based electrical contracting with quote-based pricing, supplemented by a 24/7 service department that generates recurring maintenance and inspection revenue. Technical differentiation rests on BIM/VDC planning, in-house prefabrication, LEED-certified sustainable construction practices, and Arc Flash Protection leadership per NFPA 70-E. Marketing and distribution are direct via the company website portfolio, social media presence on Facebook and LinkedIn, project bidding, and the staffed 24/7 service line.

In September 2025, Staco was acquired by Platform Ventures as a strategic platform in specialty construction services targeting demand from data centers, energy, manufacturing, and infrastructure modernization. The company continues to operate under the Staco Electric brand and remains headquartered at 11030 Hickman Mills Drive, Kansas City, MO.
