Cherokee General Contractors have been serving federal, state and local agencies since 1985. At Abossein Engineering, we have provided engineering services for Cherokee in conjunction with superbly qualified teams of subcontractors and architects.

Some of the more recent projects have included a U.S. Federal Court House for the General Services Administration. Abossein provided designs for the layout and power distribution of their upgraded chiller system. We were pleased to participate on a LEED Silver project for Cherokee, at the Navy Fire Training School at Whidbey Island, where Navy fire fighters learn to deal with aircraft combustion. Abossein had the opportunity to design the fire alarm system for the Naval Airport Control Tower, a system which is required to be active at all times, and not susceptible to power outages. And, one of our favorite collaborations was on the Naval Ocean Processing Facility, which monitors the Pacific Ocean for ship traffic by sound alone. Abossein helped design the power back up system, with two brand new 1 megawatt generators.

As a point of Pride, Cherokee’s parent company, Doyon has been adding staff at all levels, drawing from their owner community where possible.

Cherokee General has been a member of the Doyon Government Group since 2008. The Doyon Group is one of the largest native owned corporations in the U.S.. Rapidly The Doyon Group’s mission is to continually enhance its position as a financially strong, Native corporation, in order to promote the economic and social wellbeing of its shareholders, and future shareholders, to strengthen its Native way of life, and to protect and enhance its land and resources.

We cherish our growing relationship with Cherokee and Doyon, as we expand the scope of our involvement with more of their projects.
