About the firm

Bodwe Group is the Professional Services Group of Mno-Bmadsen, the investment enterprise and a wholly owned instrumentality of the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi. Headquartered in Dowagiac, Michigan, Bodwe integrates expertise across architecture, engineering, construction, and facility management to deliver holistic, end-to-end solutions across the natural and built environment lifecycle. Bodwe Group operates three service branches: Buildings Services (architecture, interior design, MEP engineering, planning, and site development for Indigenous, federal, and community clients); Infrastructure Services (civil engineering, environmental resources, water resources, transportation, and bridges and highways); and Federal Support Services (design and construction, project and program management, information technology, and facilities management for federal agencies). Bodwe's sovereign status as a tribally owned entity provides a unique advantage in the federal small business set-aside market.
