The Columbia County Chamber of Commerce proudly announces SOFtact Solutions as the 2025 Patriot Award recipient. The Chamber presented the honor to SOFtact Wednesday, June 18, during its annual Military Appreciation Executive Luncheon presented by Piedmont Augusta. The award, presented by Southeastern Residential, honors businesses and individuals that demonstrate exceptional support for military personnel, veterans, and their families. 

“SOFtact Solutions truly embodies the values of the Patriot Award,” said Russell Lahodny, President & CEO of the Columbia County Chamber. “Their investment in the military community makes a lasting impact, both in the workplace and throughout our region.” 

A service-disabled veteran-owned small business, SOFtact Solutions (STS) provides cutting-edge technology and strategic support to the Department of Defense and federal agencies. With more than half of its workforce made up of veterans and military family members, STS is committed to hiring, mentorship, and career transition services for those who serve. 

The Columbia County Chamber of Commerce is a member-driven organization dedicated to advancing economic growth, advocating for business, and strengthening the community. That mission is especially vital in the Greater Augusta Region where Fort Gordon has a $7.5 billion impact on the CSRA, with $2.4 billion annually directly supporting businesses across retail, real estate, banking, and beyond.
