2dlt Jarrod Brunkow

2dlt Jarrod Brunkow serves as a 190th Combat Engineer with the W7M9 USPFO Activity KS ARNG, a unit under the Department of the Army responsible for sustaining military infrastructure readiness. In this role, he supports the planning, acquisition, and oversight of construction and facility sustainment projects critical to training and operational unit readiness. His responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions for commercial and institutional building construction, ensuring compliance with federal contracting regulations and Army engineering standards. He works closely with project managers, engineers, and contracting specialists to translate operational requirements into solicitation packages that deliver durable, mission-critical facilities. Brunkow collaborates with a diverse network of contractors specializing in military construction, including general contractors, design-build firms, and specialty subcontractors in structural, mechanical, and electrical systems. While no single vendor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages with firms capable of meeting stringent DoD construction standards, including those with experience in federal facility upgrades and rapid-response infrastructure projects. His working relationships emphasize performance-based outcomes, strict adherence to safety protocols, and timely delivery under dynamic operational constraints. He maintains a 100% Total Small Business Set-Aside preference under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a robust commitment to socioeconomic contracting. All of his acquisitions are reserved exclusively for small businesses, prioritizing participation from 8(a), HUBZone, and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs) to foster local economic resilience and enhance contractor diversity. His contracting patterns reflect a deliberate strategy to expand small business capacity within the military construction sector. Brunkow’s procurement focus is exclusively centered on NAICS 236220 — Commercial and Institutional Building Construction. He procures turnkey construction services for barracks, training centers, maintenance facilities, and administrative buildings, with an emphasis on code-compliant, energy-efficient designs. His technical expertise lies in interpreting military construction specifications, managing construction documents, and ensuring alignment with Army Technical Manuals and Unified Facilities Criteria.
