Aaron Dugick

Aaron Dugick serves as the primary contracting lead for W071 Endist Omaha under the Department of the Army, overseeing the acquisition of critical infrastructure and support services essential to military readiness and nuclear deterrence operations. He manages a diverse portfolio of construction, engineering, and technical services contracts aimed at modernizing base facilities, utility corridors, and hardened infrastructure. His role is central to executing the agency’s mission of sustaining and enhancing the physical environments required for strategic defense operations, with a focus on mission-critical, high-integrity projects that demand strict compliance with defense standards and federal acquisition regulations. Dugick maintains consistent partnerships with a core group of contractors including JOHN BOWMAN, INC., PAF ELECTRICAL, INC., HENDRICKSON TRANSPORTATION LLC, PERINI MANAGEMENT SERVICES, INC., and WASHINGTON EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURING COMPANY, INC. These relationships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven capabilities in military-grade construction, electrical systems, heavy transport, and specialized equipment manufacturing. His procurement approach emphasizes reliability, technical compliance, and performance history, fostering long-term vendor collaboration on complex, multi-year projects requiring stringent quality control and security protocols. A strong advocate for socioeconomic contracting, Dugick prioritizes small business participation, with over 55% of his awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides and approximately one-third reserved for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses. His contracting patterns reflect a deliberate strategy to expand opportunities for disadvantaged and veteran-owned firms while maintaining mission-critical standards. This commitment aligns with Department of Defense mandates and supports broader national goals for inclusive defense contracting. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541990 (professional and technical services), 238160 (roofing contractors), and 237310 (highway and bridge construction), with additional activity in motor and generator manufacturing and industrial laundering. These categories underscore his expertise in integrated facility sustainment, where technical precision, durability, and operational continuity are paramount to mission success.
