Aaron M Koumaras

Aaron Koumaras serves as a Contract Specialist with NAVFACSYSCOM Mid-Atlantic, responsible for managing the full lifecycle of construction, engineering, and facility support acquisitions across Navy and Marine Corps installations in the Mid-Atlantic region. He plays a critical role in executing mission-critical infrastructure projects that sustain operational readiness, from planning and solicitation through contract award and administration. His portfolio primarily encompasses design-build, construction, and professional services contracts aligned with the Department of the Navy’s infrastructure modernization and base sustainment priorities, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and environmental stewardship standards. Koumaras maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including Ryan Construction Co. Inc., Weeks-Cashman JV, Appledore Marine - CH2M JV, W.M. Jordan Company, Inc., and McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with proven expertise in complex naval facility projects, including marine construction, mechanical systems integration, and large-scale site development. His procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting, risk mitigation, and contractor accountability to ensure delivery of resilient, mission-ready infrastructure. His contracting patterns demonstrate a strong commitment to small business participation, with over 42% of awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, and a secondary focus on HUBZone set-asides. While the majority of acquisitions are unrestricted, his consistent use of socioeconomic set-asides underscores a deliberate strategy to foster competition and expand opportunities for small, disadvantaged, and community-based firms within the defense construction sector. Koumaras specializes in procurements governed by NAICS codes 541330 (Engineering Services), 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), and 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing), reflecting deep technical expertise in naval facility systems, HVAC infrastructure, and marine construction. His work supports the modernization of aging shore installations through integrated design-build solutions, precision mechanical systems, and shipyard support services critical to fleet readiness.
