Alice Jeffres

Alice Jeffres serves as a key procurement lead within the W071 Endist Kansas City office of the Department of the Army, overseeing the acquisition of civil engineering and facility support services critical to sustaining Army infrastructure. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of construction and maintenance contracts to ensure operational readiness across military installations, with a focus on building systems, utilities, and environmental compliance. She executes acquisitions under FAR Part 36 and coordinates with engineering and project management teams to align contracting strategies with mission-critical infrastructure priorities, ensuring timely delivery of services that support military housing, water systems, roadways, and facility modernization. Jeffres maintains long-standing partnerships with leading engineering and construction firms including HYDROGEOLOGIC, INC., BURNS & MCDONNELL ENGINEERING COMPANY, INC., and HGL-APTIM TECHNOLOGIES JV LLC, reflecting a preference for established contractors with proven technical capabilities in military-grade infrastructure. Her procurement patterns emphasize performance-based contracting and integrated project delivery models, often utilizing design-build and construction manager-at-risk structures to enhance efficiency and accountability. She frequently engages joint ventures and multidisciplinary teams capable of delivering complex, multi-trade facility upgrades under stringent DoD standards. While the majority of her acquisitions are unrestricted (77.1%), she consistently supports small business participation, with approximately 20.8% of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 and a smaller but meaningful portion reserved for women-owned small businesses. Her approach balances competitive open competition with targeted socioeconomic opportunities, demonstrating a measured commitment to broadening vendor diversity without compromising technical rigor. Her procurement focus is heavily concentrated in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), followed by engineering services (541330) and plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning (238220). She specializes in procuring integrated facility systems, including structural upgrades, HVAC retrofits, and civil works for military installations, requiring deep technical understanding of military construction codes, environmental regulations, and sustainable building practices.
