Amy Lord

Amy Lord serves as a key procurement lead within the W072 Endist Louisville under the Department of the Army, responsible for managing civil engineering and infrastructure acquisition programs critical to military installation readiness. She oversees the planning, solicitation, and award of contracts for the construction, renovation, and modernization of military facilities—including barracks, training ranges, utilities, and energy systems—ensuring alignment with Army sustainability and resilience goals. Her work directly supports the agency’s mission to maintain operational infrastructure across the continental United States through timely, compliant, and performance-based contracting practices. Lord maintains long-standing relationships with a core group of experienced general contractors, including Thalle-Bauer LLC, HARPER CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, INC., MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, J. E. DUNN CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, and BL HARBERT INTERNATIONAL LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established firms with proven expertise in military construction, site development, and complex civil works. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance metrics, schedule adherence, and quality control, fostering collaborative, high-reliability vendor relationships built on consistent delivery and regulatory compliance. Lord’s procurement portfolio is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on maximizing contractor capability and technical capacity rather than socioeconomic set-asides, prioritizing mission-critical outcomes over socioeconomic preferences. While small business participation is not formally targeted, her contracting decisions remain fully compliant with federal acquisition regulations and emphasize value-driven outcomes. Her primary procurement focus is NAICS 531190—Lessors of Other Real Estate Property—indicating a strong emphasis on real property leasing, facility management, and infrastructure support services tied to military installations. This specialization underscores her expertise in acquiring real estate-related services that enable mission continuity, including land use agreements, utility infrastructure leases, and facility operational support contracts essential to sustained Army readiness.
