Amy S. Rivers

Amy S. Rivers serves as a Contract Specialist with the W074 Endist Savannah under the Department of the Army, where she manages the acquisition lifecycle for critical civil engineering and infrastructure modernization projects. Her role centers on ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing the agency’s mission to sustain and upgrade military facilities, utilities, and environmental systems essential to operational readiness. She routinely handles complex construction and facilities support contracts under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, coordinating with engineers, project managers, and environmental specialists to deliver mission-critical infrastructure solutions across Army installations. Rivers maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced joint ventures and specialty contractors, including BLAIR REMY MERRICK MP JOINT VENTURE, LLC, GURRI MATUTE CROMWELL JV LLC, and GMHILL BAKER JV, LLC, all of which possess deep expertise in commercial and institutional construction. She also frequently engages SHERLOCK, SMITH & ADAMS INC. and ZAPATA GROUP, INC. for design-build and facilities support services. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting, leveraging long-standing vendor partnerships to ensure technical competency, schedule reliability, and quality assurance on high-stakes infrastructure initiatives. While the majority of her acquisitions are open to full and open competition, Rivers demonstrates a meaningful commitment to small business participation, with approximately 30% of awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and a smaller but consistent portion reserved for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses. Her socioeconomic contracting strategy reflects a balanced emphasis on competition and inclusion, aligning with Army goals to foster diverse supplier networks. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), with significant activity in 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction). She specializes in acquiring building renovations, utility upgrades, and site remediation services, demonstrating technical fluency in civil engineering standards, environmental compliance protocols, and facility lifecycle management.
