Anale Young

Anale Young serves as a key procurement professional within the DSC Contracting Services Division of the National Park Service, overseeing the acquisition of infrastructure modernization and preservation services critical to maintaining America’s national parks. Responsible for managing complex contracts for facility rehabilitation, utility system upgrades, and ecological site enhancements, Young ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing the agency’s mission to protect historic structures and resilient infrastructure in remote and sensitive environments. Their portfolio primarily includes professional services, construction, and specialized maintenance contracts requiring technical expertise in historic preservation and environmental compliance. Young maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of established contractors, including HDR Engineering Inc., Johnson, Mirmiran & Thompson, Inc., and McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, all of which provide multidisciplinary engineering, construction, and site development services. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with proven experience in federal historic preservation projects and ecologically sensitive construction. The contracting patterns demonstrate a reliance on repeat vendors with demonstrated performance in complex, mission-critical environments, often requiring specialized certifications and adherence to NPS design standards. A strong commitment to small business participation defines Young’s procurement strategy, with 79.2% of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate focus on empowering small, locally based, and socioeconomically disadvantaged firms, including those certified under HUBZone and SDVOSB programs, to contribute meaningfully to national park infrastructure projects. The consistent use of small business set-asides underscores a strategic effort to foster regional economic development and diversify the contractor base. The primary NAICS categories reflect a focus on technical consulting (541690), landscaping (561730), and specialized trades including electrical (238210) and HVAC (238220) contracting. Young’s expertise lies in procuring integrated services that support the restoration of historic buildings, sustainable utility systems, and visitor amenities—requiring deep knowledge of preservation standards, environmental regulations, and federal construction codes.
