Barbara T. Spruill

Barbara T. Spruill serves as a Contract Specialist within NAVFACSYSCOM Mid-Atlantic, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical procurement actions for naval and marine corps infrastructure projects across the Mid-Atlantic region. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of construction, engineering, and specialized equipment contracts, she ensures compliance with FAR regulations while advancing the agency’s objectives of modernizing aging facilities and sustaining operational readiness. Her acquisitions primarily support civil engineering, facility modernization, and utility system upgrades, with a focus on delivering resilient, mission-enabling infrastructure through competitive and compliant contracting practices. Spruill maintains longstanding relationships with key 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 pattern of engaging established prime contractors with proven expertise in heavy civil construction, marine infrastructure, and complex site development. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, risk mitigation, and contractor accountability, fostering reliable delivery of high-stakes projects under stringent military standards. While the majority of her acquisitions—90.9%—are conducted without set-asides, she consistently allocates 9.1% to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a measured but intentional commitment to small business participation. Her socioeconomic contracting patterns prioritize broad competition while ensuring small businesses have equitable access to opportunities aligned with their capabilities in construction and technical services. Her procurement focus is heavily concentrated in NAICS 333923 (Overhead Traveling Crane, Hoist, and Monorail System Manufacturing), reflecting specialized needs for material handling systems in naval facilities. She also regularly procures engineering, architectural, and accounting services, indicating a multidisciplinary approach to infrastructure lifecycle support. Spruill’s technical domain expertise spans heavy construction, facility systems integration, and project delivery models that align with Navy standards for durability, safety, and long-term sustainment.
