Betty A Staab

Betty A. Staab serves as a Contract Specialist with NAVFACSYSCOM Mid-Atlantic, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical construction and infrastructure acquisitions for Navy and Marine Corps installations across the Mid-Atlantic region. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions—from solicitation through award and administration—she ensures compliance with FAR and DOD regulations while aligning contract outcomes with operational readiness goals. Her portfolio primarily encompasses specialty trade construction, civil engineering, and utility system modernization projects essential to sustaining combat-ready bases and upgrading aging facilities. Staab maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced 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 preference for established firms with proven capabilities in complex, multi-trade construction environments. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous technical evaluation, and collaborative contract management to ensure timely delivery of high-quality infrastructure. Her procurement strategy demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly 40% of her awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, and an additional 7.7% allocated to HUBZone firms. While over half of her contracts remain open to all competitors, her deliberate use of socioeconomic set-asides underscores a balanced approach to fostering competition and expanding opportunities for qualified small businesses in the federal construction market. Staab’s technical focus centers on NAICS 238210 (Electrical Contractors), 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), and 238990 (Other Specialty Trade Contractors), reflecting deep expertise in building systems integration, MEP infrastructure, and facility modernization. She routinely procures services related to utility upgrades, structural rehabilitation, and site development, demonstrating specialized knowledge in the technical demands of military infrastructure projects.
