Bridget Morehiser

Bridget Morehiser serves as a key procurement professional within the W07V Endist New Orleans office of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, overseeing the acquisition of large-scale civil works and heavy engineering projects critical to Gulf Coast infrastructure resilience. She manages the full lifecycle of contracts for flood risk reduction, coastal restoration, and water resource management systems, ensuring alignment with federal engineering standards and environmental compliance. Her acquisitions primarily involve complex construction and dredging operations requiring specialized hydraulic expertise, with a focus on delivering durable, mission-critical infrastructure in high-risk coastal environments. She maintains consistent, long-term relationships with top-tier contractors including WEEKS MARINE, INC., PRECISION CONSTRUCTION LLC, M.R. PITTMAN GROUP, L.L.C., MUDDY WATER DREDGING, LP, and RED BISON SERVICES, LLC—firms recognized for their proficiency in heavy civil construction, dredging, and marine infrastructure development. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven experience in navigating challenging Gulf Coast hydrology, permitting frameworks, and emergency response timelines. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, technical rigor, and contractor reliability over rapid turnover. Morehiser’s procurement portfolio reflects a strict focus on full and open competition, with 100% of awards issued without set-asides for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic programs. This reflects a mission-driven prioritization of technical capability and scale over socioeconomic preferences, aligning with the complexity and scale of civil works projects requiring specialized equipment and workforce expertise not commonly found in small business portfolios. Her primary procurement focus is centered on NAICS 237990—Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction—encompassing levee construction, channel stabilization, sediment management, and bulkhead installation. She specializes in acquiring services involving deep-dredging, hydraulic fill, cofferdam deployment, and erosion control systems, demonstrating deep domain knowledge in coastal engineering and federal water resources policy.
