Brittany Cristelli

Brittany Cristelli serves as a primary contracting professional within Navfacsyscom Mid-Atlantic, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to deliver resilient, mission-critical infrastructure across Navy and Marine Corps installations in the Mid-Atlantic region. She manages the full lifecycle of construction and engineering acquisitions, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing operational readiness through timely delivery of facilities and utilities. Her portfolio primarily encompasses commercial and institutional building construction, with significant emphasis on modernization, base sustainment, and civil engineering projects essential to maintaining combat-ready installations. Cristelli 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, INCORPORATED, and MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established firms with proven expertise in complex naval infrastructure delivery, often involving multi-disciplinary teams capable of integrating design, construction, and environmental compliance. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and contractor accountability across high-stakes, mission-critical projects. Her procurement strategy prioritizes open competition, with approximately 68% of awards issued without set-asides, reflecting a focus on maximizing value and technical capability. However, she actively supports socioeconomic goals, regularly awarding contracts under 8(a) competed and Total Small Business Set-Aside programs, with modest but consistent participation from HUBZone firms, demonstrating a balanced commitment to small business inclusion without compromising mission requirements. Cristelli’s technical focus centers on NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), which accounts for over half of her portfolio, alongside significant activity in heavy civil engineering (237990), water and sewer infrastructure (237110), and engineering services (541330). Her expertise spans facility modernization, utility system upgrades, and construction of mission-support buildings, requiring deep familiarity with DoD standards, environmental regulations, and integrated project delivery methods.
