Carolyn M Sulla

Carolyn M. Sulla serves as a Contract Specialist with NAVFACSYSCOM Mid-Atlantic, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical infrastructure acquisitions for Navy and Marine Corps installations across the Mid-Atlantic region. Responsible for the full lifecycle of contract actions—from solicitation and evaluation to award and administration—she ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while advancing the agency’s mission to sustain and modernize combat-ready facilities. Her portfolio primarily consists of construction, specialty trade, and building inspection services, with a strong emphasis on delivering resilient, code-compliant infrastructure that supports operational readiness and environmental compliance. Sulla 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 firms with proven expertise in complex civil works, marine construction, and facility maintenance. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, risk mitigation, and contractor accountability, fostering long-term collaborations grounded in reliability and technical proficiency. A staunch advocate for small business participation, Sulla directs 100% of her acquisitions toward total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, ensuring equitable access to federal opportunities for small, locally-based firms. Her socioeconomic contracting patterns reflect a deliberate strategy to cultivate a diverse vendor base, prioritizing small businesses without distinguishing among specific designations such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, thereby maximizing competition and community economic impact. Her technical focus centers on NAICS 238990 (All Other Specialty Trade Contractors) and 541350 (Building Inspection Services), encompassing structural repairs, electrical and plumbing trades, code compliance audits, and facility condition assessments. Sulla’s expertise lies in procuring specialized construction services that address aging infrastructure, ensuring installations meet current safety, sustainability, and mission requirements through precise technical specifications and rigorous oversight.
