Casey M Barber

Casey M. Barber serves as the primary procurement lead for W071 Endist Omaha under the Department of the Army, overseeing the acquisition of critical infrastructure and support services essential to military base readiness and strategic deterrence. Responsible for managing a diverse portfolio of construction, utility, and environmental support contracts, Barber ensures alignment with the agency’s mission to sustain and modernize hardened facilities, transportation corridors, and operational environments. Their work directly enables the Army’s nuclear deterrence posture and training infrastructure through timely, compliant, and mission-focused contracting actions. Barber maintains established relationships with key contractors including JOHN BOWMAN, INC., PAF ELECTRICAL, INC., HENDRICKSON TRANSPORTATION LLC, PERINI MANAGEMENT SERVICES, INC., and WASHINGTON EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURING COMPANY, INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, vertically integrated vendors capable of delivering complex civil works, electrical systems, heavy haul logistics, and specialized equipment. The contracting patterns indicate a reliance on proven performers with demonstrated capacity in military-grade construction and maintenance, often involving multi-year task order structures under indefinite-delivery vehicles. A strong commitment to small business participation defines Barber’s socioeconomic strategy, with 75% of acquisitions set aside for total small business under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate emphasis on fostering competition among small firms while maintaining operational reliability. While no other specific set-aside categories dominate, the consistent use of small business set-asides underscores a strategic alignment with DoD goals for economic resilience and contractor diversity. Barber’s procurement focus centers on NAICS 561730 (Landscaping Services), which accounts for over half of activity, alongside significant procurement in construction sand and gravel mining (212321), RV park and campground operations (721211), highway construction (237310), and septic tank services (562991). This blend reveals expertise in managing integrated base support systems—ranging from environmental landscaping and utility infrastructure to transportation and waste management—ensuring full-spectrum readiness across Army installations.
