Christopher M. Olsen

Christopher M. Olsen serves as a key procurement professional within Navfacsyscom Northwest, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to deliver resilient, mission-critical infrastructure across the Pacific Northwest. He manages the acquisition lifecycle for facility construction and environmental services essential to naval readiness, with a focus on shipyard modernization, utilities upgrades, and environmental compliance. His portfolio includes full-spectrum contracting for design-build, construction management, and solid waste management services, ensuring alignment with federal environmental standards and naval operational requirements. Olsen plays a central role in translating strategic infrastructure priorities into executable contract actions that maintain compliance, sustainability, and operational continuity. Olsen maintains consistent working relationships with core contractors including CONTRACK WATTS INC and ABSHER CONSTRUCTION CO, both of which provide specialized construction and facility support services. He also routinely engages ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT SERVICES, LLC for environmental compliance and remediation work. These partnerships reflect a preference for established, technically proficient vendors with proven experience in naval infrastructure environments. His contracting patterns emphasize reliability, regulatory adherence, and performance-based outcomes, fostering long-term vendor collaboration rather than transactional engagements. Olsen’s procurement activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on technical capability and mission-critical delivery over socioeconomic classifications, though small business participation is not excluded—only not prioritized through targeted set-asides. His approach prioritizes competition based on merit, past performance, and technical qualification, consistent with the Navy’s need for rapid, high-quality execution in complex operational settings. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 562111 (Solid Waste Collection) and 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), indicating deep expertise in facility maintenance, waste infrastructure, and institutional construction for naval bases and shipyards. He procures services ranging from hazardous material handling and landfill operations to structural renovations and utility system upgrades, demonstrating specialized knowledge in defense-related construction and environmental compliance frameworks.
