Christopher A. Tew

Christopher Tew serves as a key procurement lead within the W2SD Fest NAU1 Europe (W912GB), a U.S. Army installation support unit under the Department of Defense. He is responsible for managing the acquisition of commercial and institutional construction services essential to sustaining and modernizing U.S. military infrastructure across Europe. His role ensures that facility upgrades, maintenance, and new construction projects align with force readiness objectives, supporting garrison operations and long-term mission capability. Tew primarily oversees full and open competitions under NAICS 236220, handling complex design-build and construction management contracts for barracks, administrative facilities, and utility infrastructure critical to Army operations in theater. Tew maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of established contractors, including AECOM International Inc., CMS Corporation, WSP Italia S.R.L., and Boh Environmental, L.L.C. These firms are selected for their technical expertise in military-grade construction, environmental compliance, and European regulatory alignment. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for repeat engagement with proven performers capable of delivering high-complexity, multi-disciplinary projects under strict operational timelines and security protocols. These partnerships are built on demonstrated reliability, past performance, and adherence to DoD construction standards. Tew’s procurement activity is exclusively conducted under full and open competition, with no set-asides designated for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic programs. This reflects a mission-driven prioritization of technical capability and rapid execution over socioeconomic preferences, consistent with the urgency and scale of European infrastructure requirements. While small business participation is not formally incentivized in his portfolio, all solicitations remain compliant with FAR Part 19 and are open to all qualified vendors. His technical focus is narrowly concentrated on NAICS 236220, Commercial and Institutional Building Construction, encompassing new builds, renovations, and infrastructure modernization for military housing, command centers, and support facilities. Tew’s expertise lies in managing contracts requiring integration of energy-efficient systems, seismic resilience, and NATO-standard engineering specifications, demonstrating deep familiarity with military construction codes and theater-specific environmental constraints.
