Daniel Jernigan

Daniel Jernigan serves as a key procurement professional within the W076 Endist Tulsa office under the Department of the Army, responsible for managing complex construction and engineering contracts that sustain and modernize military infrastructure. His role centers on executing acquisitions for civil engineering, facility operations, and environmental compliance projects across Army installations, ensuring alignment with federal construction standards and regulatory requirements. He routinely handles fixed-price and cost-reimbursement contracts under the FAR, with a focus on heavy civil construction, institutional building, and related engineering services to support both operational readiness and long-term asset sustainability. Jernigan maintains consistent working relationships with established prime contractors including BL Harbert International, Alberici Constructors, MCMillen, Inc., and McKenzie Construction & Site Development, often leveraging their expertise in large-scale infrastructure delivery. His procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and integrated project delivery models, fostering long-term partnerships with vendors capable of executing multi-year, multi-phase projects involving site development, water and sewer systems, and facility upgrades. These relationships reflect a preference for contractors with proven track records in military and federal construction environments. His contracting portfolio demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with approximately two-thirds of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize opportunities for small businesses, particularly those certified under general small business programs, aligning with Army goals for equitable economic participation. While no set-asides are used for the remaining third, all acquisitions adhere to socioeconomic compliance requirements. Jernigan’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction), supplemented by engineering services under 541330. He routinely procures services related to facility maintenance, environmental remediation, stormwater management, and infrastructure modernization, demonstrating deep technical expertise in federal construction standards, environmental regulations, and integrated project planning.
