Daniel Taliaferro

Daniel Taliaferro serves as a key procurement lead within the W7NF Uspfo Activity Miang 127, supporting the Department of the Army’s mission to sustain and modernize critical military infrastructure. Responsible for managing construction and facility-related acquisitions, he oversees contracts essential to airfield, utility, and building systems that underpin operational readiness. His portfolio centers on mission-critical civil works, including plumbing, electrical, roofing, and heavy highway construction, ensuring installations meet stringent military standards for safety, resilience, and environmental compliance. He plays a pivotal role in translating engineering requirements into actionable contracting strategies aligned with Army installation modernization priorities. Taliaferro maintains consistent partnerships with a broad base of qualified contractors specializing in facility infrastructure, particularly those with expertise in mechanical, electrical, and structural systems. While specific vendor names are not publicly disclosed, his procurement patterns reflect a preference for experienced firms capable of delivering complex, code-compliant work in operational military environments. He fosters collaborative relationships with contractors who demonstrate technical proficiency, timely performance, and adherence to federal construction standards under FAR and DFARS guidelines. A defining feature of his contracting approach is a 100% small business set-aside preference across all eligible acquisitions, reflecting a strong institutional commitment to socioeconomic programs. He consistently prioritizes small business participation under FAR 19.5, enabling opportunities for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, HUBZone, and other certified small businesses to compete for infrastructure contracts. This strategy reinforces the Army’s goal of fostering economic resilience while ensuring a robust, diverse contractor base. His technical focus is concentrated in NAICS 238220 (plumbing, heating, and HVAC), 237310 (highway and bridge construction), and 238210 (electrical contracting), with additional emphasis on roofing and building finishing. He specializes in procuring turnkey construction services that integrate utility upgrades, structural reinforcements, and compliance-driven renovations—ensuring military installations remain mission-ready and sustainably maintained.
