Delcheia Turner

Delcheia Turner serves as the primary contracting lead for Navfacsyscom Southeast, overseeing the acquisition of mission-critical infrastructure projects that support naval readiness across the Southeastern U.S. and overseas operational sites. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of construction and utilities contracts, she ensures compliance with Department of the Navy standards while advancing strategic priorities in facility resilience and base operations support. Her portfolio centers on commercial and institutional building construction and water/sewer infrastructure, requiring deep expertise in design-build delivery, performance-based specifications, and integrated project delivery models. Turner plays a pivotal role in translating operational needs into legally sound, technically rigorous solicitations that align with federal acquisition regulations and naval engineering requirements. She maintains consistent, high-volume working relationships with a core group of experienced federal contractors, including BL Harbert International LLC, Walsh Federal LLC, Sauer Construction, LLC, McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, and Kira Aviation Services LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with proven track records in complex, multi-disciplinary construction and utilities projects, often involving coordination with military engineers and environmental compliance teams. Turner’s contracting approach emphasizes performance accountability, schedule adherence, and quality control, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in transparency and regulatory compliance. Turner’s procurement activity is exclusively non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on leveraging market-wide capacity and technical capability rather than socioeconomic set-asides, prioritizing mission urgency and contractor performance over socioeconomic categorization. While small business participation is not formally incentivized through set-asides, her solicitations remain accessible to all qualified vendors, with evaluation criteria focused on technical merit and past performance. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and 237110 (Water and Sewer Line and Related Structures Construction), encompassing new construction, renovations, utility upgrades, and stormwater management systems. She specializes in procuring turnkey solutions that integrate structural, mechanical, and civil engineering systems, requiring advanced knowledge of building codes, sustainable design standards, and DoD facility requirements.
