Responsible for managing construction-related acquisitions, Jenkins oversees the full lifecycle of contracts for civil works projects, ensuring compliance with federal regulations and operational readiness requirements. Their portfolio is exclusively focused on public works construction, with an emphasis on modernizing aging facilities and sustaining combat-ready bases through timely, high-quality delivery of infrastructure. Jenkins maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of experienced prime contractors, including RYAN CONSTRUCTION CO INC, WEEKS-CASHMAN JV, APPLEDORE MARINE - CH2M JV, W. M. JORDAN COMPANY, INCORPORATED, and MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with proven expertise in heavy civil construction, marine infrastructure, and site development. The working relationships are characterized by collaborative contract administration, rigorous performance oversight, and a shared commitment to safety, schedule adherence, and quality control on complex federal projects. All acquisitions managed by Jenkins are fully set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5, reflecting a robust and unwavering commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals.

Their contracts typically involve earthmoving, grading, culvert installation, road reconstruction, and associated utilities, requiring specialized knowledge of federal construction standards, environmental compliance, and geotechnical considerations.
