Deneen K. Person

Deneen K. Person serves as a Contract Specialist within the W2SN Endist Far East under the Department of the Army, responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions to support infrastructure sustainment and operational readiness across U.S. military installations in the Far East region. She executes competitive and non-competitive acquisitions for facilities-related goods and services, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and alignment with strategic force projection goals. Her portfolio primarily encompasses construction support, facility equipment, and specialized instrumentation, requiring precise technical evaluation and risk mitigation in austere operational environments. Deneen collaborates with a diverse base of vendors specializing in military-grade infrastructure solutions, including manufacturers of durable office furniture, precision measurement devices, and site preparation contractors. While no single contractor dominates her award profile, she maintains consistent working relationships with firms capable of meeting stringent DoD quality, delivery, and security standards. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting, clear statement of work development, and post-award oversight to ensure mission-critical deliverables are met on schedule and within scope. Deneen’s contracting activity is exclusively non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a deliberate alignment with the urgency and scale of infrastructure needs in the theater, where rapid capability delivery takes precedence over socioeconomic set-asides. While she does not prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, her process remains transparent and compliant, ensuring equitable access for all qualified offerors. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 337211 (Wood Office Furniture Manufacturing), supporting garrison facility modernization, followed by 334519 (Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing) for environmental and safety monitoring systems, and 238910 (Site Preparation Contractors) for base expansion and resilience projects. Deneen brings specialized expertise in procuring technically complex, standards-driven products and services critical to sustaining military operations in the Indo-Pacific region.
