Felipe D. Zaragoza

Felipe D. Zaragoza serves as the primary contracting representative for W6QM Micc-ft Leavenworth under the Department of the Army, overseeing the acquisition of critical infrastructure and facility support services essential to garrison readiness. His role centers on managing construction, maintenance, and technical support contracts that ensure compliance with military standards and sustain mission-critical installations. He routinely handles firm-fixed-price and cost-reimbursement acquisitions under FAR Part 36, with a focus on design-build and performance-based service contracts that align with Army installation modernization priorities. Zaragoza maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including PRAIRIE BAND CONSTRUCTION, INC., PREMIER MECHANICAL PRODUCTS LLC, SES TECHNOLOGIES LLC, AMERICAN BOILER SERVICES INC, and ACI BUILD GROUP LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven expertise in military-grade construction and facility systems, particularly those capable of delivering complex, multi-trade integration services under tight operational timelines. His contracting approach emphasizes accountability, performance metrics, and compliance with Army Technical Manuals and environmental regulations. His procurement strategy demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly two-thirds of contracts set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5. While the majority of awards flow to general small business concerns, he also strategically utilizes Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business set-asides, reflecting the agency’s alignment with national socioeconomic contracting goals. This pattern underscores a deliberate effort to broaden vendor diversity while maintaining quality and readiness standards. Zaragoza’s portfolio is heavily concentrated in commercial and institutional building construction (NAICS 236220), with significant activity in highway and bridge construction (237310), roofing (238160), and poured concrete foundations (238110). His technical expertise lies in managing integrated facility projects that combine structural, mechanical, and environmental systems, ensuring installations meet Army Garrison standards for safety, durability, and operational continuity.
