Frederick Coffey

Frederick Coffey serves as a key procurement lead within the W072 Endist Detroit office of the Department of the Army, overseeing complex civil engineering and infrastructure support contracts critical to military readiness. His responsibilities center on managing acquisitions for large-scale waterway, harbor, and dredging projects, as well as related civil works that sustain navigational infrastructure and environmental resilience. He handles competitive and negotiated procurements under FAR Part 36, with a focus on design-build, construction management, and performance-based service contracts that align with the Army Corps of Engineers’ mission to modernize critical waterborne logistics systems. Coffey maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of specialized contractors, including KOONTZ ELECTRIC COMPANY, INCORPORATED for electrical infrastructure, STRATUS SECURITY MANAGEMENT INC for site security integration, MORRISH-WALLACE CONSTRUCTION, INC. for heavy civil works, GREAT LAKES DOCK AND MATERIALS, L.L.C. for marine structure fabrication, and TOGIAK MANAGEMENT SERVICES LLC for environmental and logistical support. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in marine construction, dredging, and military-grade civil engineering, often requiring specialized certifications and compliance with federal environmental and safety standards. His procurement pattern shows a strong preference for unrestricted competitions, with 93.3% of awards issued without set-asides, indicating a focus on technical capability and past performance over socioeconomic criteria. Only 6.7% of contracts are structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, suggesting a pragmatic approach prioritizing mission-critical capacity over socioeconomic targeting. The primary NAICS codes driving his portfolio are 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction) and 541380 (Testing Laboratories and Services), reflecting deep expertise in marine infrastructure, geotechnical evaluation, and environmental monitoring. He procures services ranging from harbor dredging and breakwater construction to structural integrity testing and waste management for contaminated sites, demonstrating a technical command over civil works domains essential to Army logistics and coastal resilience.
