Gene Snyman

Gene Snyman serves as Deputy, Small Business for W076 Endist Tulsa under the Department of the Army, where he plays a pivotal role in advancing socioeconomic contracting goals while supporting critical infrastructure modernization across military installations. He oversees the integration of small business participation into large-scale civil engineering and facility sustainment acquisitions, ensuring alignment with Army priorities in environmental stewardship, janitorial services, and heavy construction. His responsibilities include advising contracting teams on socioeconomic strategy, reviewing set-aside eligibility, and facilitating vendor outreach to maximize small business engagement within the agency’s procurement lifecycle. Snyman maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including BL HARBERT INTERNATIONAL LLC, MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, ALBERICI CONSTRUCTORS INC, MCMILLEN, INC., and PERIKIN ENTERPRISES LLC. These partnerships are primarily centered on commercial and institutional building construction, heavy civil engineering, and landscaping services. His approach emphasizes performance-based contracting, with a preference for firms demonstrating proven capability in complex, multi-year facility sustainment projects and compliance-driven environmental work. Notably, Snyman’s portfolio reflects a 100% no set-aside procurement pattern, indicating a strategic focus on full and open competition for high-complexity, mission-critical projects. While small business participation is not mandated through set-asides, he actively encourages subcontracting opportunities and mentor-protégé arrangements to ensure small businesses remain integrated into the supply chain. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), which accounts for 70% of activity, followed by 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction) and 561730 (Landscaping Services). He specializes in acquisitions involving facility upgrades, infrastructure rehabilitation, stormwater management, and grounds maintenance—domains requiring technical expertise in federal construction standards, environmental regulations, and performance-based service delivery.
