Helene S. Mitchell

Helene Mitchell serves as a key procurement lead within W074 Endist Mobile, a Department of the Army entity responsible for delivering critical infrastructure resilience across military installations. She manages a diverse portfolio of construction, engineering, and environmental service contracts aligned with the agency’s mission to modernize defense facilities and ensure operational readiness. Her acquisitions span commercial and institutional building construction, heavy civil engineering, and integrated environmental remediation, requiring strict compliance with federal construction standards and sustainability mandates. Mitchell’s work directly supports the Army’s long-term infrastructure modernization goals through strategic contracting that balances technical rigor with mission-critical timelines. She maintains established relationships with top-tier contractors including ARELI, INC., THE ROBINS & MORTON GROUP, J & J MAINTENANCE INC, ROYCE CONSTRUCTION SERVICES, LLC, and VALIANT CONSTRUCTION LLC, reflecting a preference for proven performers with demonstrated expertise in defense-related construction and facility support. Her contracting patterns indicate a reliance on experienced general contractors capable of executing complex, multi-disciplinary projects under stringent DoD oversight, often involving coordination with environmental regulators and facility engineers. Mitchell’s set-aside strategy prioritizes open competition, with 61.8% of awards issued without socioeconomic set-asides, yet she consistently integrates small business participation, allocating over 38% of opportunities to small business categories including Total Small Business Set-Asides (21.8%), 8(a) competed awards (10.9%), and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business Set-Asides (5.5%). This balanced approach ensures competitive rigor while advancing socioeconomic goals mandated by FAR Part 19. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 325320 (pesticide and agricultural chemical manufacturing), 561210 (facilities support services), and 531120 (nonresidential building lessors), indicating deep engagement in environmental compliance, facility maintenance, and infrastructure leasing. She also procures surveying and mapping services (541370) and ship repair capabilities (336611), demonstrating technical proficiency across defense-specific domains requiring specialized licensing and regulatory adherence.
