J Anthony Josey

J. Anthony Josey serves as a Contract Specialist within the W074 Endist Charleston office under the Department of the Army, where he manages the acquisition of critical civil engineering and infrastructure support services essential to Army readiness across the southeastern United States. His responsibilities include planning, soliciting, negotiating, and administering contracts for construction, dredging, and specialty trade services that sustain and modernize military facilities—including barracks, command centers, and coastal defense systems. Josey plays a pivotal role in ensuring timely and compliant delivery of mission-critical assets aligned with the Army’s infrastructure modernization priorities, leveraging full and open competition to meet operational demands while adhering to federal acquisition regulations. Josey maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including CORRPRO COMPANIES, INC., BRYMAK & ASSOCIATES, INC., CHANDLER CONSTRUCTION SERVICES, INC., SOUTHERN DREDGING CO INC, and COTTRELL CONTRACTING CORPORATION. These partnerships reflect a preference for established firms with proven expertise in heavy civil construction, environmental remediation, and specialty trade execution. His procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting, rigorous technical evaluation, and post-award oversight to ensure quality, safety, and schedule adherence on complex infrastructure projects. Josey’s acquisition portfolio is entirely structured under full and open competition, with no set-asides designated for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic programs. This reflects a mission-driven focus on securing the highest technical capability and operational readiness, prioritizing contractor experience and past performance over socioeconomic preferences in this high-stakes infrastructure domain. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction), with significant activity in 238990 (All Other Specialty Trade Contractors) and 813920 (Professional Organizations). He specializes in acquiring services related to structural construction, marine dredging, corrosion control, and engineering support, demonstrating deep expertise in civil works, military facility sustainment, and coastal infrastructure resilience.
