Jacnita Combs

Jacnita Combs serves as a key procurement professional within Navfacsyscom Southeast, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to deliver resilient, mission-critical infrastructure across the Southeastern U.S. and overseas operational areas. She manages a diverse portfolio of construction and facility support contracts, focusing on commercial and institutional building construction, nonresidential building leasing, and environmental remediation services. Her work ensures the timely delivery of infrastructure essential to naval readiness, aligning acquisitions with strategic priorities in base operations support and facility modernization. Combs handles complex, high-stakes procurements under FAR Part 36 and related construction authorities, coordinating with engineers, project managers, and environmental specialists to meet operational requirements. She maintains established working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including BL Harbert International LLC, Walsh Federal LLC, Sauer Construction, LLC, McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, and Kira Aviation Services LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with proven track records in federal construction, facility management, and aviation support services. Combs engages these vendors through competitive, full-and-open and small business set-aside mechanisms, fostering reliable, performance-based contractual relationships that prioritize quality, compliance, and schedule adherence. Combs demonstrates a balanced approach to socioeconomic contracting, with approximately one-third of her acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, while the majority remain open to all competitors. This pattern reflects a strategic commitment to small business participation without compromising access to qualified large firms capable of delivering complex, large-scale infrastructure projects. Her contracting decisions consistently align with Department of Defense and Navy small business goals, ensuring equitable opportunity while maintaining mission readiness. Her procurement focus centers on NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), 531120 (Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings), and 562910 (Remediation Services), indicating deep expertise in facility construction, long-term property management, and environmental cleanup of contaminated sites. She routinely manages acquisitions involving structural upgrades, utility systems, hazardous material abatement, and facility leasing arrangements critical to sustaining naval installations.
