Jarod Epp

Jarod Epp supports the procurement mission of W7NL USPFO Activity Neang 155 under the Department of the Army, managing acquisitions critical to sustaining and modernizing military infrastructure across the continental United States. He oversees the acquisition of facilities-related goods and services that enhance base resilience, operational readiness, and personnel support, including construction support, logistics equipment, and mission-critical facility services. His role involves executing full lifecycle contracting actions—from market research and solicitation development to award and contract administration—ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and Army installation standards. Epp’s portfolio is strategically aligned with the agency’s priority to upgrade communications, environmental systems, and temporary/permanent installations to meet evolving force posture requirements. While specific contractor names are not publicly identifiable, Epp maintains a robust network of vendor partnerships primarily composed of small businesses, particularly those certified under socioeconomic programs. His contracting patterns reflect a strong emphasis on collaborative, performance-based engagements with firms capable of delivering specialized construction support, technical consulting, and facility operations services. He routinely works with contractors possessing niche expertise in military-grade infrastructure, logistics equipment, and installation sustainment, fostering long-term relationships built on reliability and regulatory compliance. Epp demonstrates a pronounced commitment to small business participation, with 76.2% of his acquisitions set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5. His contracting approach prioritizes inclusive socioeconomic categories, consistently awarding to small disadvantaged businesses, HUBZone firms, and service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses. This pattern reflects a deliberate strategy to leverage small business innovation while advancing the Army’s diversity and resilience goals in infrastructure procurement. His primary procurement focus centers on NAICS codes 333924 for industrial material handling equipment, 722320 for on-base catering services, and 721110 for temporary lodging solutions. He also regularly procures technical consulting services under 541690 and IT support under 541519, indicating expertise in integrated facility operations, logistics automation, and mission-enabling technology services.
