Jeffrey T. McLaughlin serves as a key procurement professional within the W2SD Endist Norfolk office of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, supporting the Department of the Army’s mission to sustain and modernize critical military infrastructure across the Eastern United States. He manages the acquisition of remediation services essential to environmental compliance, hazardous material abatement, and site restoration for military installations. His portfolio centers on complex, high-stakes environmental contracts designed to ensure operational readiness, force protection, and long-term infrastructure resilience. McLaughlin oversees the full lifecycle of procurements—from needs assessment and solicitation to contract award and performance monitoring—ensuring alignment with federal environmental regulations and Army sustainability goals. McLaughlin maintains consistent, long-term relationships with a core group of experienced environmental remediation contractors, including Clark Construction Group LLC, Sawyer Services Inc., Vanar Eastern JV1, LLC, and Ritz Construction Inc. These partners are selected for their technical proficiency in soil and groundwater remediation, asbestos and lead abatement, and contaminated site closure. His contracting approach emphasizes proven performance, regulatory compliance, and operational reliability, fostering collaborative, performance-based vendor partnerships that prioritize mission-critical outcomes over transactional engagements. McLaughlin’s procurement portfolio reflects a strict focus on full and open competition, with 100% of awards issued under no set-aside conditions. While he does not routinely utilize socioeconomic programs such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, his contracting decisions are driven by technical capability, past performance, and mission necessity, ensuring the Army receives the highest quality remediation services available in the marketplace. His primary technical domain is NAICS 562910 (Remediation Services), encompassing the full spectrum of environmental cleanup activities including hazardous waste removal, underground storage tank remediation, and soil vapor extraction. McLaughlin’s expertise lies in procuring specialized engineering and field services that meet stringent EPA and Army Corps of Engineers environmental standards, ensuring installations remain compliant, safe, and operationally viable.
