Jennifer L. Augustine

Jennifer L. Augustine serves as a Contracting Officer for W2SD Endist Baltimore under the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, where she manages the acquisition of critical infrastructure and facility support services essential to military readiness. Her portfolio encompasses the full lifecycle of construction and facility-related contracts, including industrial, commercial, and institutional building projects, as well as water and sewer system construction. She plays a pivotal role in executing the agency’s mission to maintain and modernize federal installations through compliant, transparent, and efficient contracting practices, ensuring alignment with Department of the Army standards and federal procurement regulations. Ms. Augustine maintains established relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including GRUNLEY CONSTRUCTION CO., INC., GREAT LAKES DREDGE & DOCK CO, LLC, MATTHEWS GROUP INC, CURTIN MARITIME CORP, and CHEROENHAKA NOTTOWAY ENTERPRISES, LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in heavy civil construction, marine infrastructure, and institutional facility management. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous contract administration, and long-term vendor reliability over transactional engagements. Her procurement patterns show a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of her awards issued without set-asides, indicating a focus on capability-driven selection rather than socioeconomic targeting. While she does not prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, her contracting decisions remain fully compliant with all socioeconomic regulations, and small business participation is pursued where it aligns with technical requirements and competitive integrity. Ms. Augustine’s primary NAICS focus areas include Industrial Building Construction (236210), Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (236220), and Water and Sewer Line Construction (237110), each representing 25% of her portfolio, alongside Office Machinery and Equipment Rental and Leasing (532420). She specializes in procuring complex construction services, heavy civil works, and mission-critical equipment leasing solutions to sustain military infrastructure across diverse operational environments.
