Jeremiah Rogers

Jeremiah B. Rogers serves as a Contract Specialist within the 6982AF Central Federal Lands Division of the Federal Highway Administration, where he manages the acquisition of critical transportation infrastructure projects across federally managed lands, including national parks, forests, and Native American territories. His role encompasses the full lifecycle of contract solicitation, evaluation, award, and administration for civil engineering and construction services essential to maintaining safe, durable, and sustainable access to remote federal properties. He specializes in complex, high-stakes procurements under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, with a focus on ensuring compliance, competitive bidding, and mission-aligned outcomes for highway, bridge, and related civil works. Rogers maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including STEELHEAD CONSTRUCTORS JV, HERBACK GENERAL ENGINEERING LLC, SEB ENGINEERING INC., S.T. RHODES CONSTRUCTION INCORPORATED, and MCCULLOUGH CONSTRUCTION INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with proven expertise in federal lands construction and engineering, often leveraging past performance and technical capability over price alone. His procurement approach emphasizes reliability, safety compliance, and adherence to federal engineering standards, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in accountability and performance-based outcomes. His contracting patterns show a strong preference for open competition, with 87.5% of awards issued without set-asides, reflecting the scale and technical demands of infrastructure projects. However, he actively supports socioeconomic goals through targeted use of Total Small Business Set-Asides (7.5%) and HUBZone Set-Asides (5.0%), ensuring meaningful opportunities for qualified small and disadvantaged firms in roles aligned with their capabilities. Rogers’ primary procurement focus is on NAICS 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction), accounting for nearly 80% of his portfolio, complemented by engineering services (541330) and specialized technical services. He routinely procures design-build, construction management, and civil engineering solutions tailored to rugged, environmentally sensitive terrains, demonstrating deep domain expertise in federal transportation infrastructure delivery.
