Jesse Daniel

Jesse Daniel serves as a key procurement lead within the W071 Endist Kansas City office under the Department of the Army, responsible for managing complex construction and infrastructure support contracts critical to sustaining Army installations. Focused on ensuring operational readiness, Jesse oversees the acquisition of civil engineering, facility maintenance, and environmental services that underpin military housing, water systems, roadways, and utility infrastructure. Their work directly supports the agency’s mission to modernize and maintain the physical readiness of Army bases through timely, compliant, and mission-aligned contracting actions. Jesse maintains long-standing relationships with top-tier contractors including HYDROGEOLOGIC, INC., BURNS & MCDONNELL ENGINEERING COMPANY, INC., and HGL-APTIM TECHNOLOGIES JV LLC, often engaging them through competitive sealed bidding and negotiated procurements for large-scale infrastructure projects. These partnerships typically involve joint ventures and multidisciplinary teams capable of delivering integrated solutions in environmental remediation, heavy construction, and facility systems installation. The contracting pattern reflects a preference for experienced, technically capable vendors with proven performance on federal civil works and military support contracts. Jesse’s procurement portfolio exhibits a balanced approach to socioeconomic set-asides, with approximately half of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 and the other half open to all competitors. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster competition while actively promoting opportunities for small businesses, including those certified under SBA programs such as 8(a), HUBZone, and SDVOSB, without compromising technical requirements or schedule integrity. The primary NAICS categories under Jesse’s purview are 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction) and 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), with significant activity in oil and gas pipeline infrastructure and HVAC systems. Their expertise centers on procuring services related to site development, utility upgrades, environmental compliance, and facility modernization—domains requiring deep technical knowledge of military construction standards and federal construction codes.
