Jessica Grosso

Jessica Grosso serves as the primary contracting professional for Navfacsyscom Mid-Atlantic, a field activity of the Department of the Navy, where she plays a central role in executing facility acquisition programs critical to Navy and Marine Corps operational readiness. She manages a diverse portfolio of construction and facilities support contracts, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing the agency’s mission to modernize aging infrastructure and sustain combat-ready installations across the Mid-Atlantic region. Her acquisitions primarily involve complex, mission-critical projects requiring integrated design-build delivery, performance-based services, and rigorous environmental and safety standards. Grosso maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of established contractors including RYAN CONSTRUCTION CO INC, WEEKS-CASHMAN JV, APPLEDORE MARINE - CH2M JV, W. M. JORDAN COMPANY, INCORPORATED, and MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced firms capable of delivering large-scale commercial and institutional construction under tight operational timelines. Her procurement approach emphasizes contractor reliability, technical capability, and past performance, often leveraging negotiated procurements and design-build methodologies to streamline delivery and enhance mission outcomes. Her contracting patterns demonstrate a strong commitment to small business participation, with 8(a) competed set-asides accounting for 34.2% of her awards and total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 representing 21.1%. While nearly half of her acquisitions are open to all competitors, she actively prioritizes socioeconomic programs to foster vendor diversity and support emerging small business capabilities in the defense construction sector. Grosso’s procurement focus is overwhelmingly centered on NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), reflecting her specialization in constructing and renovating barracks, administrative facilities, training centers, and other mission-critical infrastructure. She also oversees related facilities support services under NAICS 561210, ensuring integrated maintenance and operational readiness through performance-based contracting models. Her expertise lies in delivering resilient, code-compliant facilities that meet stringent DoD standards for durability, sustainability, and mission continuity.
