Jessica Stone

Jessica M. Stone serves as a key procurement professional within the W072 Endist Louisville, part of the Department of the Army, where she manages acquisitions critical to sustaining and modernizing military infrastructure across the continental United States. Her responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle of civil engineering and utilities contracts, including construction, renovation, and energy resilience projects for barracks, training facilities, and mission-critical utilities. She specializes in complex, mission-driven procurements under FAR Part 36, focusing on heavy civil engineering, energy systems, and infrastructure modernization to ensure operational readiness. Her work directly supports the Army’s strategic priorities in resilient infrastructure and energy security. Stone maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of established contractors, including Thalle-Bauer LLC, HARPER CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, INC., MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, J.E. DUNN CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, and BL HARBERT INTERNATIONAL LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced firms with proven capabilities in heavy construction, site development, and utility infrastructure. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous technical evaluations, and long-term contractor reliability, fostering a stable vendor ecosystem capable of executing high-complexity projects under demanding military standards. Her procurement portfolio demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly 50% of awards issued as no set-aside and over 40% designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. HUBZone set-asides account for nearly 10% of her awards, reflecting a deliberate effort to leverage socioeconomic programs that promote geographic and economic diversity in the contractor base. While large firms dominate by volume, she actively integrates qualified small businesses into teaming arrangements and prime contract opportunities. Stone’s primary technical focus lies in NAICS 221112 (fossil fuel electric power generation) and 237130 (power and communication line construction), with significant activity in 237990 (other heavy civil engineering) and 561730 (landscaping services). Her expertise spans energy infrastructure, utility line installation, site grading, and environmental compliance, positioning her at the intersection of defense readiness and sustainable infrastructure development.
