Joann Mallory

Joann Mallory serves as the primary procurement lead for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Fws Construction & A/E - Bil/Disaster program under the Department of the Interior, overseeing the acquisition of construction and specialized trade services critical to the rehabilitation and resilience of national wildlife refuges, fish hatcheries, and conservation infrastructure. Her role centers on managing complex construction-related contracts aligned with disaster recovery mandates and facility modernization goals, ensuring compliance with federal construction standards and environmental stewardship objectives. She handles a broad spectrum of acquisitions, including design-build, renovation, and infrastructure repair projects, with a strong emphasis on mission-critical habitat and public access improvements. Mallory maintains a consistent working relationship with Cynergy Professional Systems LLC, a key contractor providing specialized construction and engineering support across multiple refuge sites. Her procurement approach favors established vendors with demonstrated expertise in federal environmental construction, fostering long-term partnerships that ensure technical reliability and regulatory compliance. She engages primarily with firms possessing proven experience in navigating sensitive ecological zones and coordinating with wildlife management teams to minimize operational disruption during construction. Her contracting portfolio reflects a balanced commitment to small business participation, with nearly half of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate preference for small business contractors over unrestricted competitions. While no other socioeconomic set-asides dominate her portfolio, her pattern indicates a strategic emphasis on empowering qualified small businesses with relevant construction and trade capabilities. Mallory’s procurement focus is concentrated in commercial and institutional building construction (NAICS 236220), with significant activity in plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning systems (238220), and support activities for forestry (115310). She regularly procures services related to facility upgrades, utility system modernization, and civil engineering work supporting wildlife conservation infrastructure, reflecting deep expertise in environmentally sensitive construction and integrated facility management within protected lands.
