Joel V Deare

Joel V. Deare serves as a Contract Specialist within NAVFACSYSCOM Northwest, where he plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions that support naval infrastructure readiness across the Pacific Northwest. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions—from requirements validation and market research to contract award and administration—he specializes in environmental, construction, and facility support contracts aligned with the Department of the Navy’s strategic priorities. His portfolio primarily encompasses remediation, solid waste management, security services, and commercial building construction, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and environmental mandates while enabling operational continuity at naval installations. Deare maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including Contrack Watts Inc., Absher Construction Co., and Environmental Assessment Services, LLC, reflecting a preference for established vendors with proven technical expertise in naval facility support. His contracting patterns indicate a reliance on firms with deep domain knowledge in environmental compliance, hazardous material handling, and shipyard infrastructure modernization, fostering long-term partnerships grounded in performance reliability and regulatory alignment. His procurement strategy reflects a balanced commitment to socioeconomic objectives, with approximately one-third of awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and nearly one-sixth reserved for HUBZone firms. While half of his acquisitions remain open to all competitors, his consistent use of set-asides demonstrates a deliberate effort to expand opportunities for small, disadvantaged, and geographically targeted businesses within the defense contracting ecosystem. Deare’s technical focus centers on NAICS codes 562910 (Remediation Services) and 562111 (Solid Waste Collection), with significant activity in 561612 (Security Guards and Patrol Services) and 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction). This specialization underscores his expertise in sustaining mission-critical infrastructure through environmentally compliant, security-enhanced, and construction-supported acquisitions that directly enable naval operational readiness.
