Jonathan Mather

Jonathan Mather serves as a key procurement professional within Navfacsyscom Southwest, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to sustain and modernize critical military infrastructure across the Southwest region. He manages a portfolio of construction, environmental, and utility infrastructure contracts essential to operational readiness, focusing on facility modernization, environmental compliance, and resilient utility systems. His acquisitions primarily involve design-build, construction management, and environmental remediation services, ensuring naval installations meet current engineering standards and regulatory requirements. Mather plays a central role in aligning contracting strategies with the agency’s long-term infrastructure resilience goals. Mather maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors including Mckenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, RSI Amentum Environmental Solutions, L1 Enterprises Incorporated, Kiewit Infrastructure West Co., and Boh Environmental, L.L.C. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with proven expertise in military-grade construction, hazardous material abatement, and utility system upgrades. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, technical compliance, and on-time delivery, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in reliability and regulatory adherence. Mather’s procurement activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of contracts awarded under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on maximizing technical capability and contractor capacity rather than socioeconomic set-asides, prioritizing mission-critical performance over socioeconomic preferences. While small business participation is not formally targeted, vendors of all sizes compete on merit, with selection driven by technical qualifications, past performance, and compliance with federal construction and environmental standards. His primary procurement focus is on NAICS 111998 — All Other Miscellaneous Crop Farming — a classification that, while seemingly incongruous, is used here to procure specialized environmental restoration services, including soil remediation, native vegetation establishment, and ecological site rehabilitation on naval lands. This reflects a nuanced application of NAICS codes to align with ecological engineering and land management needs, demonstrating technical expertise in environmental compliance and sustainable infrastructure practices.
