Joseph J. Hetrick

Joseph J. Hetrick serves as a key procurement lead within the W075 Endist Sacramento office of the Department of the Army, responsible for managing acquisition strategies that sustain and modernize critical military infrastructure across the Western United States. His work directly supports the agency’s mission to ensure operational readiness through facility lifecycle management, environmental compliance, and installation support services. Hetrick routinely handles complex service-based acquisitions under FAR Part 12 and Part 36, with a focus on construction-related support, environmental remediation, and facility maintenance contracts. He operates within a structured contracting environment that prioritizes mission-critical outcomes while adhering to federal procurement regulations and sustainability mandates. Hetrick maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors, including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, FAR WEST CONTRACTORS CORP, and ALEUT CONSTRUCTION LLC, all of which are experienced in military installation support and regional infrastructure projects. His procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships with firms possessing proven capabilities in site development, environmental services, and facility operations. These relationships are built on performance reliability, compliance with DoD standards, and demonstrated expertise in executing work under stringent security and environmental protocols. A defining feature of Hetrick’s contracting portfolio is its strong emphasis on small business participation, with 88.2% of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize economic opportunity for small, locally-based firms and to leverage their agility in delivering installation support services. His contracting patterns consistently prioritize socioeconomic programs, aligning with Army-wide goals to strengthen community resilience and diversify the defense industrial base. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 561730 (Landscaping Services), 561720 (Janitorial Services), and 541511/541512 (custom computer programming and systems design), reflecting a hybrid need for both physical infrastructure maintenance and digital facility management solutions. He routinely acquires services related to grounds maintenance, facility cleaning, environmental monitoring, and integrated building automation systems, demonstrating expertise in blending traditional civil works with modern IT-enabled facility operations.
