Katie Rockwell

Katie Rockwell serves as a key procurement lead within the W076 Endist Ft Worth office under the Department of the Army, overseeing the acquisition of nonresidential building leasing services to sustain and modernize military installations across the continental United States. Her role centers on ensuring mission-critical facility operations remain functional, safe, and environmentally compliant through strategic contracting for infrastructure support. She manages a specialized portfolio of long-term lease agreements and facility service contracts, primarily focused on institutional barracks, administrative buildings, and related infrastructure assets. Rockwell’s work directly supports the Army’s broader goals of installation resilience and operational readiness by securing reliable, high-performance real estate solutions through competitive and compliant acquisition processes. Rockwell maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including M. A. Mortenson Company, Federal Contracting Inc, and Cerris Builders, Inc., all of which have demonstrated expertise in facility operations, maintenance, and construction support services. These partnerships are characterized by repeat engagements and performance-based contract execution, reflecting a preference for vendors with proven track records in military infrastructure environments. Her procurement approach emphasizes reliability, compliance with federal facility standards, and seamless integration with existing garrison operations. Rockwell’s contracting activity shows a 100% preference for no set-aside mechanisms, indicating a focus on full and open competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. While small business participation is not a primary driver in her portfolio, her acquisitions remain fully compliant with FAR requirements and prioritize technical capability and operational readiness over socioeconomic classifications. Her primary NAICS focus is 531120—Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings (except Miniwarehouses)—reflecting deep expertise in procuring leased facility space and associated management services for military use. She specializes in long-term real property leases that support institutional operations, including utilities, maintenance, security, and environmental compliance, ensuring that Army installations meet operational and regulatory standards through strategic real estate acquisition.
