Krause serves as a key procurement professional within Navfacsyscom Southwest, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to deliver resilient infrastructure across the Southwest region. She manages a diverse portfolio of construction, environmental remediation, and facilities support contracts, ensuring alignment with operational readiness goals and environmental compliance standards. Her work centers on acquiring critical services that sustain aging military installations, modernize utility systems, and enhance energy and water resilience.

She maintains consistent partnerships with leading contractors including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, RSI AMENTUM ENVIRONMENTAL SOLUTIONS, L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED, KIEWIT INFRASTRUCTURE WEST CO., and Boh Environmental, L.L.C., reflecting a preference for experienced firms with proven capabilities in military facility support. Her contracting patterns indicate collaboration with both large primes and small business subcontractors, fostering a structured supply chain that balances technical proficiency with regulatory compliance.

This balanced approach supports socioeconomic goals without compromising mission requirements. Her procurement strategy actively encourages small business involvement through set-asides while maintaining flexibility for complex, large-scale projects. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 562910 (Remediation Services), reflecting a heavy emphasis on environmental cleanup and hazardous material management, followed by NAICS 237130 (Power and Communication Line Construction) and NAICS 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors).
