Kendall Brooks

Kendall Brooks serves as a key procurement lead within the Mp-Regional Office of the Bureau of Reclamation, overseeing the acquisition of specialized infrastructure components and technical services critical to federal water resource management. Responsible for managing contracts that support hydraulic system maintenance, environmental compliance, and water quality monitoring, Brooks ensures alignment with the agency’s mission of sustainable water delivery and ecosystem protection. Their procurement portfolio emphasizes technical equipment, construction services, and operational support contracts, often requiring rigorous engineering oversight and environmental impact considerations. Brooks maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors, including TEPA EC, LLC, McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, and CDM Federal Programs Corporation, each providing specialized engineering, site development, and federal program management services. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven experience in federal water infrastructure projects and environmental remediation. While a small number of contractors account for the majority of activity, Brooks also engages a broader network of 20+ smaller vendors to meet niche technical requirements and ensure competitive responsiveness. A strong commitment to small business participation defines Brooks’s contracting approach, with 76.9% of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster economic opportunity among small businesses while ensuring access to specialized capabilities. The consistent use of small business set-asides underscores a dedication to socioeconomic goals without compromising technical performance or mission readiness. Brooks’s procurement focus centers on NAICS categories including 333912 (air and gas compressor manufacturing), 335931 (current-carrying wiring device manufacturing), and 334514 (fluid metering and counting devices), indicating a technical emphasis on instrumentation, control systems, and energy-efficient infrastructure components. These categories align with the agency’s need for precision monitoring equipment, electrical systems for remote water facilities, and automated flow control technologies essential to modern water resource operations.
