Kim Battig

Kim Battig serves as a key procurement lead within the W6QM Micc-JB Lewis-McChord, a Department of the Army installation responsible for sustaining mission-critical infrastructure at Joint Base Lewis-McChord. In this role, Battig manages the full lifecycle of facilities acquisition programs, ensuring compliance with federal contracting regulations and alignment with DoD sustainability goals. Their portfolio is exclusively focused on commercial and institutional building construction, overseeing contracts for new construction, renovation, and infrastructure modernization to maintain operational readiness and environmental compliance across military installations. Battig’s work directly supports the base’s mission to provide secure, habitable, and energy-efficient environments for service members and civilian personnel. Battig maintains a highly focused contractor ecosystem, with the Port of Moses Lake as the primary awardee for construction services. While other vendors participate in minor capacities, the contracting pattern reflects a deliberate preference for established, regionally based contractors with proven experience in military facility projects. This concentrated relationship model ensures continuity, reliability, and deep familiarity with DoD construction standards and security protocols. A defining feature of Battig’s procurement strategy is a 100% commitment to small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, ensuring all construction contracts are reserved exclusively for small businesses. This reflects a strong institutional emphasis on socioeconomic equity and workforce development, empowering small firms to compete for and execute complex federal construction projects without competition from large businesses. Battig’s technical expertise centers on NAICS 236220—Commercial and Institutional Building Construction—covering everything from barracks and administrative facilities to utility upgrades and energy-efficient retrofits. Their procurement focus demands deep knowledge of building codes, sustainable design practices, and military construction specifications, ensuring all projects meet stringent DoD standards for durability, safety, and long-term operational support.
