Laura Wasilewski

Laura Wasilewski serves as a key procurement professional within the W071 Endist Omaha office of the Department of the Army, responsible for managing complex acquisitions that sustain and modernize critical military infrastructure. Her work directly supports the agency’s mission to enable strategic deterrence, training readiness, and base resilience through the acquisition of hardened facilities, utility systems, and specialized equipment. She oversees a diverse portfolio of professional services and industrial manufacturing contracts, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurements with Army-wide modernization priorities. Her role is central to delivering mission-critical capabilities across the continental U.S. defense footprint. Wasilewski maintains established working relationships with a core group of contractors including JOHN BOWMAN, INC., PAF ELECTRICAL, INC., HENDRICKSON TRANSPORTATION LLC, PERINI MANAGEMENT SERVICES, INC., and WASHINGTON EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURING COMPANY, INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, vertically integrated vendors capable of delivering turnkey solutions in electrical systems, heavy equipment manufacturing, transportation logistics, and construction management. Her contracting patterns indicate a reliance on repeat performers with proven track records in defense infrastructure projects, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in technical reliability and regulatory compliance. Her procurement strategy exhibits a balanced approach to socioeconomic set-asides, with approximately half of her awards designated for Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and the other half awarded as unrestricted competitions. This pattern underscores a deliberate effort to foster small business participation while maintaining access to qualified large-capacity contractors for mission-critical, high-complexity requirements. She consistently prioritizes small business eligibility and capability assessments in source selection, reinforcing the Army’s commitment to equitable contracting opportunities. Her primary NAICS focus lies in 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services) and 333924 (Industrial Truck, Tractor, Trailer, and Stacker Machinery Manufacturing), reflecting deep expertise in engineering support services and specialized material handling equipment. She procures technical consulting, infrastructure planning, and heavy-duty industrial machinery essential to nuclear deterrence infrastructure and military logistics operations, demonstrating specialized domain knowledge in defense-critical industrial systems.
