Leigh A Walker

Leigh A. Walker serves as a key procurement professional within Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Mid-Atlantic (NAVFACSYSCOM Mid-Atlantic), supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to deliver resilient, mission-critical infrastructure across Navy and Marine Corps installations in the Mid-Atlantic region. Responsible for managing complex construction and facility modernization contracts, Walker ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while advancing operational readiness through timely delivery of base infrastructure, utilities, and environmental compliance projects. Their work spans the full lifecycle of acquisition—from requirements definition and solicitation to contract award and administration—focusing on high-stakes, mission-essential projects that sustain combat readiness and modernize aging facilities. Walker maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of established contractors, including RYAN CONSTRUCTION CO INC, WEEKS-CASHMAN JV, APPLEDORE MARINE - CH2M JV, W. M. JORDAN COMPANY, INCORPORATED, and MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, multi-disciplinary firms capable of executing large-scale civil works, marine construction, and site development under stringent military standards. The working relationship pattern emphasizes performance reliability, technical proficiency, and adherence to safety and environmental protocols. Set-aside preferences reveal a balanced commitment to socioeconomic programs, with approximately half of acquisitions conducted as open competitions, while 25% are total small business set-asides, 12.5% allocated to 8(a) competed contracts, and another 12.5% reserved for HUBZone firms. This distribution underscores a deliberate strategy to foster small business participation without compromising mission-critical delivery timelines or technical requirements. While specific NAICS codes are not available, the procurement portfolio is heavily concentrated in construction, civil engineering, and infrastructure modernization services, indicating deep expertise in facilities construction, utilities systems, and environmental remediation projects critical to naval base sustainment.
