Lillian Parhm

Lillian Parhm serves as a key contracting professional within the 0906 Aq Co Contracting Bat, a unit of the Department of the Army responsible for sustaining and modernizing U.S. military infrastructure in overseas theaters. She manages a diverse portfolio of construction and facilities support acquisitions critical to operational readiness, including the design, construction, and maintenance of barracks, command facilities, and utility systems. Her work directly supports the Department of Defense’s force posture objectives by ensuring resilient, modular infrastructure is rapidly deployed and maintained in high-priority regions. Parhm handles complex, mission-critical procurements under FAR Part 36, often involving performance-based service contracts and design-build delivery methods to accelerate project timelines and enhance lifecycle efficiency. Her primary contractor relationships center on PYUNGTAEK ENVIRONMENT CO., LTD, a dominant performer in overseas military construction and environmental infrastructure projects. She maintains a streamlined procurement approach with this key vendor, leveraging long-term contractual frameworks to ensure consistent delivery of facility upgrades and utility system repairs. While PYUNGTAEK is the principal partner, she also engages a broad base of smaller vendors, typically for niche services or specialized components, fostering a competitive yet efficient contracting environment focused on mission outcomes rather than socioeconomic preferences. Parhm’s contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for full and open competition, with 95.2% of awards issued without set-asides. Only 4.8% of contracts utilize the Local Area Set-Aside provision under FAR 26.2, indicating a strategic prioritization of capability and readiness over socioeconomic targeting. This reflects the operational urgency and global nature of her portfolio, where specialized technical expertise and proven overseas execution capacity outweigh traditional small business set-aside criteria. Her primary NAICS focus includes 236220 for commercial and institutional building construction, 237310 for transportation infrastructure, and 334210 for telecommunications equipment—demonstrating expertise in integrated facility systems that combine physical structures with mission-critical communications infrastructure. She procures turnkey solutions for modular housing, electrical distribution networks, and hardened command centers, requiring deep familiarity with military construction standards, expeditionary engineering, and DoD sustainability directives.
