CPT(P) Clarissa D. Cordon

MAJ Clarissa Cordon serves as a Contract Specialist within the W074 Endist Charleston office of the Department of the Army, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical civil engineering and infrastructure acquisitions. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—for facilities and utilities projects essential to Army readiness. She specializes in electrical systems contracting, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and technical standards for military installations across the southeastern United States. Her work directly supports the agency’s mission to sustain and modernize barracks, command centers, child development facilities, and coastal defense infrastructure through timely, compliant, and efficient contracting. MAJ Cordon maintains consistent, long-term relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including CORRPRO COMPANIES, INC., BRYMAK & ASSOCIATES, INC., CHANDLER CONSTRUCTION SERVICES, INC., SOUTHERN DREDGING CO INC, and COTTRELL CONTRACTING CORPORATION. These partnerships reflect a preference for established firms with proven expertise in electrical installation, civil works, and marine infrastructure. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous technical evaluation, and adherence to quality assurance protocols, fostering reliable vendor collaboration and project continuity across multi-year initiatives. MAJ Cordon’s procurement portfolio is entirely composed of full and open competitions, with no set-asides designated for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic categories. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in her current acquisition strategy, she ensures all solicitations are structured to allow equitable access and competition among qualified vendors, adhering strictly to federal procurement integrity standards. Her primary technical focus lies in NAICS 238210—Electrical Contractors and Other Wiring Installation Contractors—where she procures complex electrical systems, including power distribution networks, lighting, grounding, and emergency backup systems for military facilities. She possesses deep domain expertise in military electrical codes, NFPA standards, and integrated facility infrastructure, ensuring all contracted work meets stringent DoD operational and safety requirements.
