Maria Colville

Maria Colville serves as a Contract Specialist for the W071 Endist Seattle office under the Department of the Army, where she manages the full lifecycle of construction and civil infrastructure procurements critical to military installation resilience across the Pacific Northwest. Her role centers on executing complex, mission-critical contracts for facility construction, hydraulic systems, and environmental remediation projects that sustain Army readiness. She specializes in soliciting, evaluating, and awarding contracts under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, ensuring compliance with statutory requirements while aligning acquisitions with strategic infrastructure modernization goals. Colville maintains longstanding relationships with key contractors including RDC JPA Architecture, FinCantieri Marine Repair LLC, Walsh Federal LLC, Absher Construction Co., and Big River Construction Inc., all of which provide specialized expertise in commercial and institutional construction, marine repair, and heavy civil works. Her procurement approach emphasizes collaborative engagement with vendors possessing proven track records in military-grade construction standards, fostering consistent performance and compliance with Army Corps of Engineers specifications. A staunch advocate for small business participation, Colville exclusively utilizes Total Small Business Set-Aside authorities under FAR 19.5, ensuring that 100% of her procurements are reserved for small business concerns. This reflects a deliberate, agency-aligned strategy to maximize economic opportunity for small contractors while maintaining high standards of technical capability and delivery reliability. Her primary procurement focus is on NAICS 236220—Commercial and Institutional Building Construction—encompassing new construction, renovations, and infrastructure upgrades for barracks, administrative facilities, and support structures. She brings deep technical familiarity with building codes, sustainable construction practices, and military-specific design requirements, ensuring all acquisitions meet stringent safety, durability, and operational readiness standards.
