Mariana Reyes

Mariana Reyes serves as a key procurement professional within Navfacsyscom Northwest, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to deliver mission-critical infrastructure across the Pacific Northwest. She manages the full lifecycle of acquisitions for sewage treatment and wastewater infrastructure projects, ensuring compliance with federal environmental regulations and naval operational readiness requirements. Her work directly enables the modernization of naval shipyards and base utilities, with a focus on sustainable, resilient systems that meet stringent environmental compliance standards. Reyes handles complex, high-stakes contracts under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, coordinating with engineers, environmental specialists, and project managers to align procurement outcomes with strategic facility goals. She maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of specialized contractors, including Contrack Watts Inc., Absher Construction Co., and Environmental Assessment Services, LLC—firms with proven expertise in wastewater system design, construction, and environmental compliance. These partnerships reflect a preference for contractors with deep technical capabilities in civil infrastructure and environmental remediation, often requiring specialized certifications and experience with Department of Defense environmental protocols. Reyes fosters long-term vendor collaboration grounded in performance reliability and regulatory adherence. Reyes demonstrates an unwavering commitment to small business participation, directing 100% of her acquisitions toward total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This pattern underscores a deliberate strategy to empower qualified small firms with niche expertise in environmental and utility infrastructure, ensuring broad economic opportunity while maintaining high standards of technical execution. Her contracting approach prioritizes socioeconomic goals without compromising mission-critical performance requirements. Her primary procurement focus is exclusively on NAICS 221320—Sewage Treatment Facilities—reflecting deep technical expertise in wastewater collection, treatment, and discharge systems. She procures turnkey solutions involving engineered designs, construction, permitting, and environmental monitoring services, ensuring naval installations meet EPA and Navy environmental mandates while supporting long-term operational sustainability.
