Marie Young

Marie Young serves as a key procurement lead within the 0413 Aq Hq Rco-hi, a U.S. Army installation support unit under the Department of the Army, responsible for managing facility maintenance and mission-enabling contracts across the Pacific region. Her work directly supports operational continuity by securing critical infrastructure services, with a primary focus on flooring and surface installation contracts under NAICS 238330. She executes acquisitions aligned with the agency’s strategic priorities in installation sustainability, ensuring compliance with environmental standards and readiness requirements through timely, compliant contracting actions. Her portfolio centers on service-based contracts that maintain and upgrade military facilities to sustain long-term operational capacity. Marie Young maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including HAMASAKI CONSTRUCTION LLC, PHOENIX V LLC, SURECAN LLC, HONOLULU DISPOSAL SERVICE, INC., and PERRY MANAGEMENT CORP OF SOUTH DAKOTA, L.L.C. These partnerships reflect a preference for regional and specialized firms with proven expertise in military facility upgrades, flooring systems, and site-specific installation services. Her contracting approach emphasizes reliability, performance history, and local market knowledge, fostering long-term vendor collaboration to meet the unique demands of Pacific theater installations. Her procurement strategy reflects a balanced commitment to small business participation, with approximately half of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, and the remainder open to full and open competition. This pattern demonstrates a deliberate effort to promote economic opportunity among qualified small businesses while maintaining flexibility to secure specialized capabilities when needed. She does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, instead prioritizing broad small business eligibility under the total set-aside mechanism. Marie Young’s procurement focus is exclusively concentrated on NAICS 238330—Flooring Contractors—reflecting deep technical expertise in the specification, installation, and maintenance of commercial and military-grade flooring systems. She procures services including epoxy coatings, vinyl composition tile, rubber flooring, and modular tile systems tailored to high-traffic military facilities. Her domain knowledge ensures compliance with Army technical manuals and safety standards for durability, slip resistance, and chemical resistance in operational environments.
