Marilyn Hill

Marilyn Hill serves as a Contracting Officer at the W39L USA Readiness Center under the Department of the Army, where she manages the acquisition of critical engineering, construction, and professional services essential to sustaining military readiness. Her portfolio focuses on securing expert consulting, infrastructure support, and technical services that enhance training, logistics, and facility sustainment capabilities. She oversees the full lifecycle of contract actions—from market research and solicitation to award and administration—ensuring alignment with Army modernization priorities, particularly in command and control systems and operational infrastructure. Her work directly enables the agency’s mission to maintain force preparedness through timely, compliant, and mission-critical procurements. Marilyn maintains a consistent working relationship with KPH Construction Corp as a primary contractor, reflecting a trusted partnership in delivering complex construction and engineering solutions. Her procurement patterns indicate a preference for established vendors with proven performance in infrastructure and technical services, while also engaging a range of qualified small businesses to meet set-aside requirements. She fosters collaborative vendor relationships grounded in compliance, performance accountability, and mission alignment, ensuring contractors deliver high-quality outcomes under stringent federal standards. Her contracting approach prioritizes non-set-aside acquisitions at 80%, with a deliberate 20% allocation to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. While she does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, her consistent small business participation demonstrates a structured commitment to socioeconomic goals without compromising mission needs. She balances regulatory compliance with operational urgency, ensuring small businesses contribute meaningfully to readiness objectives. Marilyn’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 237120 (Oil and Gas Pipeline and Related Structures Construction), 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction), 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), and 541330 (Engineering Services). She specializes in acquiring civil infrastructure, facility upgrades, and technical engineering support critical to Army training sites and operational bases, demonstrating deep expertise in construction project management and professional service contracting within defense environments.
