Maurice Barbour

Maurice Barbour serves as a key procurement lead within the W6QM Micc-ft Riley under the Department of the Army’s W911RX organization, responsible for managing facility sustainment and infrastructure support contracts critical to Army base operability. He oversees the acquisition of commercial and institutional building construction services essential to maintaining secure, functional, and habitable military installations. His portfolio centers on mission-critical construction projects that ensure the readiness of Army facilities, including renovations, repairs, and new construction of barracks, administrative buildings, and support infrastructure. Barbour’s work directly enables the agency’s mandate to deliver reliable, long-term facilities services that sustain Army readiness across the continental United States and overseas installations. Barbour maintains a concentrated contracting relationship with CHENEGA BASE & LOGISTICS SERVICES LLC, the primary contractor for construction and facility maintenance services under his purview. His procurement approach emphasizes long-term performance-based partnerships with a single dominant vendor, ensuring continuity in quality, compliance, and operational alignment with Army installation standards. While other contractors are occasionally engaged, the overwhelming majority of work flows through this core relationship, reflecting a strategic preference for proven, integrated service delivery rather than fragmented vendor competition. Barbour’s contracting activity is entirely focused on 8(a) competed set-asides, demonstrating a robust and consistent commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals. Every award is structured to promote small business development under the SBA’s 8(a) Business Development Program, ensuring that disadvantaged small businesses gain meaningful access to federal construction opportunities. This pattern underscores a deliberate institutional alignment with federal small business mandates and a strategic effort to build capacity within the 8(a) contractor community serving military infrastructure needs. His procurement domain is exclusively centered on NAICS 236220—Commercial and Institutional Building Construction—reflecting deep technical expertise in facility construction, renovation, and maintenance for government-owned installations. He procures turnkey construction services including structural work, HVAC integration, electrical systems, plumbing, and compliance with military construction codes, ensuring all projects meet Army Corps of Engineers and DoD standards for durability, safety, and mission continuity.
