Maurice Muse

Maurice Muse serves as a key procurement professional within Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Mid-Atlantic (NAVFACSYSCOM Mid-Atlantic), supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to deliver resilient, mission-critical infrastructure across Navy and Marine Corps installations in the Mid-Atlantic region. He manages a diverse portfolio of construction and professional services contracts, focusing on the planning, design, and execution of facilities that sustain operational readiness. His acquisitions primarily involve complex, high-stakes civil works projects requiring coordination across multiple technical disciplines, with an emphasis on modernizing aging infrastructure and ensuring compliance with environmental and safety standards. Muse routinely engages with established general contractors and joint ventures experienced in federal construction, including RYAN CONSTRUCTION CO INC, WEEKS-CASHMAN JV, APPLEDORE MARINE - CH2M JV, W. M. JORDAN COMPANY, INCORPORATED, and MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for contractors with proven track records in delivering institutional, commercial, and utility-scale projects under stringent federal oversight. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous contract administration, and collaboration with design-build and construction management at-risk delivery methods. A strong advocate for socioeconomic opportunity, Muse consistently prioritizes 8(a) competed set-asides, which account for over half of his award activity, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to small business development within the federal construction sector. He also regularly utilizes total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, fostering a contracting environment that encourages participation from disadvantaged and emerging firms while maintaining high standards of technical capability. His procurement focus is overwhelmingly centered on NAICS 236220—Commercial and Institutional Building Construction—reflecting deep expertise in the delivery of barracks, administrative facilities, training centers, and other mission-support structures. He also oversees related work in water and sewer infrastructure, plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning systems, as well as professional engineering services, underscoring a comprehensive understanding of the full lifecycle of military facility development.
