Nathan Larsen

Nathan Larsen serves as a key procurement lead within the 0906 Aq Co Det A Contracti, a U.S. Army unit responsible for sustaining and modernizing critical infrastructure at overseas garrisons in South Korea. He manages a portfolio of construction, utilities, and site development contracts essential to maintaining troop readiness and installation operational resilience. His acquisitions focus on mission-critical civil engineering services, including facility repairs, utility system upgrades, and earthwork operations that support long-term garrison sustainability. Larsen operates within the Department of the Army’s broader infrastructure modernization strategy, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurements with strategic readiness objectives. He maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors specializing in heavy construction and mineral resource extraction, including MAEK POONG CO., LTD, HANBAEK CONSTRUCTION CO., LTD, MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, THYMOS INC., and YUIL ENG. & CONST. CO., LTD. These partnerships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven experience in overseas military construction environments, particularly those capable of mobilizing rapidly and managing complex logistics in austere conditions. Larsen’s contracting approach prioritizes reliability, performance history, and compliance with DoD standards over frequent vendor rotation. Larsen’s procurement portfolio reflects no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This indicates a focus on mission-critical timelines and technical capability over socioeconomic contracting mechanisms, aligning with the urgent nature of overseas infrastructure sustainment. While small business participation is not formally prioritized, vendors must still meet stringent qualification and performance benchmarks to secure awards. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 212319 (Other Crushed and Broken Stone Mining and Quarrying) and 221310 (Water Supply and Irrigation Systems), reflecting deep expertise in aggregate sourcing, site grading, and potable water infrastructure development. He routinely procures heavy construction materials, earthmoving services, and utility system installations—domains requiring specialized engineering oversight and adherence to military environmental and safety standards.
