Noah Diehl

Noah Diehl serves as Deputy Civil Engineer at Forbes Field under the U.S. Army’s W7M9 Uspfo Activity KS ARNG, where he plays a pivotal role in advancing military infrastructure readiness through strategic acquisition and oversight of construction and facility sustainment programs. Responsible for planning, coordinating, and executing civil engineering projects, Diehl ensures that commercial and institutional facilities meet operational requirements for training and mission support. His procurement activities center on design-build, construction management, and renovation contracts that align with Army installation standards and force modernization goals, directly supporting the agency’s mission to maintain durable, mission-critical infrastructure. While specific contractor names are not publicly disclosed, Diehl maintains collaborative relationships with a diverse pool of construction firms, architectural practices, and engineering consultants, many of whom hold specialized certifications for federal work. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for integrated project delivery methods and performance-based service contracts, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in quality assurance, compliance with UFC standards, and timely delivery of facility upgrades. Diehl demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with 88.9% of his acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize opportunities for small businesses, including 8(a), HUBZone, and SDVOSB firms, ensuring broad participation across the construction supply chain while promoting economic resilience in local communities. His technical focus lies primarily in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), where he procures new construction, renovations, and infrastructure upgrades for barracks, training centers, and support facilities. He also oversees architectural services under NAICS 541310, ensuring designs comply with military safety, accessibility, and sustainability mandates. Diehl’s expertise spans building systems integration, code compliance, and lifecycle cost analysis, positioning him as a key technical authority in Army facility acquisition.
