Oksana Strekha

Oksana Strekha serves as a Contract Specialist within W2SD Endist Europe, a critical element of the Department of the Army’s overseas infrastructure modernization mission. She manages the full lifecycle of complex construction and facility support acquisitions, ensuring timely delivery of mission-critical infrastructure such as barracks, security perimeters, nursing homes, and air station enhancements across Europe. Her expertise spans solicitation development, source selection, contract negotiation, and performance monitoring under FAR and DFARS guidelines, with a focus on high-stakes, mission-sustaining projects that directly impact garrison readiness and quality of life for deployed personnel. Strekha maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of prime contractors, including AECOM International Inc., CMS Corporation, WSP Italia S.r.l., and Boh Environmental, L.L.C., who provide engineering, construction, and environmental services. These partnerships are characterized by long-term collaboration on multi-year, performance-based contracts requiring rigorous technical oversight and compliance with international construction standards. Her procurement approach emphasizes contractor reliability, past performance, and technical capability, particularly in delivering complex civil and institutional projects under austere conditions. Her contracting patterns reflect a balanced approach to socioeconomic goals, with approximately one-third of awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for small business contractors. While the majority of acquisitions are unrestricted, she actively promotes small business participation through targeted solicitation design and pre-solicitation outreach, aligning with Army-wide objectives for equitable access to defense contracting. Strekha’s primary procurement focus lies in heavy civil engineering (NAICS 237990) and commercial/institutional building construction (NAICS 236220), with additional activity in specialty trade contracting and facility support services. Her domain expertise includes infrastructure resilience, military construction standards, and environmental compliance, ensuring that all acquisitions meet the Army’s stringent operational and sustainability requirements in overseas theater environments.
