Oweita A. Freeman

Oweita A. Freeman serves as a key procurement professional within the W074 Endist Savannah office of the Department of the Army, responsible for managing complex civil engineering and infrastructure modernization contracts critical to Army installation readiness. Her role centers on executing acquisitions under the Army Corps of Engineers’ civil works mission, ensuring compliance with federal contracting regulations while advancing strategic infrastructure resilience. She routinely oversees the solicitation and award of construction and remediation contracts involving heavy civil works, environmental restoration, and utility system upgrades, aligning procurements with the Army’s long-term facility sustainment and environmental stewardship goals. Freeman maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced joint ventures and specialty contractors, including SHERLOCK, SMITH & ADAMS INC., BLAIR REMY MERRICK MP JOINT VENTURE, LLC, and GURRI MATUTE CROMWELL JV LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established, multi-disciplinary teams capable of delivering integrated solutions in heavy civil engineering, site remediation, and institutional construction. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting, rigorous technical evaluation, and vendor accountability to ensure mission-critical outcomes. Her contracting patterns demonstrate a strong commitment to socioeconomic diversity, with nearly 50% of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 and over 15% reserved for HUBZone firms. Service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses also receive targeted consideration, reflecting a deliberate strategy to expand opportunities for disadvantaged and veteran-led enterprises while maintaining competitive rigor. The majority of her acquisitions fall under NAICS 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction), with significant activity in infrastructure rehabilitation, earthwork, and non-structural site development. She also procures specialty trade services under NAICS 238990 and select water and sewer construction projects, demonstrating deep technical expertise in civil infrastructure lifecycle management and environmental compliance systems.
