Peter M. Van Remmen

Peter M. Van Remmen serves as a key procurement professional within the Department of the Air Force’s FA2860 316 Cons Pk facility at Joint Base Andrews, where he oversees acquisitions critical to sustaining mission-critical infrastructure and operational readiness. His responsibilities center on managing contracts for civil engineering and construction services that support the base’s physical resilience and mission continuity. Van Remmen specializes in high-priority infrastructure projects involving highway, street, and bridge construction, ensuring compliance with Department of Defense standards for durability, safety, and environmental stewardship. He plays a pivotal role in aligning procurement activities with the Air Force’s broader objectives for base sustainment and force protection. Van Remmen maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors including ZERO WASTE SOLUTIONS, INC, SENECA MINERAL COMPANY, and PELICAN CHEMICALS INC., all of whom provide specialized materials and services essential to large-scale civil works projects. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in geotechnical engineering, hazardous material remediation, and infrastructure-grade construction inputs. His contracting approach emphasizes reliability, regulatory compliance, and long-term performance over price alone, fostering stable vendor relationships built on technical competency and adherence to federal construction codes. A defining feature of Van Remmen’s procurement strategy is his exclusive use of Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-asides, reflecting a deep institutional commitment to socioeconomic equity and veteran workforce integration. Every contract he manages is structured to prioritize SDVOSB eligibility, ensuring that small businesses owned by veterans with service-connected disabilities have equitable access to federal construction opportunities. His primary technical domain is NAICS 237310—Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction—where he procures specialized services such as pavement rehabilitation, drainage system upgrades, structural concrete work, and erosion control. His expertise lies in managing complex civil construction contracts that support the operational integrity of military installations, with a focus on resilience, longevity, and compliance with federal and military engineering specifications.
