Peter Smith

Peter Smith serves as a secondary procurement liaison within the W076 Endist Expedition (provis), supporting the Department of the Army’s mission to rapidly deploy and sustain mission-critical infrastructure in expeditionary and contested environments. Though not the primary contracting officer, he plays a vital role in coordinating acquisition planning, vendor outreach, and contract administration for construction and logistics-related procurements. His responsibilities include facilitating the execution of complex infrastructure projects—including military camps, training facilities, hangars, and utility systems—ensuring alignment with operational timelines and expeditionary requirements. He routinely handles acquisitions under FAR Part 36 and supports both firm-fixed-price and cost-reimbursement contract types, with a focus on speed, durability, and operational readiness. Smith maintains consistent working relationships with ZANA GROUP COMPANY FOR GENERAL CONTRACTS, a primary contractor for turnkey construction and field infrastructure deployment, alongside undisclosed foreign awardees involved in specialized logistics and rapid-build solutions. His procurement approach favors established vendors with proven experience in austere-environment construction, emphasizing performance-based contracting and strict compliance with military engineering standards. Vendor partnerships are typically long-term, with repeat engagements driven by mission continuity and proven reliability under high-tempo conditions. His procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 96.3% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions. Small business participation is minimal, accounting for only 3.7% of awards, primarily through Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, with no discernible emphasis on 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. The agency’s procurement focus centers on NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and 532112 (Passenger Car Leasing), reflecting a dual emphasis on facility construction and mobility support. Prefabricated metal structures (332311) and security services (561612) are also routinely procured, underscoring expertise in modular, rapidly deployable infrastructure and force protection systems.
