Rea D. Estrella

Rea Estrella serves as a key procurement professional within Navfacsyscom Southwest, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to deliver resilient infrastructure for naval installations across the Southwest region. Responsible for managing acquisition strategies for facility sustainment and utility modernization, Estrella oversees contracts critical to operational readiness, including construction support, environmental compliance, and infrastructure leasing. Their work directly enables the agency’s priorities in maintaining aging facilities while advancing energy and water efficiency initiatives through timely, compliant contracting practices. Estrella maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, RSI AMENTUM ENVIRONMENTAL SOLUTIONS, L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED, KIEWIT INFRASTRUCTURE WEST CO., and Boh Environmental, L.L.C. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with proven expertise in military-grade construction, environmental remediation, and heavy equipment logistics. The contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, long-term vendor reliability, and adherence to federal construction and environmental standards. There is no set-aside preference in Estrella’s procurement portfolio; all acquisitions are conducted as full and open competitions. This reflects a strategic focus on maximizing competition among qualified vendors rather than socioeconomic set-asides, ensuring the highest technical capability and value for mission-critical infrastructure projects. Estrella’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 532412 (Construction, Mining, and Forestry Machinery and Equipment Rental and Leasing) and NAICS 561730 (Landscaping Services), indicating deep specialization in temporary equipment mobilization, site preparation, and landscape management for military installations. These categories support the agency’s need for flexible, scalable resources to maintain grounds, manage stormwater infrastructure, and deploy heavy machinery for construction and maintenance operations across diverse terrains and climates.
