Rick W. Phillips

Rick W. Phillips serves as a key procurement lead within Navfacsyscom Southwest, responsible for managing complex construction, environmental remediation, and infrastructure modernization contracts that support naval installation readiness across the Southwest region. His role centers on executing mission-critical acquisitions aligned with the Department of the Navy’s strategic priorities, including facility sustainment, utility system upgrades, and environmental compliance initiatives. He oversees the full lifecycle of contract awards—from solicitation through performance management—ensuring adherence to federal acquisition regulations and operational timelines for high-priority military infrastructure projects. Phillips maintains longstanding relationships with a core group of prime 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 experienced, full-service firms capable of delivering integrated solutions in civil works, hazardous material abatement, site development, and environmental restoration. His contracting patterns indicate a reliance on established contractors with proven technical capacity and regional expertise, often selected through competitive sealed bidding or negotiated procurement methods. Phillips’ procurement portfolio reflects a strict preference for full and open competition, with 100% of awards issued under no set-aside classifications. This approach signals a focus on technical merit, performance history, and operational urgency over socioeconomic categorizations, though it does not preclude small business participation where competitive and compliant. His contracting patterns prioritize capability and readiness over socioeconomic targets, aligning with the agency’s emphasis on mission-critical delivery timelines. His technical domain centers on construction, environmental services, and infrastructure resilience, with acquisitions spanning facility construction, utility system upgrades, hazardous waste remediation, and energy efficiency retrofits. While specific NAICS codes are not available, his portfolio consistently engages contractors with expertise in civil engineering, environmental compliance, and military-grade construction standards, demonstrating deep familiarity with DoD facility requirements and sustainability mandates.
