Robbie Bailey

Robbie Bailey serves as a key procurement lead within the W07V Endist New Orleans office of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, managing complex civil works acquisitions critical to Gulf Coast infrastructure resilience. Responsible for overseeing the planning and execution of contracts for flood risk reduction, coastal restoration, and water resource management systems, Bailey handles large-scale engineering, construction, and environmental services procurements aligned with the Army’s civil works mission. Their portfolio primarily involves design-build, construction, and dredging contracts requiring strict adherence to federal environmental regulations and hydraulic engineering standards. Bailey maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of specialized contractors including WEEKS MARINE, INC., PRECISION CONSTRUCTION LLC, M.R. PITTMAN GROUP, L.L.C, MUDDY WATER DREDGING, LP, and RED BISON SERVICES, LLC. These partnerships reflect a focus on firms with proven expertise in marine construction, sediment management, and large-scale earthmoving operations. The working relationship pattern is characterized by repeat engagements, performance-based contract management, and a preference for contractors with established track records in complex aquatic environments and federal compliance frameworks. While the majority of acquisitions (80%) are conducted without set-asides, Bailey consistently allocates 20% of opportunities to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to small business participation without prioritizing specific socioeconomic categories like 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. This approach balances mission-critical delivery with broad-based small business engagement. The procurement focus centers on NAICS 221310 (Water Supply and Irrigation Systems), 336999 (All Other Transportation Equipment Manufacturing), 541620 (Environmental Consulting Services), and two ambulatory health care categories—621111 and 621999—reflecting a unique integration of civil infrastructure and ancillary health support services for project personnel in remote or hazardous environments. Bailey’s expertise lies in coordinating multidisciplinary contracts that merge hydraulic engineering, environmental compliance, and logistical support for mission-critical water resource projects.
