Robert Norris

Robert Norris serves as a key procurement lead within the W076 Endist Tulsa office under the Department of the Army, overseeing the acquisition of civil engineering, facility maintenance, and environmental services critical to sustaining Army installations and public lands. He manages a diverse portfolio of contracts aligned with the agency’s mission to modernize infrastructure, ensure regulatory compliance, and deliver operational readiness through heavy construction and land stewardship. His acquisitions routinely involve commercial and institutional building construction, landscaping, and heavy civil engineering projects, requiring deep technical knowledge of federal construction standards, environmental regulations, and facility sustainment protocols. Norris maintains established working relationships with a core group of prime contractors including BL Harbert International LLC, McMillen, Inc., Alberici Constructors Inc., McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, and Perikin Enterprises LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced firms capable of executing complex, multi-year infrastructure projects under strict military and environmental compliance frameworks. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, robust quality control, and long-term vendor reliability, fostering stable, results-driven collaborations across the construction and environmental services sectors. A strong advocate for small business participation, Norris consistently prioritizes socioeconomic set-asides, with over 55% of his acquisitions designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. He also regularly utilizes 8(a) competed contracts and occasionally structures awards for service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, reflecting a deliberate strategy to broaden vendor diversity and enhance community economic resilience while maintaining mission-critical delivery standards. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and 561730 (Landscaping Services), with additional activity in other heavy civil engineering and boat building categories. This specialization underscores his expertise in managing facility upgrades, grounds maintenance, and infrastructure resilience projects that support both military readiness and environmental stewardship across Army-managed lands.
