Roger D Williams

Roger D. Williams serves as a key procurement lead within the W2SN Endist Alaska office under the Department of the Army, responsible for managing civil engineering and environmental infrastructure acquisitions critical to sustaining military operations in Alaska’s extreme and remote environments. His role centers on executing contracts for heavy civil construction, environmental remediation, and facility sustainment projects that ensure operational readiness and long-term base resilience. He oversees the full lifecycle of complex procurements under FAR Part 36, with a focus on design-build, construction management, and integrated environmental services tailored to austere Arctic conditions. Williams maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of specialized contractors, including Environmental Compliance Consultants, Inc., WSP USA Solutions Inc., R & M Consultants, Inc., and McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with proven expertise in cold-weather engineering, hazardous material remediation, and geotechnical site development. His contracting approach emphasizes long-term vendor collaboration, technical proficiency in extreme climate construction, and compliance with federal environmental regulations such as NEPA and RCRA. His procurement portfolio reflects a strong emphasis on open competition, with approximately 70% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions. However, he actively supports small business participation, allocating nearly 30% of contracts to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, including a targeted 2.7% dedicated to Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses. This pattern demonstrates a balanced commitment to both competition and socioeconomic goals. Williams’ primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction), followed by remediation services (562910) and environmental consulting (541620). He consistently acquires services involving infrastructure modernization, permafrost-adapted foundations, soil stabilization, and compliance-driven site remediation, underscoring deep technical expertise in military civil engineering and environmental stewardship in polar regions.
