Ronald Arbour

Ronald P. Arbour III serves as a key procurement professional within the W075 Endist Sacramento office under the Department of the Army, overseeing the acquisition of critical infrastructure and installation support services across the Western United States. His responsibilities center on managing contracts that sustain and modernize military facilities, ensuring operational readiness through construction, environmental compliance, and lifecycle management of Army land assets. He handles complex acquisitions under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, primarily in heavy civil engineering and facility construction domains, aligning with the agency’s strategic priorities of resilient infrastructure and regulatory adherence. Arbour maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors, including Mckenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, Far West Contractors Corp, and Aleut Construction LLC, all of which have demonstrated proven capacity in delivering large-scale, mission-critical construction and site development services. His procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships grounded in performance reliability and compliance with federal construction standards, fostering a stable contractor base capable of executing geographically dispersed and environmentally sensitive projects across diverse terrains. A strong advocate for small business participation, Arbour consistently structures procurements with a 57.1% preference for Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a deliberate commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals. His portfolio regularly channels opportunities to small businesses, including those certified under HUBZone and SDVOSB programs, ensuring broad vendor engagement while maintaining competitive rigor in high-stakes infrastructure acquisitions. His technical focus lies primarily in NAICS 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction), with significant activity in commercial and industrial building construction (236220, 236210) and supporting engineering services (541330, 541360). This reflects deep expertise in site preparation, earthwork, utility relocation, and geospatial surveying—core competencies required to support the Army’s enduring infrastructure modernization mission.
