Ryan Lastrella

Ryan Lastrella serves as a key procurement lead within Navfacsyscom Southwest, responsible for managing construction and infrastructure contracts critical to sustaining naval installations across the Southwest region. He specializes in the acquisition of electrical systems and wiring infrastructure, ensuring compliance with Department of the Navy standards for operational readiness, energy resilience, and environmental sustainability. His portfolio is exclusively focused on facility modernization projects, with a strong emphasis on mission-critical utility upgrades and new construction under the Federal Acquisition Regulation. Lastrella’s work directly supports the agency’s mandate to maintain and enhance the physical readiness of military bases through timely, compliant, and technically rigorous contracting. He maintains consistent working relationships with a select 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 are characterized by long-term collaboration on complex electrical and infrastructure projects, often involving integrated design-build delivery methods and performance-based specifications. Lastrella prioritizes contractors with proven experience in military facility environments and demonstrated capacity to meet stringent safety, security, and environmental compliance requirements. Lastrella’s procurement strategy is fully aligned with a 100% Small Business Set-Aside mandate under FAR 19.5, reflecting a deliberate and sustained commitment to socioeconomic contracting. All electrical contracting opportunities are reserved exclusively for small businesses, ensuring equitable access to federal construction work and fostering regional economic development. This approach supports the Department of the Navy’s broader goals of vendor diversification and resilience in the defense industrial base. His technical expertise is narrowly focused on NAICS 238210—Electrical Contractors and Other Wiring Installation Contractors—encompassing the procurement of power distribution systems, lighting retrofits, emergency backup wiring, and low-voltage communications infrastructure. He ensures all acquisitions adhere to military specifications and NFPA standards, with a clear emphasis on reliability, scalability, and future-proofing of naval facility electrical systems.
