Samson Mai

Samson Y. Mai serves as a key procurement professional within Navfacsyscom Southwest, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to sustain and modernize critical infrastructure across the Southwest region. Responsible for managing acquisition strategies for facility support and construction services, Mai oversees contracts that ensure operational readiness through resilient building systems, utility upgrades, and environmental compliance initiatives. Their work centers on the full lifecycle of military facility infrastructure, from planning and design to maintenance and modernization, with a focus on delivering mission-critical capabilities under FAR-compliant procedures. Mai routinely handles complex, multi-year service and construction acquisitions requiring technical coordination between engineering, environmental, and facilities management teams. Mai maintains consistent working relationships with a core 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 reflect a preference for experienced, full-service vendors capable of delivering integrated facilities support, environmental remediation, and institutional construction services. The contracting pattern emphasizes performance-based outcomes, with a focus on contractors possessing proven track records in DoD environments and deep expertise in naval installation requirements. While the majority of procurements (71.4%) are conducted as unrestricted, Mai actively promotes small business participation through targeted set-asides, with 14.3% of awards designated for Total Small Business and another 14.3% for 8(a) competed contracts. This balanced approach reflects a deliberate strategy to foster competition while ensuring access for socioeconomically disadvantaged firms, aligning with DoD small business goals without compromising mission-critical delivery timelines. The procurement portfolio is heavily concentrated in NAICS 561210 (Facilities Support Services), reflecting a core focus on maintenance, operations, and lifecycle management of military facilities. Additional emphasis is placed on NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), underscoring technical expertise in integrated building systems and infrastructure modernization. Janitorial services (NAICS 561720) round out the portfolio, supporting daily operational readiness across naval installations.
