Shamron Richardson

Shamron Richardson serves as a key procurement professional within the W07V Engineer District in St. Louis, operating under the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Department of the Army. Responsible for managing complex civil works and infrastructure acquisitions, Richardson oversees the full lifecycle of contracts supporting critical water resource management, navigation system rehabilitation, and environmental restoration projects. Their role is central to executing the agency’s mission of sustaining national infrastructure resilience through engineering solutions, with a focus on heavy civil construction activities that require precise technical oversight and regulatory compliance. Richardson routinely handles firm-fixed-price and cost-reimbursement contracts for large-scale public works, ensuring alignment with federal construction standards and environmental mandates. Richardson maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of specialized contractors, including FUGRO USA LAND, INC., BOWMAN CONSULTING GROUP LTD, AERO-GRAPHICS INC, NV5 GEOSPATIAL, INC., and SURVEYING AND MAPPING, LLC. These partnerships are built on long-term technical collaboration, primarily in geospatial surveying, hydrographic mapping, engineering design, and infrastructure assessment services. The working relationships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven expertise in advanced lidar, remote sensing, and civil engineering deliverables, indicating a reliance on high-precision, data-driven contract execution. Richardson’s procurement portfolio reflects a strict preference for open competition, with 100% of awards issued under no set-aside classifications. This indicates a focus on technical merit and capability over socioeconomic preferences, prioritizing the most qualified firms regardless of business size or certification status. While small business participation is not formally incentivized through set-asides, the agency’s contracting approach remains compliant with all federal acquisition regulations and emphasizes value-driven outcomes. The primary NAICS classification underpinning all acquisitions is 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction), reflecting an exclusive focus on large-scale infrastructure projects such as lock and dam rehabilitation, levee reinforcement, and channel stabilization. Procurements center on engineering services, construction management, and geospatial data collection—domains requiring deep expertise in federal civil works standards and environmental compliance frameworks.
