Shawn Adkins

Shawn Adkins serves as a secondary procurement contact within the W076 Endist Tulsa office under the Department of the Army, supporting the agency’s mission to sustain and modernize critical military infrastructure. While not the primary contracting officer, Adkins plays a vital role in facilitating acquisition planning, contract administration, and vendor coordination for civil engineering and facility operations projects. Their responsibilities include managing the lifecycle of construction and maintenance contracts, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations, and aligning procurements with the Army’s infrastructure modernization priorities, particularly in facility operations, environmental stewardship, and heavy civil construction. Adkins maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including BL Harbert International LLC, Mckenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, Alberici Constructors Inc., McMullen, Inc., and Perikin Enterprises LLC. These partnerships are characterized by long-term engagement on complex, multi-year projects requiring specialized expertise in commercial and institutional construction, water and sewer infrastructure, and site development. The contractor relationships reflect a preference for established firms with proven track records in delivering high-compliance, mission-critical infrastructure solutions across Army installations. Set-aside preferences reveal a strong emphasis on open competition, with 71.8% of acquisitions conducted without set-asides. However, Adkins actively supports small business participation, with 23.1% of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 and an additional 5.1% allocated to 8(a) competed contracts, demonstrating a balanced approach to competition and socioeconomic goals. The procurement portfolio is heavily concentrated in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), reflecting a primary focus on facility maintenance, renovation, and new construction. Secondary areas include other heavy civil engineering construction, engineering services, water and sewer infrastructure, and landscaping services, underscoring expertise in integrated infrastructure delivery across military and public lands.
