Shawna West

Shawna West serves as a key procurement professional within the W2SD Fest NAU1 Europe (W912GB), a U.S. Army installation support unit under the Department of Defense. She manages the acquisition of critical infrastructure and environmental services essential to sustaining and modernizing U.S. military installations across Europe. Her portfolio encompasses construction, engineering, and remediation contracts that directly support force readiness, garrison sustainability, and long-term mission capability. She handles full lifecycle contracting for complex, mission-critical projects requiring compliance with federal construction standards and environmental regulations, ensuring timely delivery of facilities and services that enable operational continuity in theater. West maintains consistent relationships with a core group of prime contractors, including AECOM International Inc., CMS Corporation, WSP Italia S.R.L., and Boh Environmental, L.L.C., all of which provide specialized expertise in civil works, institutional construction, and environmental remediation. Her contracting approach favors established, technically capable vendors with proven performance in European theater operations, emphasizing reliability, regulatory compliance, and integrated project delivery. These partnerships are typically structured as firm-fixed-price or cost-reimbursement contracts, reflecting the complexity and geographic constraints of overseas infrastructure programs. West’s procurement activity reflects a strong preference for unrestricted competition, with 100% of awards issued under no set-aside status. This indicates a strategic focus on maximizing technical capability and contractor capacity over socioeconomic set-asides, prioritizing mission-critical performance and scale over program-specific small business targets. While small business participation is not formally incentivized, she maintains open competition among all qualified vendors, including small firms, through broad market research and transparent solicitation practices. Her primary NAICS focus areas include All Other Specialty Trade Contractors (238990), Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (236220), and Remediation Services (562910), underscoring her expertise in facility modernization, structural upgrades, and environmental compliance. She routinely procures services involving site preparation, utility integration, hazardous material abatement, and civil engineering support, demonstrating deep domain knowledge in military infrastructure lifecycle management.
