Shigenori Wada

Shigenori Wada supports the procurement mission of Navfacsyscom Far East by managing critical infrastructure contracts that ensure operational readiness across U.S. Navy and Marine Corps installations in the Indo-Pacific. He oversees the acquisition of facility construction, utility modernization, and base operating support services, with a focus on delivering resilient, mission-critical infrastructure under stringent environmental and energy standards. His portfolio includes complex, multi-disciplinary projects requiring coordination between engineering, environmental compliance, and facility sustainment teams, ensuring that construction and maintenance activities align with DoD resilience priorities and forward-deployed force requirements. Wada maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including KANAGAWA NABCO PTY. LTD., MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, and PAE DESIGN AND FACILITY MANAGEMENT, who provide specialized expertise in commercial construction, facility operations, and environmental services. He frequently engages contractors with proven track records in high-tempo, geographically dispersed environments, prioritizing vendors with regional experience and demonstrated capacity to meet Navy standards for quality, safety, and schedule adherence. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and long-term contractor reliability over short-term cost savings. Wada’s procurement activity is entirely classified under “No Set-Aside,” reflecting a strategic focus on full and open competition to ensure access to the broadest possible pool of qualified vendors. While socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB are not formally utilized in his portfolio, this reflects the nature of the complex, large-scale infrastructure work rather than a lack of small business engagement, as many of the contractors he works with include small business subs or joint ventures. His primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), and 238210 (Electrical Contractors), indicating deep expertise in mechanical, electrical, and structural systems integration for military facilities. He also regularly procures environmental services and industrial equipment maintenance under NAICS 562111 and 811310, underscoring his technical command over integrated facility sustainment and utility infrastructure modernization.
