Shirley Hooker

Shirley Hooker serves as a Contract Specialist for W074 Endist Mobile under the Department of the Army, where she manages the acquisition of critical infrastructure and facility support services essential to military operational readiness. Her portfolio encompasses large-scale construction, engineering, and environmental remediation contracts aligned with the Army’s civil works and installation modernization mission. She specializes in full lifecycle contract management—from solicitation and source selection to award and closeout—ensuring compliance with FAR and DFARS requirements while delivering mission-critical outcomes across military installations nationwide. Hooker maintains established relationships with key contractors including ARELI, INC., THE ROBINS & MORTON GROUP, J & J MAINTENANCE INC, ROYCE CONSTRUCTION SERVICES, LLC, and VALIANT CONSTRUCTION LLC, reflecting a preference for experienced, high-performing firms with proven capabilities in heavy civil engineering and institutional construction. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear deliverables, and rigorous contractor accountability, fostering long-term partnerships grounded in reliability and technical proficiency. While the majority of her acquisitions are unrestricted, she consistently allocates 25% of her portfolio to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to expanding small business participation without reliance on specialized socioeconomic programs such as 8(a) or HUBZone. Her procurement strategy balances broad competition with targeted opportunities for qualified small businesses in core mission areas. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services), reflecting deep expertise in design, planning, and technical oversight for military infrastructure. She also regularly procures janitorial services (561720), elevator manufacturing (333921), power transformer systems (335311), and specialized marine equipment (441222), indicating a diverse yet mission-aligned technical domain spanning facility operations, energy systems, and installation support services.
