SSG Rajeev Shrestha

SSG Rajeev Shrestha serves as a key procurement specialist within the 0413 Aq Hq Rco-hi, operating under the Department of the Army’s Pacific regional command. Responsible for managing mission-enabling contracts that sustain Army installations, he ensures operational continuity through the acquisition of facility support services, environmental compliance solutions, and critical infrastructure maintenance. His portfolio focuses on securing essential services that underpin military readiness, including utilities, waste management, and telecommunications support. Shrestha plays a central role in executing acquisition strategies aligned with Army sustainability goals and regional operational demands, frequently managing task orders under IDIQ contracts and leveraging flexible contracting vehicles to respond to dynamic installation needs. He maintains longstanding relationships with core contractors including HAMASAKI CONSTRUCTION LLC, PHOENIX V LLC, SURECAN LLC, HONOLULU DISPOSAL SERVICE, INC., and PERRY MANAGEMENT CORP OF SOUTH DAKOTA, L.L.C., who consistently deliver facility operations, maintenance, and environmental services across the Pacific theater. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven regional expertise, particularly those capable of supporting complex, multi-site installations under stringent military standards. These partnerships are characterized by repeat engagements and performance-based contract structures that emphasize accountability and mission alignment. Shrestha’s procurement approach reflects a balanced commitment to socioeconomic objectives, with approximately half of his acquisitions set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5, while the other half remain open competition. This dual strategy ensures both broad market access and targeted support for small business participation, without favoring specific socioeconomic categories like 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, indicating a preference for size-based set-asides over identity-based programs. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 561210 (Facilities Support Services), encompassing groundskeeping, waste disposal, and facility maintenance, alongside NAICS 813110 (Religious Organizations), which reflects unique mission requirements for chaplaincy support and morale, welfare, and recreation (MWR) services on remote installations. This dual specialization underscores his expertise in procuring both conventional infrastructure services and niche, culturally sensitive support functions critical to garrison sustainability.
