Tanya Warden serves as a Contracting Officer for the W074 Endist Charleston under the Department of the Army, responsible for managing the acquisition of critical civil engineering and facilities support services essential to Army readiness across the southeastern United States. She oversees the full lifecycle of procurement actions for infrastructure sustainment, including construction, maintenance, and modernization of military installations such as barracks, command centers, child development facilities, and coastal defense systems. Her portfolio emphasizes mission-critical civil works contracts aligned with the Army’s strategic priorities in resilience and operational readiness, utilizing FAR-based acquisition methods to ensure compliance, efficiency, and mission alignment. Warden maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including CORRPRO COMPANIES, INC., BRYMAK & ASSOCIATES, INC., CHANDLER CONSTRUCTION SERVICES, INC., SOUTHERN DREDGING CO INC, and COTTRELL CONTRACTING CORPORATION. These partnerships reflect a preference for established firms with proven expertise in military facility support, environmental remediation, dredging, and heavy civil construction. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous oversight, and long-term vendor reliability, fostering collaborative relationships grounded in technical competence and regulatory compliance. A strong advocate for small business participation, Warden consistently structures procurements to maximize small business set-asides, with approximately two-thirds of her awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. Her contracting patterns reflect a deliberate commitment to socioeconomic goals, prioritizing opportunities for small disadvantaged businesses and other eligible entities while maintaining rigorous performance standards. This pattern underscores her alignment with Department of Defense mandates to enhance small business access to federal contracts. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 561210 (Facilities Support Services), which accounts for nearly 90% of her portfolio, encompassing maintenance, operations, and technical support for military infrastructure. The remaining 10% falls under NAICS 541990, covering specialized professional services such as environmental consulting and engineering design. Warden’s expertise centers on complex, mission-critical facilities support requiring coordination across multiple technical domains, ensuring that Army installations remain operational, compliant, and resilient.
