Teresa Rogofsky

Teresa Rogofsky serves as a key procurement professional within the Pacific Northwest Region (PN 6615) of the Bureau of Reclamation, overseeing the acquisition of critical civil infrastructure projects essential to the agency’s mission of maintaining safe, reliable, and sustainable water resource systems. She manages a portfolio of complex construction and engineering contracts involving dams, canals, hydropower facilities, and shoreline protection structures, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and technical standards for federal civil works. Her role is central to translating regional infrastructure needs into competitively awarded contracts that uphold safety, environmental stewardship, and long-term operational resilience. Rogofsky maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of specialized contractors, including Palouse Power LLC, McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, DJ&A, P.C., and Inter-Fluve, Inc.—firms with demonstrated expertise in heavy civil construction, hydraulic engineering, and environmental remediation. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven experience in federal water infrastructure, often involving long-term performance-based agreements and technical collaboration on design-build and construction management approaches. Her contracting approach emphasizes contractor reliability, technical competence, and adherence to federal environmental and safety protocols. Her procurement strategy reflects an even split between open competition and Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a strong institutional commitment to expanding opportunities for small businesses in the civil engineering sector. She consistently prioritizes socioeconomic programs that foster broad vendor participation without relying on targeted set-asides like 8(a) or HUBZone, instead favoring unrestricted small business opportunities that promote competitive pricing and innovation. Her primary focus lies in NAICS 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction), encompassing large-scale earthwork, concrete structures, hydraulic systems, and aquatic habitat restoration. She procures services ranging from dam rehabilitation and canal lining to hydroelectric plant upgrades and erosion control, requiring deep technical knowledge of federal water project standards and construction methodologies.
