Terra Warren

Terra Clarke serves as a key procurement lead within the Upper Colorado Regional Office of the Bureau of Reclamation, where she manages the acquisition of specialized environmental and civil engineering services critical to the agency’s water infrastructure and ecological restoration mission. Her responsibilities include planning, soliciting, and awarding contracts that support water management, hydraulic structure maintenance, and habitat resilience initiatives across the Upper Colorado River Basin. Clarke focuses exclusively on professional services acquisitions, particularly those requiring technical expertise in hydrology, environmental assessment, and sustainable water systems design, ensuring alignment with federal mandates for environmental stewardship and infrastructure modernization. She maintains long-standing partnerships with a select group of specialized contractors, including AMES FEDERAL CONTRACTING GROUP LLC, SOUTHWEST WATER DESIGN, L.L.C., RIVERRESTORATION.ORG, LLC, PACIFIC OVERHEAD CRANE SERVICES INC., and ROBINS CONSTRUCTION, LLLP. These vendors are consistently selected for their demonstrated capability in delivering complex environmental consulting, water resource engineering, and infrastructure support services. Clarke’s procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and technical qualification, fostering collaborative relationships with firms that bring niche expertise in riverine systems, sediment management, and ecological monitoring. Clarke’s acquisition portfolio is entirely set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5, reflecting a firm commitment to socioeconomic diversity and small business participation. All contracts are awarded exclusively to small business concerns, with no set-asides reserved for other categories such as 8(a) or HUBZone, indicating a broad-based preference for qualified small firms regardless of specific certification, as long as they meet size standards and technical requirements. Her procurement activity is concentrated entirely under NAICS 541620 (Environmental Consulting Services), underscoring a deep specialization in environmental assessment, water quality analysis, ecological restoration planning, and compliance-driven consulting. She procures services related to environmental impact studies, hydrologic modeling, stream restoration design, and regulatory permitting support, demonstrating advanced domain expertise in the intersection of water resource management and environmental compliance.
