Tracy Gamble

Tracy Gamble serves as a key procurement lead for the Construction A/E Team 1 within the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, overseeing the acquisition of infrastructure services critical to national wildlife refuges and fish hatcheries. Responsible for managing design-build and construction-related contracts, Gamble ensures that facility upgrades align with conservation objectives, including water system modernization, public access improvements, and resilient facility operations. Their portfolio primarily encompasses commercial and institutional building construction, heavy civil engineering, and environmental consulting services, supporting the agency’s mission to protect wildlife habitats while maintaining safe, functional public infrastructure. Gamble maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including Global Engineering Services Inc., McKenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, ATZ Solutions LLC, and Peak Engineering LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with proven expertise in ecological compliance, site-specific civil works, and refuge-specific construction challenges. The working relationships are characterized by repeat engagements and collaborative pre-solicitation outreach, ensuring technical alignment with FWS operational needs and environmental regulatory requirements. Set-aside preferences indicate a strong commitment to small business participation, with 31.6% of acquisitions designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. While the majority of contracts remain open to all competitors, Gamble actively promotes equitable access for small businesses through targeted solicitation strategies and early vendor engagement, fostering a competitive landscape that supports socioeconomic goals without compromising technical rigor. The primary NAICS focus areas center on Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (236220), followed by Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction (237990) and Environmental Consulting Services (541620). Gamble’s expertise lies in procuring integrated solutions that combine structural upgrades with ecological mitigation, water management systems, and habitat-access infrastructure, requiring deep familiarity with federal environmental standards and construction best practices for sensitive natural areas.
