Tristin N. Suetsugu

Tristin N. Suetsugu serves as a key procurement professional within the W2SN Endist Honolulu, part of the Department of the Army’s Civil Engineering Directorate, responsible for managing construction and engineering acquisitions critical to sustaining military infrastructure across Hawaii. Their role centers on executing full-cycle contracting for base modernization projects, including facility construction, utilities upgrades, and civil engineering works essential to force readiness. Suetsugu handles complex, multi-year contracts under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, ensuring compliance with military construction standards and environmental resilience requirements. Their portfolio primarily supports garrison operations, training area enhancements, and critical infrastructure renewal across Army installations in the Pacific region. Suetsugu maintains a strong, ongoing working relationship with CONTI FEDERAL SERVICES, LLC, a primary contractor for large-scale commercial and institutional construction and heavy civil engineering projects. This partnership reflects a pattern of sustained collaboration with a single, high-capacity vendor capable of delivering integrated design-build and construction management services under tight operational timelines. While CONTI Federal is the dominant contractor, Suetsugu also engages with a broader network of specialized engineering and construction firms to meet diverse project needs, emphasizing performance-based outcomes and contractor accountability. Set-aside preferences are heavily skewed toward open competition, with 90% of acquisitions awarded without socioeconomic set-asides, reflecting a focus on technical capability and mission urgency. However, a consistent 10% of awards are reserved for Women-Owned Small Businesses, demonstrating a targeted commitment to diversifying the contractor base while maintaining rigorous standards for delivery and quality. Suetsugu’s procurement focus is dominated by NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and 541330 (Engineering Services), with significant activity in water and sewer infrastructure (237110) and other heavy civil works (237990). Their expertise lies in managing complex, mission-critical construction and design services that support Army garrison resilience, including stormwater management, utility modernization, and facility upgrades aligned with Army sustainability and readiness mandates.
