Vickie B Ball

Vickie B. Ball serves as a key procurement professional within Navfacsyscom Southwest, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to deliver resilient infrastructure for naval installations across the Southwest region. She manages a diverse portfolio of construction and facility modernization contracts, ensuring alignment with operational readiness goals and environmental compliance standards. Her work centers on acquiring critical civil works, building construction, and utility infrastructure services essential to sustaining aging military facilities and enhancing long-term base resilience. She plays a pivotal role in executing acquisition strategies that balance mission urgency with regulatory rigor, overseeing contracts from solicitation through award and performance oversight. Ball maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of prime contractors specializing in facility construction and environmental remediation, including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, RSI AMENTUM ENVIRONMENTAL SOLUTIONS, L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED, KIEWIT INFRASTRUCTURE WEST CO., and Boh Environmental, L.L.C. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, full-service contractors capable of delivering complex, multi-disciplinary projects under stringent military standards. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, risk mitigation, and contractor accountability across the lifecycle of infrastructure projects. Her contracting patterns reveal a balanced commitment to socioeconomic programs, with nearly 43% of awards directed toward small business set-asides—primarily 8(a) competed and HUBZone contracts—demonstrating a deliberate effort to expand opportunities for disadvantaged and geographically targeted firms. While the majority of acquisitions remain open to all competitors, her consistent use of 8(a) and HUBZone mechanisms underscores a strategic focus on fostering small business capacity within the defense construction sector. Her technical expertise is concentrated in commercial and institutional building construction (NAICS 236220), with significant activity in highway and bridge construction (237310), roofing (238160), painting and wall covering (238320), and oil and gas pipeline infrastructure (237120). She specializes in procurements requiring integrated design-build delivery, sustainable construction practices, and compliance with DoD environmental and energy efficiency mandates.
