Young J. Yi

Young Yi serves as a procurement professional within NAVFACSYSCOM Washington, supporting the Department of the Navy’s mission to sustain, modernize, and expand critical naval infrastructure across the Pacific Northwest and beyond. Responsible for managing complex construction acquisitions, Young Yi specializes in commercial and institutional building projects that enhance operational readiness through resilient, energy-efficient facility solutions. Their portfolio centers on integrated design-build and construction services, ensuring alignment with naval standards for safety, sustainability, and mission continuity. Working closely with engineering and project management teams, Young Yi ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while delivering high-priority infrastructure upgrades on schedule and within policy constraints. Young Yi maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of prime contractors, including Clark Construction Group LLC, Summer Consultants, Inc., and BKM Prime AE SB JV, LLC, all of which provide comprehensive design, construction, and facilities engineering services. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, full-service contractors capable of delivering large-scale, mission-critical building projects under tight operational timelines. The working relationship is characterized by long-term collaboration, performance-based contract management, and a shared emphasis on quality control and regulatory compliance. Young Yi’s procurement activity is exclusively conducted under no set-aside mechanisms, with 100% of awards issued as full and open competitions. This reflects a strategic focus on maximizing competition among qualified, experienced firms rather than socioeconomic set-asides, prioritizing technical capability and proven performance over socioeconomic classification. While small business participation is not formally mandated in this portfolio, all vendors are evaluated on merit, capacity, and past performance in delivering complex construction outcomes. The primary NAICS classification for Young Yi’s acquisitions is 236220, Commercial and Institutional Building Construction, encompassing new construction, renovations, and facility upgrades for naval barracks, administrative buildings, training centers, and support facilities. Expertise lies in managing integrated construction delivery methods, including design-build and construction manager-at-risk models, with a technical focus on building systems integration, energy conservation, and resilience planning.
