Zachary Finn

Zachary Finn serves as a key procurement lead within the W072 Endist Louisville under the Department of the Army, overseeing the acquisition of critical civil engineering and infrastructure projects essential to military readiness. His responsibilities center on managing full lifecycle contracts for the construction, renovation, and modernization of military installations, including barracks, training facilities, utilities, and energy systems. He specializes in complex public works procurements aligned with the Army’s strategic priorities in resilient infrastructure and energy security, ensuring compliance with federal construction standards and DoD sustainability mandates. His acquisitions consistently target mission-critical civil works requiring advanced engineering oversight and phased execution. Finn maintains long-standing relationships with a core group of experienced infrastructure contractors, including Thalle-Bauer LLC, HARPER CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, INC., MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, J. E. DUNN CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, and BL HARBERT INTERNATIONAL LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with proven expertise in large-scale military construction, utility integration, and site development. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous quality control, and adherence to military construction specifications, fostering collaborative, high-reliability vendor relationships built on track record and compliance. Finn’s procurement portfolio reflects a strict focus on open competition, with 100% of awards issued under no set-aside provisions. This indicates a deliberate strategy prioritizing technical capability and capacity over socioeconomic classifications, ensuring access to the most qualified contractors for mission-critical infrastructure projects. While small business participation is not formally incentivized through set-asides, his awards remain accessible to all qualified vendors under full and open competition guidelines. His primary procurement focus is exclusively on NAICS 237130 — Power and Communication Line and Related Structures Construction — underscoring deep specialization in electrical distribution systems, communication infrastructure, microgrid integration, and utility-scale site development for military installations. His technical domain expertise lies in the design-build and performance-based acquisition of energy-resilient infrastructure, with an emphasis on modernization of aging utility networks and compliance with Army Corps of Engineers standards.
