Marc Pacino started his federal career back in1972 after serving two tours in Viet-Nam with the Americal Division’s198th Lt Infantry Brigade-Chu-Lai, South Viet-Nam.

Assigned to: 809th Engineer Battalion & Civil Engineering Group/234Th Engineering Battalion

Position: Asst. Chief of Contracting / Civil Construction

Civil-Construction, Base Operations Contracting Division. His position started as contracting specialist leading to a full senior contracting officerposition(s). 

Upon completion of overseas duty,  Mr. Pacino, with the assistance of the Viet Now Minority Task Force in CA assisted in developing EnviroVision Environmental Services, Inc, and Madrid Engineering, Inc. Within one year Mr. Pacino assisted the development of it’s sister company Aztec Environmental Remediation, Inc. which was an “Emergency Spill Response” municipal, and hazardous waste remediation firm focusing on federal, state, and municipal service contracts.

After performing services in the Midwest (Chicago), NY, and the SE regions of the US, Mr. Pacino decided to focus entirely in the federal contracting arena. This was brought about by the SBA Small Business Programs, and the DOD Mentor-Protégé system, as well as  the Department of Defense’s federal contracting division taking an extremely strong interest in Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business’s (SDVOSB). In 2005, many of the federal military agencies such as Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC), USACE (US Army Corps of Engineers), USAF, AFCEE, and many of the federal contracting agencies have started to focus on new Base Realignment and Closure Programs (BRAC) which specifically utilize minority set-aside contractors, and specifically Service Disabled Veterans to fulfill their Affirmative Action percentage quotas. The SDV contractor standsat the very top of the selection board due to the extensive lobbying that the Dept. of VA has performed over the past three years.
