About Gregory Garnett

I am an infrastructure and capital programs operator with more than 23 years of experience leading large, high-consequence public systems. My career has centered on running organizations and capital portfolios that support waterfront, aviation, utilities, energy, and other mission-critical facilities.I am known for bringing clarity to complex operating environments and leading teams with steady, practical judgment. I am often asked to step in when delivery is under pressure, decisions are unclear, or essential systems must remain operational while major capital work is underway.I have led organizations of up to 300 engineers and operators and overseen capital and operating portfolios ranging from $100M to $800M+. My experience includes aviation and waterfront infrastructure, undersea and offshore systems, utilities and energy assets, and large-scale recovery efforts across Hawaii, Southern California, Guam, and the broader Pacific, including senior leadership roles supporting the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, and major infrastructure firms.Earlier in my career, I managed 420+ contract actions totaling $91M at Naval Base Kitsap, coordinating closely with the Base Operating Support contractor to keep operations stable across critical facilities, utilities, and waterfront assets.Based in Southern California, I bring this background to senior leadership roles overseeing operations, capital portfolios, and enterprise delivery within infrastructure-intensive organizations and public agencies. This includes COO, General Manager, capital programs, and executive director–level roles, as well as adjacent positions requiring accountability for complex systems and sound judgment under pressure.
