While at AFCEC, he oversaw a $2 billion annual design and construction program supporting Air Force installations worldwide, with focus on F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, KC-46 Tanker, Pacific Airpower Resiliency, and Special Operations Forces beddowns. His decorations include the Legion of Merit, Bronze Star, Meritorious Service Medal, and Defense Commendation Medals.
A licensed professional engineer, Hartford holds bachelor’s and master’s degrees in civil engineering, as well as an MBA. He is a member of the Society of American Military Engineers (SAME), the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), and the Construction Management Association of America (CMAA).
Stanley Consultants is proud to be called upon to sustain our country’s mission critical efforts in the U.S. and abroad. The firm’s history of service to the U.S. federal government dates back to the ‘30s when the firm played a major role bringing electricity to rural America through the REA program. The firm’s support to the Department of Defense started in 1942 and continues today with more than 40 active contracts to support the Air Force, Navy, and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
Local, state, and federal governments repeatedly ask Stanley Consultants to take on some of its most challenging assignments across all the continents. For example, in 2003, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Middle East District asked Stanley Consultants, as part of a team, to lead the master planning of Iraq's infrastructure reconstruction. The firm was called upon immediately after the disaster of Hurricane Katrina to be the task force program manager for restoration of the hurricane protection system in New Orleans.
