These relationships reflect a pattern of engagement with firms capable of delivering specialized repair, construction, and industrial services tailored to military environments. Her contracting approach emphasizes reliability, technical proficiency, and long-term vendor collaboration, often re-engaging proven performers to ensure continuity and quality in mission support. Darnell demonstrates a robust commitment to small business participation, with 100% of her acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5.
