Annakay Charles

Annakay Charles serves as a key procurement lead within the W6QM Micc-ft Jackson, a critical installation support unit under the Department of the Army’s W9124C organization. Responsible for managing facility sustainment and operational support acquisitions, she ensures the continued readiness of military infrastructure through strategic contracting for maintenance, security, and specialized technical services. Her portfolio centers on non-complex, high-frequency procurements that directly support daily installation functionality, with a focus on delivering secure, compliant, and mission-critical environments for Army personnel and operations. Her contractor relationships are narrowly focused, with primary engagements centered on the South Carolina Commission for the Blind and Guardian South Termite and Pest Control, LLC, reflecting a preference for specialized, niche vendors capable of delivering tailored facility services. These partnerships emphasize local, mission-aligned providers with proven expertise in environmental compliance and infrastructure protection, suggesting a deliberate strategy to prioritize contractors with deep domain knowledge over broad-service vendors. Annakay demonstrates a robust commitment to socioeconomic contracting, consistently applying Total Small Business Set-Asides and Women-Owned Small Business preferences at a 50% rate across eligible procurements. This pattern signals a deliberate effort to expand economic opportunity within the defense supply chain while ensuring access to agile, responsive vendors capable of meeting rapid installation support demands. Her procurement activity is heavily concentrated in two NAICS categories: 332323 for ornamental and architectural metal work, indicating frequent acquisitions of custom fencing, security barriers, and structural metal components; and 541519 for other computer-related services, reflecting demand for cybersecurity support, facility monitoring systems, and integrated IT infrastructure services. This dual focus underscores her technical expertise in both physical security infrastructure and digital enablement solutions essential to modern military base operations.
