Arnita Tunstall

Arnita Tunstall serves as a Contract Specialist within the W7M1 Uspfo Activity DC ARNG under the Department of the Army, where she plays a pivotal role in executing procurement strategies that sustain operational readiness and quality-of-life support for Army National Guard personnel. She manages a diverse portfolio of service-based acquisitions, primarily focused on hospitality, facilities support, and apparel services critical to troop welfare during training, mobilization, and community engagement events. Her work ensures timely and compliant delivery of lodging, dining, and linen services aligned with federal acquisition regulations and mission-critical readiness goals. Tunstall maintains consistent working relationships with key vendors including Dutch Mill Catering, LLC, Two-Tac LLC, and Tri-State Linens & Events Rental Corporation, each of which provides specialized services in food service operations, temporary facility management, and event rental logistics. These partnerships reflect a pattern of engaging established contractors with proven capacity to deliver scalable, on-site support under dynamic operational conditions. Her procurement approach emphasizes reliability, compliance, and performance-based outcomes, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in clear statement of work requirements and contract administration best practices. Her contracting patterns demonstrate a balanced commitment to socioeconomic programs, with approximately one-third of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, while the majority remain open to all competitors. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize competition while actively creating opportunities for small businesses without compromising mission needs. She consistently prioritizes small business participation within the constraints of operational urgency and service availability. Tunstall’s primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 721110 (Hotels and Motels), 721199 (Other Traveler Accommodation), and 332311 (Prefabricated Metal Building Manufacturing), indicating deep expertise in transient lodging solutions, modular facility support, and temporary infrastructure procurement. Her technical domain knowledge spans hospitality operations, temporary housing logistics, and rapid-deployment facility systems, making her a key resource for mission-critical, non-standard acquisition requirements in support of Army National Guard readiness.
