Belinda Winston

Belinda Winston serves as a Contracting Officer with the 0410 AQ HQ Contract office under the Department of the Army, where she plays a pivotal role in securing mission-enabling services critical to operational readiness and force sustainability. She manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions focused on logistical, facility, and administrative support systems essential to both garrisoned and deployed Army units. Her work ensures the continuous provision of hospitality, transportation, security, and communications infrastructure, aligning directly with the agency’s mandate to sustain personnel welfare and mission continuity. Winston routinely handles complex service contracts requiring stringent performance metrics and compliance with federal acquisition regulations, particularly in areas involving construction and language services. While specific contractor relationships are not currently available, Winston’s procurement patterns reflect a balanced engagement with both large-capacity service providers and small business vendors, fostering a competitive environment that prioritizes performance, reliability, and socioeconomic inclusion. Her working relationships emphasize long-term contract performance, rigorous oversight, and collaborative vendor engagement to meet dynamic operational demands across multiple theaters and installations. Winston demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with an equal split between total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 and unrestricted acquisitions. This balanced approach underscores her dedication to expanding opportunities for small businesses while maintaining flexibility to meet urgent mission needs. Her contracting strategy consistently leverages the full spectrum of socioeconomic programs, ensuring equitable access without compromising mission effectiveness. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 237110 (Water and Sewer Line and Related Structures Construction) and NAICS 541930 (Translation and Interpretation Services), reflecting expertise in both civil infrastructure support and linguistically enabled operations. She specializes in acquiring facility maintenance systems and mission-critical language services to support global deployments, multilingual communications, and installation resilience, making her a key enabler of Army readiness in both domestic and international operational environments.
