Bernadette T. Quevedo

Bernadette T. Quevedo serves as a key procurement professional within the W6QM MICC-FDO Ft Hood, supporting the Department of the Army’s mission to sustain and modernize critical military infrastructure. She manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions focused on facility maintenance, utilities lifecycle support, and mission-critical communications systems. Her work ensures the operational readiness of Fort Hood’s garrison assets, including barracks, flight lines, and secure communications networks. Quevedo handles complex contract actions under FAR Part 19 and other regulatory frameworks, prioritizing technical solutions that enhance installation resilience and long-term sustainability. She maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including DTESS JV LLC, TLC SOLUTIONS, INC., GERLING & ASSOCIATES, INC., STERLING COMPUTERS CORPORATION, and GOVERNMENT ACQUISITIONS INC. These partnerships reflect a balanced approach between established industry providers and specialized service firms, particularly those with expertise in telecommunications infrastructure and engineering design. Her contracting patterns emphasize performance-based outcomes, with a preference for vendors capable of delivering integrated solutions across multiple technical domains. Quevedo exhibits a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with half of her acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize opportunities for small businesses, including HUBZone, 8(a), and WOSB firms, while maintaining flexibility through non-set-aside awards when required for technical specificity or urgency. Her approach aligns with Army-wide goals to foster a robust small business ecosystem within defense infrastructure support. Her procurement focus is concentrated in NAICS 334210 (Telephone Apparatus Manufacturing) and 541330 (Engineering Services), underscoring deep expertise in secure communications equipment and technical engineering support. She regularly procures mission-critical telecommunications hardware, network integration services, and facility systems engineering, demonstrating proficiency in both hardware procurement and technical advisory contracting within military garrison environments.
