SSG Charry Cotto

Chary Cotto Quinones serves as a key procurement lead within the W7PA Uspfo Activity Pr Arng, a Department of the Army unit responsible for sustaining the operational readiness of the Army National Guard. In this role, they manage the acquisition of mission-enabling services and infrastructure support critical to training, deployment, and force projection. Their portfolio encompasses facility maintenance, logistical support, and operational services that ensure secure and functional training environments. Cotto Quinones handles a mix of fixed-price and cost-reimbursement contracts under FAR Part 12 and Part 36, with a focus on service-based acquisitions that align with the Army National Guard’s strategic sustainability goals. They maintain established working relationships with primary contractors including CH2M HILL - HDR JV and RAGLAN LLC, both of which provide integrated facility management, construction, and environmental services. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, multi-disciplinary vendors capable of delivering complex, long-term support across diverse geographic locations. Cotto Quinones consistently engages these contractors on multi-year task orders and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) vehicles, fostering collaborative, performance-based contracting models that emphasize accountability and mission alignment. While the majority of acquisitions are conducted under open competition (71.4%), a significant portion—nearly 28.6%—is set aside for total small business participation under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to expand opportunities for small businesses without imposing narrower socioeconomic set-asides like 8(a) or HUBZone, indicating a preference for broad-based small business inclusion over targeted categories. The procurement focus centers on NAICS 721110 (hotels and motels) for transient personnel lodging, NAICS 236220 for commercial and institutional construction, and NAICS 611710 for educational support services tied to military training programs. Additional emphasis is placed on environmental consulting (541620) and security systems (561621), demonstrating expertise in managing integrated infrastructure and safety services essential to force readiness.
