Christy Herbig

Christy M. Herbig serves as a Contracting Officer for the W6QM Micc-ft Leavenworth under the Department of the Army, where she manages the acquisition of critical infrastructure and operational support services essential to garrison readiness. Her portfolio centers on construction, facility maintenance, and technical support contracts that ensure compliance with military standards and sustain mission-critical installations. She exercises full contracting authority under FAR Part 15, overseeing competitive solicitations, source selection, and contract administration for complex, multi-year projects requiring technical oversight and regulatory adherence. Herbig maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including PRAIRIE BAND CONSTRUCTION, INC., PREMIER MECHANICAL PRODUCTS LLC, SES TECHNOLOGIES LLC, AMERICAN BOILER SERVICES INC, and ACI BUILD GROUP LLC. These partnerships reflect a focus on specialized service providers in mechanical systems, facility upgrades, and technical maintenance, with an emphasis on vendors demonstrating proven performance in military-grade environments. Her contracting approach prioritizes reliability, compliance, and long-term operational continuity, often resulting in repeat engagements with contractors who meet stringent quality and safety benchmarks. While 63% of her acquisitions are conducted without set-asides, she actively supports small business participation through Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, consistently allocating nearly one-third of her contract portfolio to qualified small businesses. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster competition and enhance resilience within the defense supply base, without compromising mission requirements or schedule integrity. Her primary procurement focus spans NAICS codes related to professional training (611430), broadcasting equipment manufacturing (334220), and office furniture (337214), alongside niche areas such as performing arts support (711190) and software publishing (511210). These reflect a broad but targeted approach to acquiring non-core but mission-enabling services—ranging from workforce development training to specialized equipment—complementing the agency’s infrastructure modernization mission.
