Cindy C. Hildner

Cindy C. Hildner serves as Supervisory Contract Specialist at the W6QM MICC-FDO Fort Sam Houston, under the Department of the Army, where she leads the planning, solicitation, and award of mission-critical contracts that sustain installation readiness and infrastructure resilience. Her portfolio encompasses complex acquisitions in engineering services, environmental remediation, and facilities support, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and Army installation requirements. She oversees the full lifecycle of contracts—from market research and requirements definition to contract execution and performance monitoring—enabling the delivery of essential base operations services that directly support troop readiness and garrison modernization efforts. Hildner maintains consistent working relationships with VETPRIDE SERVICES, INC., a key contractor delivering integrated facilities and operational support solutions. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and long-term vendor partnerships, fostering accountability and mission alignment. While she engages with a range of qualified vendors, her pattern reflects a preference for established service providers with proven expertise in military installation environments, ensuring continuity and operational reliability. Her contracting activity demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with approximately 29% of awards directed toward socioeconomic categories, including Women-Owned Small Businesses and total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. While the majority of procurements remain open to all competitors, she actively promotes small business inclusion through targeted outreach and structured set-aside strategies aligned with Army and DoD socioeconomic goals. Hildner’s technical focus centers on NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services) and 562910 (Remediation Services), reflecting her specialization in infrastructure sustainment, environmental compliance, and installation modernization. She routinely procures professional engineering consulting, hazardous material remediation, and facility systems design services, demonstrating deep expertise in technical domains critical to Army garrison operations and environmental stewardship.
