CPT David Carrington

CPT David Carrington serves as a key procurement lead within the 0409 Aq Hq Contract office of the Department of the Army, responsible for managing complex facility and infrastructure support acquisitions critical to sustaining U.S. Army garrisons and overseas installations. His role centers on ensuring operational readiness through the acquisition of specialized construction services, mechanical equipment maintenance, and utility system upgrades—particularly in European theater locations. He oversees full lifecycle contracting activities, from requirement validation and market research to award and performance monitoring, with a focus on mission-critical infrastructure resilience. His portfolio includes high-stakes, time-sensitive procurements that directly impact airfield functionality, building systems, and logistics support networks essential to deployed forces. CPT Carrington maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of international and domestic contractors, including ING. LUDWIG FREITAG ELEKTRO-GMBH & CO. KG, BFRENCH CONSULTING LLC, APC AG, FREUND LANDMASCHINEN GMBH & CO. KG, and BB GOVERNMENT SERVICES GMBH. These partnerships reflect a reliance on specialized European-based vendors with proven expertise in military-grade electrical systems, heavy equipment servicing, and facility engineering. His contracting approach emphasizes technical capability, past performance, and geographic proximity to operational theaters, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in reliability and compliance with Department of Defense standards. CPT Carrington’s procurement portfolio reflects no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This indicates a strategic prioritization of technical suitability and mission-critical capability over socioeconomic categorizations, aligning with the urgent and specialized nature of installation support requirements. While small business participation is not formally incentivized, his contracting decisions remain fully compliant with federal acquisition regulations and emphasize performance-based outcomes. His primary NAICS focus areas—441110 (New Car Dealers), 488490 (Other Support Activities for Road Transportation), and 326291 (Rubber Product Manufacturing for Mechanical Use)—reflect an unconventional but operationally grounded emphasis on vehicle maintenance support systems, transportation logistics infrastructure, and industrial rubber components used in heavy machinery. This specialization underscores his expertise in procuring niche, mission-enabling components critical to mobility and sustainment in austere environments.
