CPT Keia N. Hurt

CPT Keia N. Hurt serves as a procurement liaison for the W6QM Micc-ft Polk agency under the Department of the Army, facilitating acquisition activities critical to sustaining garrison and rotational force readiness. In her role, she coordinates open house events to engage industry partners and streamline the solicitation process for life support, infrastructure, and operational services. Her responsibilities include pre-solicitation outreach, requirement validation, and ensuring alignment with Army installation resilience goals. She primarily handles non-construction service contracts focused on training, facility support, and specialized instruction, acting as a key interface between operational units and the contracting community to translate mission needs into actionable procurement requirements. While no formal contractor award data is available, CPT Hurt engages with a broad spectrum of vendors through open house forums and industry days, fostering transparent communication and early collaboration. She works closely with service providers offering instructional, logistical, and installation support solutions, encouraging responsive and innovative proposals that meet Army standards. Her working relationships emphasize responsiveness, compliance, and adaptability, ensuring vendors understand the unique demands of military garrison environments and the need for scalable, mission-critical service delivery. CPT Hurt’s procurement portfolio reflects a 100% non-set-aside preference, indicating a focus on full and open competition without socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. This approach prioritizes technical capability and operational suitability over socioeconomic criteria, aligning with the agency’s need for rapid, reliable service delivery across high-tempo training environments. While small business participation is not formally incentivized, she remains committed to equitable access and transparent evaluation processes for all qualified vendors. Her primary NAICS focus is 611699 (All Other Miscellaneous Schools and Instruction), reflecting a strong emphasis on specialized military training, readiness instruction, and non-traditional educational services. She procures curriculum development, live-fire training support, simulation-based instruction, and operational readiness programs tailored to rotational unit needs. Her domain expertise lies in integrating instructional design with tactical requirements, ensuring training services directly enhance force preparedness and installation sustainment.
