CPT Maurice L. Hudson

CPT Maurice L. Hudson serves as a Contingency Contracting Officer within the W6QM Micc-ft Benning, a key installation support unit under the Department of the Army’s W911SF organization. In this critical role, he is responsible for rapidly establishing and managing time-sensitive contracts to sustain military readiness during contingency operations, natural disasters, and emergency response scenarios. His acquisitions focus on ensuring mission-critical infrastructure remains operational through timely procurement of construction and facility services. CPT Hudson operates within the Army’s contingency contracting framework, executing urgent, non-routine contracts under FAR Part 18 authorities to maintain the integrity and functionality of training and garrison facilities across high-demand operational environments. CPT Hudson collaborates with a dynamic pool of qualified contractors specializing in commercial and institutional construction, often engaging firms with proven experience in rapid deployment, modular construction, and military-compatible facility upgrades. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently works with vendors possessing pre-qualified status under Army contingency contracting pools, ensuring compliance with security, safety, and performance standards. His working relationships emphasize responsiveness, adaptability, and adherence to strict timelines, with a preference for contractors who can mobilize quickly and operate under austere conditions. CPT Hudson’s contracting activity reflects a strict preference for non-set-aside procurements, with 100% of his awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects the urgent nature of contingency operations, where speed and capability outweigh socioeconomic targeting requirements. While he does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, his approach prioritizes mission urgency and contractor readiness over socioeconomic preferences, consistent with DoD contingency directives. His primary procurement focus is on NAICS 236220—Commercial and Institutional Building Construction—encompassing facility repairs, barracks modernization, training range infrastructure, and utility system upgrades. CPT Hudson possesses deep expertise in construction contract administration, including performance-based specifications, design-build delivery methods, and construction management oversight, ensuring installations remain mission-ready under dynamic operational demands.
