Dallas Ray Workman

Dallas Ray Workman serves as a Contract Specialist within the W7N3 USPFO Activity UT ARNG, supporting the Department of the Army’s mission to sustain readiness and operational capability for Army National Guard units. He manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for critical equipment, services, and infrastructure essential to training, communications, and physical readiness programs. His portfolio includes acquisitions under FAR Part 13 and Part 15, with a focus on commercial off-the-shelf solutions, maintenance contracts, and technology-enabled support services that directly enhance unit operational effectiveness. Workman ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurement decisions with the agency’s strategic priorities in command and control modernization and secure communications. Workman maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including AKIMA Readiness Support LLC, Compass Medical Provider LLC, RMRM, Inc., vCloud Gov Inc., and Phoenix Health & Fitness Solutions, LLC. These partnerships reflect a mix of defense support providers, healthcare service vendors, IT infrastructure specialists, and fitness program implementers. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, with a preference for vendors demonstrating proven experience in military environment delivery and rapid scalability. He actively collaborates with these contractors to ensure contract compliance, timely delivery, and mission alignment across geographically dispersed National Guard units. Workman exhibits a strong commitment to small business participation, with over 42% of his acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. He also regularly incorporates Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and Women-Owned Small Business set-asides, reflecting a deliberate socioeconomic strategy to broaden vendor diversity. While the majority of his awards are open to all competitors, his consistent use of set-asides underscores a proactive effort to cultivate a resilient small business supply base aligned with Army National Guard sustainment needs. His procurement focus centers on NAICS codes related to computer training, radio and television broadcasting equipment manufacturing, and audio/video equipment production—reflecting expertise in communications technology, digital training platforms, and field-deployable hardware. He also oversees acquisitions in fitness and wellness services, demonstrating a multidomain understanding of readiness requirements beyond traditional defense procurement.
