Dan Bart

Daniel G. Bart supports the W7NG Uspfo Activity Mn Arng in executing critical procurement activities for the Minnesota Army National Guard, ensuring operational readiness through the acquisition of logistical, facility, and communications infrastructure. While his formal title is not listed, his role centers on managing contracts that sustain garrison operations—including food service, facility maintenance, and media outreach—enabling forces to meet both state and federal mission requirements. He handles a diverse portfolio of service-based acquisitions, often requiring coordination across multiple functional domains to meet rapidly evolving readiness demands. Bart maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors, including Minnesota Broadcasters Association, Arcabel Solutions LLC, CSA Service Solutions, LLC, and ProCases, Inc., reflecting a preference for regional and specialized vendors with proven capability in public affairs, technical support, and facility services. His contracting patterns suggest a reliance on established partners with niche expertise in military-aligned communications and operational support, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in reliability and mission alignment rather than broad open competition. His procurement strategy demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly 43% of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, and an additional 7.2% allocated to service-disabled veteran-owned and 8(a) small businesses. This reflects a deliberate effort to cultivate local economic resilience while ensuring compliance with federal socioeconomic goals. The majority of acquisitions remain open to all competitors, indicating a balanced approach between broad competition and targeted small business outreach. Bart’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541890 (Other Services Related to Advertising), underscoring expertise in public affairs and media outreach support, followed by specialized services in professional employer organizations and testing laboratories. His domain expertise centers on non-combat, sustainment-related services critical to maintaining day-to-day readiness, with an emphasis on communication infrastructure, administrative support, and facility-enabled operations.
