David Dillinger

David Dillinger serves as a key procurement lead within the W7MW Uspfo Activity Arang 188, a Department of the Army unit responsible for sustaining the operational infrastructure of the 188th Wing. He manages a diverse portfolio of construction, facility maintenance, and mission-enabling acquisitions, ensuring installations remain mission-ready through timely contracting for renovation, modernization, and utility system upgrades. His work directly supports the agency’s strategic priorities in infrastructure resilience and force readiness, with a focus on complex, multi-disciplinary contracts requiring coordination across engineering, environmental, and logistics domains. Dillinger cultivates partnerships with a broad base of qualified contractors, particularly those specializing in plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning systems, as well as commercial and institutional building construction. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages small businesses and certified vendors with proven expertise in military facility support, fostering long-term relationships grounded in compliance, performance, and responsive service delivery. His contracting approach emphasizes reliability, regulatory adherence, and the ability to execute under stringent DoD standards. A strong advocate for small business inclusion, Dillinger prioritizes Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, directing 75% of his acquisitions to small businesses, with the remaining 25% issued as open competitions. This pattern reflects a deliberate commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals, ensuring equitable access for disadvantaged and local firms while maintaining competitive rigor. His procurement strategy aligns with DoD mandates to enhance small business participation across mission-critical infrastructure projects. His technical focus centers on NAICS 332992 (Small Arms Ammunition Manufacturing), reflecting unique ordnance support needs, and NAICS 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), underscoring his emphasis on critical facility systems. He also manages commercial building construction under NAICS 236220, demonstrating expertise in both defense-specific and general construction domains. Dillinger’s work blends operational urgency with technical precision, ensuring installations meet the rigorous demands of military readiness.
