Deborah R. Randall

Deborah Randall serves as a Contract Specialist within the W6QM Micc-ft Knox under the Department of the Army, where she plays a pivotal role in executing procurement strategies that sustain military readiness and quality of life. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of contracts for hospitality, food service, and recreational infrastructure critical to troop welfare and operational continuity. She specializes in complex service acquisitions under FAR Part 12 and Part 37, ensuring compliance with DoD requirements while aligning with the agency’s mission to support sustained operational tempo through reliable lodging, dining, and morale-enhancing facilities. Randall maintains established working relationships with key contractors including CHENEGA GOVERNMENT MISSION SOLUTIONS, LLC, OCS-NCS JV II, LLC, and SPACE AGE ENGINEERING, INC., among others. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, capable vendors capable of delivering integrated support services across diverse military installations. Her contracting patterns emphasize performance-based outcomes, with a focus on long-term vendor reliability and service quality over transactional procurement. Her set-aside preferences reveal a predominantly open competition approach, with 79.3% of acquisitions conducted without socioeconomic set-asides. However, she consistently supports small business participation, allocating 13.8% of awards to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and 6.9% to 8(a) competed contracts, demonstrating a balanced commitment to both efficiency and socioeconomic goals. Randall’s procurement portfolio is heavily concentrated in NAICS 561920 (Convention and Trade Show Organizers) and 511210 (Software Publishers), reflecting her specialization in event and digital support services for military morale programs. She also regularly procures catering services (NAICS 722320) and specialized equipment including apparel and electronic systems, showcasing expertise in both administrative and technical service domains essential to garrison sustainability.
