Donna W. Guarrera

Donna W. Guarrera serves as a key procurement lead within the 0414 Aq Hq Contract Augmented unit of the Department of the Army, overseeing the acquisition of specialized sign manufacturing services critical to the operational readiness of U.S. Army installations. Her role centers on ensuring compliance with federal contracting regulations while delivering mission-critical infrastructure signage—including safety, directional, and regulatory signs—for garrison facilities, firing ranges, and training areas. She manages the full lifecycle of contract actions, from requirements validation and market research to solicitation, evaluation, and award, ensuring alignment with Army installation sustainment priorities and regulatory standards. Guarrera maintains consistent procurement relationships with three primary contractors—LINEA VERDE S.R.L., FIORINI IMPIANTI GROUP SRL, and NUOVA ELETTRICA S.R.L.—all of which specialize in the design, fabrication, and installation of durable, military-compliant signage systems. These vendor partnerships reflect a pattern of sustained engagement with experienced international suppliers capable of meeting stringent U.S. military specifications for materials, durability, and environmental resilience. Her contracting approach emphasizes technical compliance, quality assurance, and timely delivery to support installation readiness cycles. Her procurement portfolio reflects a 100% no set-aside preference, indicating a focus on full and open competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. This approach prioritizes technical capability and performance history over socioeconomic criteria, aligning with the specialized nature of the required deliverables. Guarrera’s primary NAICS focus is 339950 (Sign Manufacturing), underscoring her deep expertise in procuring custom-engineered signage systems for military environments. She specializes in acquiring high-integrity, weather-resistant, and illuminated signs that meet Army Regulation and OSHA standards, requiring precise material specifications, dimensional accuracy, and compliance with federal accessibility guidelines. Her domain expertise lies at the intersection of defense infrastructure and industrial manufacturing, ensuring that signage systems enhance safety, navigation, and operational efficiency across Army installations.
