Erica D. Oldaker

Erica D. Oldaker serves as a Contracting Officer for the W7N7 USPFO Activity WV ARNG under the Department of the Army, responsible for managing mission-critical acquisitions that sustain the operational readiness of the West Virginia Army National Guard. Her portfolio focuses on life support, infrastructure maintenance, and logistical services essential to training, mobilization, and community engagement events. She executes full lifecycle contracting actions—from market research and solicitation to award and closeout—ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and mission-aligned outcomes. Her acquisitions primarily support facility operations, personnel services, and mission-enabling infrastructure, requiring close coordination with field units and logistics staff to meet dynamic operational demands. Oldaker maintains a consistent working relationship with Eagleview Dirtworks LLC, a key vendor delivering specialized earthwork and site preparation services critical to maintaining training and event infrastructure. Her contracting approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships grounded in performance reliability and mission compatibility, particularly with firms capable of rapid response and on-site execution under austere conditions. While she engages with a range of contractors, her pattern reflects a preference for established, locally responsive vendors with proven capacity in facility support and environmental services. A strong advocate for socioeconomic contracting, Oldaker prioritizes small business participation, with nearly 59% of her awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. She frequently utilizes 8(a) competed contracts and occasionally awards to women-owned small businesses, reflecting a deliberate strategy to expand opportunity among disadvantaged and underserved entrepreneurs. Her contracting patterns demonstrate a structured commitment to fostering a diverse supplier base aligned with Army resilience goals. Her primary NAICS focus areas include Temporary Help Services, Process and Logistics Consulting, Satellite Telecommunications, and Medical Equipment Wholesaling, reflecting the diverse operational needs of sustaining a mobilized force. She procures services ranging from staffing solutions and logistical planning to telecommunications infrastructure and medical supply distribution, demonstrating technical fluency across both administrative and mission-critical domains.
