Ericka Landry

Ericka Landry serves as a Contracting Specialist at Washington Headquarters Services (WHS), a critical support agency within the Department of Defense responsible for delivering enterprise-wide administrative and operational services. In this role, she manages the full lifecycle of non-personal service contracts, ensuring alignment with DoD strategic priorities such as digital transformation, institutional modernization, and resource optimization. Her acquisitions primarily support mission-enabling functions including management consulting, professional training, facility support, and technical services, all designed to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of DoD headquarters operations. Landry maintains established working relationships with a consistent cohort of contractors, including CLARITY INNOVATIONS LLC, CYNERGY PROFESSIONAL SYSTEMS LLC, SIGNATURE RENOVATIONS LLC, AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, and GUIDEHOUSE INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced firms capable of delivering high-complexity, mission-critical support services under tight regulatory frameworks. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear statement of work development, and rigorous contract administration to ensure compliance with FAR and DFARS requirements. While the majority of her acquisitions are unrestricted, Landry consistently allocates approximately 20% of her portfolio to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to small business participation. She does not typically utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, instead favoring broad small business eligibility to foster competitive bidding and innovation across the small business community. Her procurement focus centers on five key NAICS categories: Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services (541611), All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services (541990), All Other Support Services (561990), Professional and Management Development Training (611430), and Postal Service (491110). These reflect a strong emphasis on institutional support services, workforce development, and operational logistics essential to sustaining DoD headquarters functions.
