His working relationships reflect a preference for responsive, scalable vendors with proven experience in federal and defense environments. Hernandez’s contracting activity reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of his acquisitions conducted without set-aside designations, including no use of 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or WOSB programs.
