Hargis consistently applies a 100% Small Business Set-Aside under FAR 19.5 across all procurements, demonstrating an unwavering commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals. He prioritizes small business participation without preference for specific designations like 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, instead focusing on capacity, capability, and mission alignment. This approach fosters a competitive, agile vendor base composed of highly specialized small firms capable of delivering tailored solutions under tight timelines. His primary procurement focus is centered on NAICS 335910 (Battery Manufacturing), reflecting an intensive need for ruggedized, high-performance power systems that sustain communications, navigation, and survival equipment in extreme environments. He specializes in procuring mission-essential battery technologies, including lithium-based and cold-weather-optimized power cells, demonstrating deep technical expertise in energy systems for special operations use cases.
