Her procurement patterns emphasize long-term vendor partnerships grounded in performance reliability, regulatory compliance, and responsive service delivery, particularly in mission-critical infrastructure domains. A strong advocate for small business participation, Davis consistently prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, accounting for over 72% of her acquisitions. She actively promotes socioeconomic contracting through HUBZone and Women-Owned Small Business set-asides, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to broadening vendor diversity while maintaining mission effectiveness. Her contracting approach aligns with Army-wide goals to enhance resilience and equity in the supply base. Her technical focus centers on NAICS 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction), with significant activity in roofing, site preparation, and construction equipment leasing (NAICS 238160, 238910, 532412). Davis brings deep expertise in procuring complex civil works services, including road and bridge maintenance, water system repairs, and military recreation facility upgrades, ensuring acquisitions meet stringent DoD engineering and safety standards.
