Heather L. Wagner

Heather L. Wagner serves as a Contract Specialist within the Department of the Army’s 0409 Aq Hq Contract office, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions to sustain U.S. Army garrisons and overseas installations. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—with a primary focus on facility maintenance, infrastructure resilience, and operational readiness support. Wagner specializes in service-based contracts that ensure the functionality of airfields, utilities, buildings, and logistics systems, particularly in European and deployed environments, aligning closely with the Army’s mandate to maintain enduring operational capacity. Her primary contractor relationships are centered on PAE Applied Technologies LLC and BSH HUISHUDAPPARATEN B.V., reflecting a consistent reliance on established, high-capacity providers capable of delivering complex, large-scale facility and equipment services. Wagner’s contracting patterns indicate a preference for experienced, global vendors with proven track records in military infrastructure support, emphasizing performance-based outcomes and contract compliance over frequent vendor rotation. These partnerships are characterized by long-term, stable engagements grounded in technical reliability and mission alignment. Wagner’s procurement portfolio reflects a 100% non-set-aside approach, indicating a strategic focus on full and open competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. This pattern underscores a mission-driven prioritization of capability and scalability over socioeconomic preferences, consistent with the operational urgency of sustaining critical military infrastructure. Her primary industry focus is squarely on NAICS 561612 (Security Guards and Patrol Services), which dominates her acquisition portfolio. She procures comprehensive security and patrol services essential to force protection, perimeter security, and installation integrity across U.S. Army garrisons and overseas bases. Her expertise lies in contracting for armed and unarmed security operations, access control systems, and integrated surveillance support—domains requiring strict adherence to DoD standards and rapid response capabilities.
