James E. Johnson serves as a Contracting Specialist within the Department of the Army’s 0409 Aq Hq Contract office, responsible for managing complex acquisition programs that sustain critical military infrastructure across U.S. garrisons and overseas installations. His work ensures the operational readiness of airfields, utilities, and facility systems by overseeing the procurement of maintenance, construction, and equipment services essential to military community resilience. Johnson specializes in full lifecycle contract administration, including solicitation, evaluation, award, and performance monitoring, with a focus on high-reliability, mission-critical infrastructure support in austere and deployed environments. He maintains established working relationships with key contractors including PAE Applied Technologies LLC and BSH HUISHODAPPARATEN B.V., leveraging long-term partnerships to deliver consistent, high-quality facility and equipment services. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, technical compliance, and vendor accountability, often resulting in repeat engagements with vendors who demonstrate proven capability in supporting military-grade operational standards. These relationships are built on reliability, regulatory adherence, and responsiveness to dynamic mission requirements. Johnson’s procurement portfolio reflects a non-set-aside orientation, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition, indicating a primary emphasis on technical merit and mission suitability over socioeconomic preferences. While small business participation is not formally prioritized through set-asides, his awards remain open to all qualified offerors, ensuring competitive rigor and value-driven outcomes aligned with Army readiness objectives. His primary NAICS focus centers on passenger car rental and leasing (532111 and 532112), reflecting a significant need for mobility support assets in garrison and expeditionary settings. Additional activity includes procurement of other individual and family services, mattress manufacturing, and heavy civil engineering construction—demonstrating a broad, logistics-driven acquisition profile that supports both daily garrison operations and long-term infrastructure resilience.
