John J. Dusich

John J. Dusich serves as Chief, Contracts for the W7MV Uspfo Activity Az Arng, a Department of the Army unit responsible for sustaining the readiness and quality-of-life infrastructure of the Arizona Army National Guard. In this leadership role, he oversees the full lifecycle of procurement activities, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning contract execution with operational priorities in housing, food services, medical support, and facility maintenance. His portfolio is exclusively focused on service-based acquisitions critical to garrison and field sustainment, with an emphasis on mission-critical hospitality and lodging services that directly support troop welfare and operational continuity. Mr. Dusich maintains a consistent and strategic partnership with CGD TEMPE, L.P., the primary contractor supporting the agency’s lodging and hospitality requirements. His contracting approach emphasizes long-term, performance-based service agreements that prioritize reliability, compliance, and responsiveness to dynamic force deployment needs. The working relationship is characterized by structured performance metrics, regular contract administration reviews, and a shared commitment to mission-aligned service delivery under the Army’s sustainment framework. A defining feature of Mr. Dusich’s procurement strategy is his exclusive use of Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a steadfast commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals. All awards are reserved for small businesses, ensuring maximum participation by small, disadvantaged, and locally based vendors aligned with the agency’s regional mission. This pattern underscores a deliberate effort to cultivate a resilient, community-integrated contractor base that supports both operational readiness and economic development in Arizona. His procurement focus is singularly centered on NAICS 721110—Hotels (except Casino Hotels) and Motels—reflecting deep expertise in managing lodging services for military personnel. This specialization includes contract administration for transient quarters, extended-stay accommodations, and related amenities critical to force readiness. Mr. Dusich’s technical domain expertise lies in the integration of hospitality operations with federal military standards, ensuring compliance with DoD housing regulations and quality-of-life benchmarks.
