Judith A. Erickson

Judith A. Erickson serves as a Contract Specialist with the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Distribution, where she plays a pivotal role in executing procurements that sustain the Department of Defense’s global supply chain operations. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of acquisition actions—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—Erickson ensures compliance with FAR and DOD-specific regulations while supporting mission-critical logistics functions. Her portfolio primarily encompasses industrial maintenance, waste management, and specialized manufacturing contracts essential to the storage, handling, and distribution of defense materiel, with a focus on enhancing supply chain resilience and operational readiness. Erickson maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including CONSTRUCTICON CORP, SOUZA CONSTRUCTION, INC., MARTINEZ SERVICES, INC., SDC TIDEWATER JV, LLC, and KINGSLEY BUILDERS, INC., who deliver construction, facility maintenance, and industrial support services. These partnerships reflect a pattern of repeat engagement with established vendors capable of meeting stringent military logistics standards, particularly in facility upgrades, hazardous material handling, and equipment refurbishment. Her procurement approach emphasizes reliability, regulatory compliance, and performance-based outcomes. Her contracting activity demonstrates a strong emphasis on small business participation, with nearly half of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. While no set-aside preferences dominate, her consistent use of small business set-asides underscores a deliberate strategy to expand economic opportunity within the defense industrial base and foster competition among qualified small vendors. Erickson’s primary NAICS focus areas include Solid Waste Collection (562111), Commercial and Industrial Machinery Repair (811310), and Industrial Truck and Stacker Machinery Manufacturing (333924), reflecting her specialization in procuring services and equipment critical to warehouse operations, hazardous material handling, and material handling system maintenance. Her technical expertise spans industrial infrastructure support, packaging standards for sensitive materiel, and the lifecycle management of logistics equipment, ensuring alignment with DLA’s mission to maintain readiness through efficient, secure, and resilient distribution networks.
