Julio Cabrera

Julio Cabrera serves as a key procurement lead within the 0410 AQ HQ Contract Office under the Department of the Army, managing mission-critical acquisitions that sustain operational readiness across Army installations and deployed forces. He oversees a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on logistical support, facility infrastructure, and mission-enabling services—including hospitality, transportation, security, and administrative systems—ensuring continuous force support and personnel welfare. His work directly supports the Army’s strategic imperative to maintain resilient, responsive infrastructure through timely and compliant contracting practices. Cabrera maintains consistent relationships with a core group of prime contractors including BOOZ ALLEN HAMILTON INC, BARBARICUM LLC, QUIET PROFESSIONALS, LLC, SOS INTERNATIONAL LLC, and SECOND-61 LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, full-service providers capable of delivering complex, integrated solutions across multiple domains, from defense consulting to specialized technical support. His contracting patterns indicate a reliance on established vendors with proven performance in high-stakes, mission-essential environments, often involving multi-year task orders and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) vehicles. While the majority of his acquisitions (80.8%) are unrestricted, Cabrera demonstrates a measurable commitment to small business participation, with nearly one-fifth of awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. His approach aligns with DoD goals to broaden vendor diversity, though he prioritizes capability and capacity over socioeconomic designations, resulting in limited use of 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB-specific set-asides. His procurement focus centers on NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing), reflecting expertise in facility modernization and aviation support systems. He also regularly procures translation and interpretation services (541930), indicating a strong operational need for linguistic and cultural support in global deployments, alongside civil engineering services for water, sewer, and heavy infrastructure projects.
