Karina Haddix

Karina Haddix serves as a key procurement professional within the W6QM MICC-FDO at Fort Sam Houston, supporting the U.S. Army’s mission to sustain installation readiness through strategic acquisition of base services and infrastructure solutions. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on mission-critical support functions, including dining services, facility maintenance, and operational infrastructure sustainment. Her work ensures the continuous operation of military garrisons by securing reliable, high-quality services that directly enable soldier readiness and daily base functionality. Haddix handles a mix of competitive and set-aside acquisitions under FAR Part 19, prioritizing efficiency and compliance with Department of Defense procurement policies. Her primary contractor relationships center on VETPRIDE SERVICES, INC., a trusted vendor with a consistent track record in delivering integrated base support services. She maintains a stable, performance-driven partnership with this contractor, alongside a broader network of small businesses providing janitorial, food service, and facilities management solutions. Haddix’s contracting approach emphasizes vendor reliability, past performance evaluation, and long-term service continuity, fostering collaborative relationships that align with the agency’s operational tempo and mission requirements. Haddix demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with over one-third of her awards designated for total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, and a notable emphasis on service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses. While the majority of her acquisitions remain open to all competitors, she consistently leverages set-aside authorities to promote equitable access and enhance veteran-owned business participation, reflecting the Army’s broader goals for inclusive economic opportunity in defense contracting. Her procurement focus is heavily concentrated in NAICS 722310 (Food Service Contractors) and NAICS 561720 (Janitorial Services), with additional activity in computer facilities management and related support services. She specializes in acquiring comprehensive, turnkey operational services that maintain the functionality of military installations, demonstrating deep expertise in facilities sustainment, service integration, and performance-based contracting methodologies.
