Master Sergeant Calvin Cunningham

Master Sergeant Calvin Cunningham supports the W6QM Micc-ft Bliss under the Department of the Army by managing critical procurement activities that sustain Fort Bliss’s installation infrastructure and operational readiness. Though his official title is not listed, his role centers on executing acquisition strategies for facility maintenance, utilities, and environmental services essential to military base operations. He handles a broad spectrum of service-based contracts, including construction-related support, waste management, and on-site logistics, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations while aligning with the agency’s mission to maintain resilient, safe, and functional military environments. Cunningham maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors, including Federal Roofing and Construction Company LLC, All American AA LLC, C. Ortiz, Corp, Globe Builders, Inc., and Pioneer Roofing and Construction LLC. These partnerships reflect a focus on experienced, regionally based firms capable of delivering specialized construction and maintenance services under time-sensitive military operational constraints. His procurement approach emphasizes reliability, local responsiveness, and technical proficiency in roofing, utility repair, and facility upgrades, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in performance history and regulatory compliance. A strong advocate for small business participation, Cunningham consistently prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, directing approximately 80% of his acquisitions to small businesses. This pattern underscores a deliberate commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals, enabling small firms to compete for and fulfill essential installation support services. His portfolio reflects minimal use of set-asides for 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB firms, suggesting a preference for broad small business eligibility over targeted socioeconomic categories. His primary NAICS focus areas include Caterers (722320), Septic Tank and Related Services (562991), and Independent Artists, Writers, and Performers (711510), indicating a unique blend of facility support, environmental services, and quality-of-life programming. While seemingly diverse, these categories collectively serve the holistic needs of a large military installation—ensuring sanitation, food services, and morale-enhancing activities are reliably procured to sustain personnel readiness.
