Michelle Shultz

Michelle Shultz serves as a SGT within the W7NU Uspfo Activity Oh Arng, a critical logistical support unit under the Department of the Army responsible for sustaining Ohio Army National Guard operational readiness. In her procurement role, she manages the acquisition of facility services, subsistence support, and garrison infrastructure essential to training, housing, and meal operations for reserve component personnel. Her responsibilities include planning, soliciting, awarding, and administering contracts that ensure safe, self-sustaining garrison environments aligned with Army sustainment doctrine. She primarily handles service-based acquisitions under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, with a focus on long-term, mission-critical support contracts requiring high reliability and compliance with military standards. Shultz maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors including HOVIS CONSTRUCTION LLC, ARILLIC LLC, MIC INDUSTRIES INC, and COLUMBUS CORPORATE CATERERS INC., each of which provides specialized facility maintenance, catering, and operational support services. Her procurement approach emphasizes vendor reliability, past performance, and capacity to deliver in austere or high-demand environments. She cultivates long-term partnerships with firms that demonstrate proven ability to meet stringent Army garrison requirements, often renewing contracts based on sustained performance and compliance with quality assurance protocols. Shultz exhibits a 100% preference for Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, ensuring all solicitations are reserved exclusively for small businesses, including 8(a), HUBZone, and SDVOSB-certified entities. Her contracting patterns reflect a deliberate and unwavering commitment to socioeconomic program goals, actively prioritizing small business participation as a core component of mission success. This strategy enhances local economic resilience while fostering a diverse, capable vendor base attuned to the unique demands of National Guard operations. Her primary procurement focus is on NAICS 622110 (General Medical and Surgical Hospitals), reflecting her specialization in acquiring comprehensive subsistence, sanitation, and health-support services for military garrisons. Though not clinical care, her acquisitions replicate hospital-grade operational standards for meal service, waste management, water safety, and facility hygiene—ensuring troop readiness through secure, sanitary living conditions. Her domain expertise lies in integrating food service, housing, and environmental compliance into cohesive garrison sustainment solutions.
