Mikel Hernandez

Mikel Hernandez serves as a primary contracting professional within the W6QM MICC FDO Ft Bragg, a critical sustainment organization under the Department of the Army responsible for maintaining operational readiness at one of the nation’s largest military installations. In this role, Hernandez manages the acquisition of mission-critical garrison services and infrastructure support, ensuring seamless operational continuity for active-duty units and support personnel. His portfolio encompasses a broad range of procurement activities centered on facility maintenance, equipment repair, and logistical supply chains, with a focus on delivering reliable, compliant, and timely solutions that uphold Army readiness standards. Hernandez maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including SILVER NATIONAL CORP., A TO B CREATIONS INC, and TACTICAL ELECTRONICS AND MILITARY SUPPLY L.L.C., who provide specialized maintenance, parts distribution, and tactical equipment support. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in military-grade logistics and installation-level sustainment, often requiring strict adherence to Defense Logistics Agency standards and military specifications. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and vendor accountability to ensure mission-critical services remain uninterrupted. His acquisition strategy reflects a balanced commitment to small business participation, with approximately half of his contracts set aside for total small business eligibility under FAR 19.5, while the remainder remain open to all competitors. This pattern demonstrates a deliberate effort to foster competition and expand opportunities for small businesses without compromising operational requirements. He consistently leverages socioeconomic programs to enhance vendor diversity while maintaining procurement integrity. Hernandez’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 811310 for commercial and industrial machinery repair and maintenance and NAICS 423120 for motor vehicle supplies and new parts wholesale distribution. These categories reflect deep expertise in sustaining vehicle fleets, facility infrastructure, and field-deployable equipment, requiring technical knowledge of military-grade components and supply chain resilience. His work ensures that Fort Bragg’s operational environment remains fully supported through reliable, standards-compliant procurement practices.
