Olivia Aguilar

Olivia Y. Aguilar serves as the primary contracting representative for W6QM Micc-ft Knox under the Department of the Army, overseeing the acquisition of critical hospitality, food service, and recreational infrastructure to sustain troop readiness and quality of life. Her role centers on executing full-cycle procurement for lodging, dining, and morale-enhancing facilities that directly support operational tempo and personnel welfare. She manages a portfolio of service-based contracts requiring stringent compliance with military standards, including food safety protocols, facility maintenance, and transient lodging operations, ensuring seamless integration with Army garrison systems. Aguilar maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including CHENEGA GOVERNMENT MISSION SOLUTIONS, LLC, OCS-NCS JV II, LLC, SPACE AGE ENGINEERING, INC, and C.R. & A. CUSTOM APPAREL INC., each specializing in tailored support services for military installations. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for long-term, performance-based partnerships with vendors capable of delivering integrated hospitality solutions, from meal planning and catering to recreational equipment supply and apparel customization. These relationships are characterized by high contract renewal rates and collaborative performance management. Aguilar’s procurement strategy is uniformly aligned with full Small Business Set-Aside requirements under FAR 19.5, with 100% of her acquisitions reserved for small businesses. This reflects a deliberate and sustained commitment to socioeconomic contracting, ensuring equitable access for small, disadvantaged, and service-disabled veteran-owned firms. Her approach prioritizes capacity-building within the small business community to meet the Army’s operational needs while advancing federal diversity goals. Her technical expertise is narrowly focused on NAICS 311991 (Perishable Prepared Food Manufacturing), where she procures ready-to-serve, shelf-stable, and temperature-controlled food products for dining facilities across military installations. This specialization demands deep familiarity with DoD food safety regulations, nutritional compliance, and logistics for perishable supply chains, positioning her as a subject matter expert in military food service procurement.
