Randy Reis

Randy Reis serves as a Contract Specialist within the W7NU Uspfo Activity Oh Arng, part of the Department of the Army, where he manages the acquisition lifecycle for critical logistical and facility support services essential to Ohio Army National Guard readiness. His responsibilities include planning, soliciting, awarding, and administering contracts that ensure sustainable garrison operations, including subsistence, housing, and maintenance infrastructure. Reis specializes in complex, mission-critical procurements that support force sustainment, with a focus on services enabling training readiness and operational self-sufficiency for reserve component units. Reis maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors, including Hovis Construction LLC for facility upgrades, Arilllic LLC for specialized logistics support, MIC Industries Inc. for equipment procurement, and Columbus Corporate Caterers Inc. for meal services. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven capacity in military garrison environments, often requiring compliance with DoD standards for safety, security, and operational continuity. His contracting approach emphasizes reliability, responsiveness, and adherence to performance-based service requirements. A strong advocate for small business participation, Reis consistently applies Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, with 90.9% of his acquisitions reserved for small businesses. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize socioeconomic opportunities while ensuring competitive, capable vendor participation. His procurement patterns demonstrate a commitment to fostering a diverse supplier base, prioritizing small, locally based firms that can meet the unique demands of National Guard operations. Reis’s primary procurement focus centers on NAICS codes 562991 (septic tank and related services) and 336212 (truck trailer manufacturing), each accounting for 18.2% of his portfolio, alongside significant activity in 621910 (ambulance services) and 337214 (office furniture manufacturing). His technical expertise lies in acquiring mission-enabling infrastructure, mobile support units, and facility maintenance services critical to sustaining non-deployed but operationally vital National Guard assets.
