Raymond C Folweiler

Raymond C. Folweiler serves as a secondary procurement liaison within the W7NX Uspfo Activity Pa Arng, supporting the Department of the Army’s mission to sustain the operational readiness of the Pennsylvania Army National Guard. While not a primary contracting officer, he plays a critical role in facilitating acquisition planning, vendor coordination, and contract administration for facility maintenance, logistics support, and mission-critical infrastructure projects. His responsibilities include ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations, validating technical requirements, and aligning contract actions with strategic readiness goals. He routinely handles service-based acquisitions under FAR Part 12 and Part 37, focusing on performance-based contracting for repair, maintenance, and facility sustainment. Folweiler maintains a consistent working relationship with Summit Fire & Security LLC, a key vendor providing life safety systems and integrated security services essential to base infrastructure resilience. His procurement patterns reflect a preference for established contractors with proven capability in mission-critical environments, particularly those experienced in military-grade compliance and rapid-response service delivery. He collaborates closely with technical stakeholders to ensure vendor performance aligns with Army standards for safety, reliability, and interoperability. His contracting portfolio reflects a strong but not exclusive commitment to small business participation, with approximately 27.3% of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. While the majority of acquisitions are unrestricted, he actively supports socioeconomic programs by prioritizing qualified small businesses in categories where capacity and expertise align with mission needs, demonstrating balanced adherence to both efficiency and inclusion goals. Folweiler’s primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 339920 (sporting and athletic goods manufacturing), 722310 (food service contractors), and 811310 (commercial and industrial machinery repair), reflecting the diverse operational needs of National Guard facilities. He procures specialized equipment maintenance, field catering services, and safety system upgrades, indicating deep familiarity with logistics support domains critical to force projection and garrison sustainability. His technical expertise spans facility lifecycle support, emergency response systems, and mission-enabling services tailored to Army National Guard operational requirements.
