Ruth A Maggs

Ruth A. Maggs serves as a Contract Specialist within DLA Distribution (SP3300), supporting the Department of Defense’s global logistics mission by managing the acquisition of warehousing and distribution services critical to military supply chain readiness. She is responsible for developing, soliciting, awarding, and administering contracts that ensure the secure storage, handling, and timely delivery of defense materiel across domestic and international locations. Her portfolio centers on complex logistics operations requiring strict compliance with DoD packaging standards, hazardous materials protocols, and warehouse modernization initiatives. Maggs routinely handles firm-fixed-price and cost-reimbursement contracts under the General Services Administration’s logistics frameworks, ensuring alignment with federal acquisition regulations and operational tempo requirements. Maggs maintains long-standing relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including KINGSLEY BUILDERS, INC., SOUZA CONSTRUCTION, INC., CONSTRUCTICON CORP, VET CON SOUZA, and SDC TIDEWATER JV, LLC. These partners are consistently selected for their proven expertise in facility operations, infrastructure maintenance, and large-scale warehousing execution. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous quality assurance, and contractor accountability through robust contract line item narratives and delivery order management. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with demonstrated capacity to operate in high-security, high-volume military logistics environments. Maggs’ procurement activity reflects a 100% non-set-aside orientation, with no awards designated for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic categories. This reflects the operational necessity of securing contractors with established infrastructure, specialized certifications, and scalable capacity to meet the DoD’s just-in-time logistics demands. While small business participation is not a primary focus in her portfolio, all procurements adhere strictly to full and open competition requirements under FAR Part 6. Her primary procurement focus is NAICS 493110 (General Warehousing and Storage), encompassing the full spectrum of defense logistics services including inventory management, palletization, hazardous material storage, and transportation coordination. Maggs specializes in contracts requiring compliance with MIL-STD packaging standards and DoD 4140.25-M warehousing directives, demonstrating deep technical expertise in military supply chain infrastructure and materiel handling systems.
