Samantha R. Davis

Samantha R. Divis serves as a Contract Specialist at W4GG Hq US Army Tacom, supporting the Department of Defense’s mission to ensure the readiness and modernization of ground combat and support vehicle systems. In this role, she manages the full lifecycle of acquisition contracts for technical systems, engineering services, and logistics support critical to armored vehicle sustainment and tactical mobility. Her responsibilities include developing solicitation documents, conducting source selection, negotiating terms, and ensuring compliance with FAR and DFARS requirements, with a focus on complex defense procurement involving integrated hardware, software, and survivability upgrades. Divis maintains established relationships with key contractors including Schutt Industries, VAREC NV, ONTIC ENGINEERING & MANUFACTURING, INC, A&M AEROSTRUCTURES, INC., and BOWHEAD AVIONICS MANUFACTURING, LLC. These partnerships reflect a pattern of engagement with specialized vendors capable of delivering advanced avionics, structural components, and mission-critical subsystems for military vehicle platforms. Her contracting approach emphasizes technical rigor, performance-based outcomes, and long-term vendor collaboration to meet evolving battlefield requirements. Her procurement strategy reflects a balanced commitment to socioeconomic programs, with approximately one-third of her awards directed toward small business set-asides, including 8(a), HUBZone, and total small business categories under FAR 19.5. While half of her contracts remain open to full and open competition, she consistently prioritizes opportunities for certified small businesses, aligning with DoD mandates to foster innovation and resilience in the defense industrial base. Her primary NAICS focus areas include Commercial and Institutional Building Construction, Other Electronic Component Manufacturing, Solid Waste Collection, and Language Schools—indicating a diverse portfolio that extends beyond traditional defense systems to include facility support, specialized electronic components, and ancillary services essential to base operations and workforce readiness. This breadth underscores her ability to manage complex, multi-domain acquisitions in support of integrated logistics and sustainment missions.
