Selvena Carter

Selvena Carter supports the mission of W6QM Micc-ft Riley under the Department of the Army’s W911RX organization by managing procurement activities critical to sustaining Army installation readiness. She oversees the acquisition of specialized facilities and operational support services essential to maintaining secure, functional, and habitable military environments. Her portfolio includes contracts for infrastructure maintenance, environmental services, and logistical support, ensuring base operability through reliable utilities, pest control, and equipment repair. She operates within the full spectrum of federal acquisition regulations, with a focus on service-based contracts that directly support installation sustainment and mission continuity. Carter maintains a primary contracting relationship with CHENEGA BASE & LOGISTICS SERVICES LLC, a trusted provider of comprehensive base operations support. Her procurement patterns reflect a preference for long-term, performance-based partnerships with a limited number of high-performing vendors, ensuring consistent service quality and operational reliability. While CHENEGA dominates her contractor landscape, she also engages with smaller, niche providers for specialized tasks, fostering a balanced vendor ecosystem that prioritizes accountability and mission alignment. Her procurement strategy demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic goals, with over 64% of her awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. She actively leverages 8(a) competed set-asides and maintains a deliberate focus on small business participation, aligning with Department of Defense mandates to promote equitable access to federal contracting opportunities. Her patterns reflect a strategic balance between large-capacity service providers and qualified small businesses capable of delivering specialized installation support. Carter’s technical expertise centers on NAICS categories including 561710 (pest control and extermination), 811310 (commercial and industrial machinery repair), 488991 (packing and crating), and 561492 (court reporting and stenotype services). She specializes in procuring mission-critical services that ensure environmental compliance, equipment integrity, and administrative support across military installations, demonstrating deep domain knowledge in non-tactical, sustainment-focused contracting.
