SFC Daryl Slate

SFC Daryl Slate serves as a key procurement lead within the W6QM Micc-ft Stewart under the Department of the Army, responsible for managing acquisition strategies that sustain critical military infrastructure and operational readiness. His role centers on executing construction, facilities maintenance, and mission-enabling service contracts to support Army installations and training environments. He oversees the full lifecycle of procurements—from requirements validation through contract award and administration—with a focus on commercial and institutional building construction, roofing, plumbing, electrical systems, and heavy civil infrastructure such as highways and bridges. His work directly enables the Army’s ability to maintain functional, safe, and mission-ready facilities across the force. SFC Slate maintains a consistent working relationship with X CELL MANAGEMENT INC as his primary contractor, reflecting a pattern of repeat engagement with a single vendor capable of delivering comprehensive facilities services. His contracting approach emphasizes reliability, performance history, and proven capacity to meet stringent military standards for construction and maintenance. While other vendors may participate in solicitations, the bulk of awarded work flows through this established partnership, indicating a preference for contractors with demonstrated expertise in military-grade infrastructure projects and a track record of on-time, compliant delivery. SFC Slate’s procurement activity shows no reliance on socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on capability and readiness over socioeconomic preferences, prioritizing contractor performance, past performance, and technical compliance above small business designation criteria. His approach aligns with mission-critical timelines where speed, scale, and proven execution take precedence over socioeconomic targeting. His primary procurement focus is exclusively under NAICS 721110—Hotels (except Casino Hotels) and Motels—indicating a specialized need for transient lodging and billeting infrastructure to support military personnel, training rotations, and temporary duty assignments. This unusual but critical specialization underscores his expertise in procuring institutional lodging facilities that meet Department of Defense standards for occupancy, safety, and operational support, making him a unique subject matter expert in military housing and transient accommodation acquisition.
