Solomon P. Cuenca

Solomon P. Cuenca serves as a key procurement lead within the 0414 AQ HQ Contract Augmented unit of the Department of the Army, supporting the sustainment and operational readiness of U.S. Army garrison infrastructure. He manages the acquisition of critical facility and infrastructure services essential to maintaining mission-critical installations, including construction, maintenance, and technical support for ranges, utilities, and defense-related facilities. His procurement portfolio is focused on ensuring resilient, safe, and fully functional military environments through timely and compliant contract actions, aligning with the Army’s broader installation readiness objectives. Cuenca maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of international contractors, primarily LINEA VERDE S.R.L., FIORINI IMPIANTI GROUP SRL, and NUOVA ELETTRICA S.R.L., all of which provide specialized engineering, electrical, and infrastructure services. These partnerships reflect a pattern of engaging experienced foreign vendors with proven technical capabilities in military-grade facility upgrades and maintenance. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, technical compliance, and adherence to international procurement regulations under DoD frameworks. Cuenca’s procurement activity shows a clear preference for full and open competition, with 100% of awards issued without set-aside designations such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. This reflects a strategic focus on sourcing specialized capabilities from qualified global providers rather than socioeconomic set-asides, indicating a mission-driven prioritization of technical expertise and operational readiness over socioeconomic contracting preferences. While NAICS classification data is not available, his acquisition patterns suggest deep expertise in facility construction, electrical systems integration, and infrastructure modernization—domains critical to sustaining Army garrison operations. His work centers on procuring high-reliability services for complex military environments, demonstrating a technical understanding of defense infrastructure requirements and lifecycle management practices.
