Sonja M. Johnson Wills

Sonja M. Johnson Wills serves as a Contract Specialist within the 0409 AQ HQ Contract office under the Department of the Army, where she plays a pivotal role in executing facility sustainment and infrastructure support acquisitions critical to U.S. Army garrisons and overseas installations. She manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for maintenance, construction, and equipment servicing contracts that ensure operational readiness of airfields, utilities, and logistical infrastructure—particularly in European theaters. Her work directly supports the agency’s mission to sustain military community operations through timely, compliant, and mission-aligned contracting solutions, with a focus on complex, high-stakes acquisitions requiring coordination across multiple technical and logistical domains. Johnson Wills maintains consistent working relationships with PAE Applied Technologies LLC and BSH Hausgeräte B.V., two vendors with demonstrated capabilities in facility operations support and specialized equipment servicing. Her procurement patterns reflect a preference for established, large-scale contractors with proven experience in military infrastructure environments, indicating a reliance on proven performance and technical reliability over emergent or niche vendors. These partnerships are typically structured as indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) or task-order contracts, emphasizing performance-based service delivery and long-term operational continuity. Her contracting portfolio reflects a 100% no set-aside preference, indicating a strategic focus on full and open competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in her award patterns, she adheres strictly to FAR compliance and competitive acquisition procedures to ensure transparency and value. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 321920 (Wood Container and Pallet Manufacturing) and 532112 (Passenger Car Leasing), suggesting a unique blend of logistics support and mobility infrastructure needs—procuring custom pallet systems for deployment readiness alongside vehicle leasing arrangements to support personnel and equipment mobility across theater operations. This dual specialization underscores her technical fluency in both supply chain logistics and mobility asset management within austere environments.
