Sonya D. Armstrong

Sonya D. Armstrong serves as a Contracting Officer at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center’s Glynco Procurement Office, where she leads the acquisition of mission-critical infrastructure and support services essential to federal law enforcement training and operational readiness. Her portfolio centers on the design, construction, and modernization of training facilities, including commercial and institutional buildings and related civil infrastructure such as access roads and perimeter systems. She ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while aligning acquisitions with the agency’s strategic goals to enhance training environments and maintain secure, resilient operational campuses. Armstrong maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors specializing in construction and facility support, including Diversified Fabricators & Erectors, Inc., Builders Supply Inc., and Contender Boats Inc. These partnerships reflect a pattern of sustained collaboration with vendors capable of delivering complex, code-compliant construction solutions and specialized equipment tailored to law enforcement training needs. Her procurement approach emphasizes reliability, performance, and long-term vendor accountability, fostering stable, performance-driven relationships with firms experienced in federal facility projects. Her contracting patterns demonstrate a balanced commitment to socioeconomic programs, with over one-third of her awards directed toward small business set-asides, including 8(a) competed and HUBZone contracts, while the majority remain open to full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on expanding small business participation without compromising mission requirements, particularly in technical domains requiring specialized expertise. Armstrong’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), with a secondary emphasis on NAICS 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction). She specializes in acquiring construction services for training buildings, indoor ranges, vehicle maneuvering courses, and supporting infrastructure, requiring deep familiarity with federal construction standards, safety protocols, and facility interoperability for law enforcement applications.
