SSG Millicent Andere

SSG Millicent Andere serves as a key procurement specialist within the 0413 Aq Hq Rco-hi, a Department of the Army organization responsible for sustaining military readiness across the Pacific region. She manages acquisition programs focused on mission-enabling infrastructure, environmental compliance, and installation support services, ensuring operational continuity through timely and compliant contracting. Her portfolio centers on specialized manufacturing and facility-related services critical to Army installation resilience, with an emphasis on rapid response and regulatory adherence. Andere operates within the full spectrum of federal acquisition regulations, executing contracts that support energy systems, waste management, and technical infrastructure needs across remote and high-demand operational environments. She maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including HAMASAKI CONSTRUCTION LLC, PHOENIX V LLC, SURECAN LLC, HONOLULU DISPOSAL SERVICE, INC., and PERRY MANAGEMENT CORP OF SOUTH DAKOTA, L.L.C. These partnerships reflect a preference for regional and specialized vendors capable of delivering tailored solutions in logistics, waste handling, and niche manufacturing. Andere fosters collaborative, performance-driven relationships, prioritizing vendors with proven capacity to meet stringent military standards and rapid deployment timelines under austere conditions. Andere’s procurement strategy is uniformly dedicated to small business participation, with 100% of her acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate and sustained commitment to socioeconomic contracting, ensuring that small, locally rooted firms—particularly those with expertise in specialized manufacturing and environmental services—have equitable access to mission-critical opportunities. Her approach reinforces the Army’s broader goal of building resilient, community-integrated supply chains. Her primary NAICS focus lies in 326199 (All Other Plastics Product Manufacturing) and 339999 (All Other Miscellaneous Manufacturing), indicating a specialization in custom-engineered components, non-standard plastic fixtures, and unique manufacturing solutions for military infrastructure. She procures highly specialized, non-commodity items critical to facility maintenance, environmental containment, and mission-specific equipment, demonstrating deep technical fluency in industrial manufacturing domains supporting defense readiness.
