Terrhonda C. Mills

Terrhonda C. Mills serves as a Contract Specialist with the W6QM Micc-ft Benning under the Department of the Army, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions that sustain military installation readiness. Her responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle of procurement—from solicitation and source selection to contract award and administration—ensuring compliance with FAR regulations and Army-specific requirements. She primarily manages construction and facilities support contracts that enable safe, functional, and resilient training and garrison environments across Fort Benning’s operational footprint. Her work directly supports the agency’s strategic priorities in infrastructure integrity, logistical sustainment, and human capital development. Mills cultivates collaborative relationships with a diverse pool of contractors specializing in civil construction and facilities services. While no single vendor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages with firms capable of delivering complex, multi-disciplinary services under performance-based contracting frameworks. Her approach emphasizes vendor reliability, past performance evaluation, and adherence to safety and environmental standards, fostering long-term partnerships with contractors who demonstrate technical proficiency and operational flexibility in austere environments. A strong advocate for socioeconomic inclusion, Mills consistently prioritizes small business participation, with approximately two-thirds of her acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to empower small, locally based firms and promote economic resilience within the surrounding communities. Her contracting patterns show minimal use of large, unrestricted awards, underscoring a sustained commitment to broadening the contractor base and advancing equitable access to federal opportunities. Her procurement focus is concentrated in three core NAICS categories: Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction (237310); Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (236220); and Facilities Support Services (561210). She specializes in acquiring infrastructure repair, maintenance, and operational support services essential to sustaining Army training readiness, including site grading, utilities integration, building renovation, and base-wide custodial and groundskeeping functions. Her technical expertise lies in managing integrated construction and service contracts that align with DoD installation resilience standards.
