TSgt Caitlyn Hart

TSgt Caitlyn Hart supports the W7NX Uspfo Activity Paang 193 in executing mission-critical procurement activities for the Department of the Army, ensuring the sustained readiness of military installations through the acquisition of infrastructure, security, and operational support services. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on facility maintenance, physical access control systems, and mission-enabling support functions, aligning acquisitions with the agency’s strategic priorities in base modernization and force projection. Her role involves end-to-end contract administration, from requirement validation and market research to award and performance monitoring, ensuring compliance with FAR and DoD acquisition regulations. Hart maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including Uhrig Construction Inc., TideWater Distributors LLC, and ARHAB LLC, reflecting a preference for established vendors with proven capabilities in construction, industrial equipment maintenance, and specialized logistics support. Her procurement patterns indicate a reliance on experienced contractors capable of delivering complex, mission-critical services under tight operational timelines, often requiring coordination across multiple technical domains and installation sites. While the majority of her acquisitions are open to all competitors, she consistently allocates approximately one-third of her portfolio to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to small business participation without favoring specific socioeconomic categories such as 8(a) or HUBZone. This balanced approach supports vendor diversity while prioritizing capability and reliability. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 722310 (food service contractors), 811310 (commercial and industrial machinery repair), and 311999 (miscellaneous food manufacturing), indicating a need for both facility sustainment and garrison support services. She also regularly procures specialized maintenance for non-automotive industrial equipment and mission-support systems, reflecting expertise in integrated facility operations and installation resilience.
