Valerie Perry

Valerie Perry supports the procurement mission of W6QM Micc-ft Knox under the Department of the Army, facilitating critical acquisitions that sustain military readiness through hospitality, food service, and recreational infrastructure. Though her official title is not listed, her role centers on managing contract execution for facilities and services essential to troop welfare and operational continuity. She handles a diverse portfolio of procurements ranging from lodging and dining systems to recreational equipment and technical support infrastructure, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and alignment with the Army’s quality-of-life priorities. Her work directly enables the sustainment of training tempo and morale across installations. Perry maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including CHENEGA GOVERNMENT MISSION SOLUTIONS, LLC, OCS-NCS JV II, LLC, and SPACE AGE ENGINEERING, INC., among others. These partnerships reflect a preference for established vendors capable of delivering integrated solutions in hospitality operations, technical equipment, and custom apparel for military use. Her contracting patterns suggest a reliance on experienced contractors with proven track records in government-facing service delivery, often involving complex, multi-year task orders requiring stringent performance metrics and compliance oversight. A strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting is evident in her preference for Small Business Set-Asides, which account for 66.7% of her awards under FAR 19.5. This demonstrates a deliberate focus on fostering opportunities for small businesses, including those certified under 8(a), HUBZone, and SDVOSB programs, aligning with Department of Defense mandates to increase small business participation. Her contracting approach balances mission-critical needs with statutory goals for inclusive economic opportunity. Her primary NAICS focus includes manufacturing sectors such as 334310 (audio and video equipment), 335911 (other electronic component manufacturing), and 334118 (computer peripheral equipment), alongside 541613 (marketing consulting services). This indicates expertise in procuring both hardware for recreational and communications infrastructure and specialized support services to enhance operational effectiveness and user engagement across military installations.
