Yomara Lourido serves as a key procurement lead within the W7PA Uspfo Activity Prang 156, supporting the Department of the Army’s mission to sustain operational readiness for the Puerto Rico Air National Guard. She manages the full lifecycle of acquisitions focused on mission-critical infrastructure, particularly facility maintenance and utility systems essential to aircraft hangars, barracks, and support facilities. Her work ensures compliance with federal contracting regulations while aligning procurement actions with strategic readiness goals. Lourido specializes in design-build and service-based contracts, overseeing solicitations that require technical expertise in building systems and environmental compliance. Her primary contractor relationship is with ICON CORP, a trusted partner in delivering high-quality mechanical and infrastructure services. Lourido fosters long-term, performance-based vendor partnerships characterized by consistent contract performance, proactive communication, and adherence to technical specifications. These relationships are built on reliability and compliance, with a preference for contractors demonstrating proven experience in military facility sustainment and rapid-response maintenance capabilities. Lourido maintains a 100% Total Small Business Set-Aside policy across all procurements under her purview, reflecting a strong institutional commitment to socioeconomic contracting. She consistently channels opportunities to small businesses, ensuring maximum participation from firms certified under FAR 19.5, with no reliance on large business prime contractors.
