Yudi A. Carmona

Yudi A. Carmona serves as an Acquisition Specialist at Washington Headquarters Services, supporting the Department of Defense’s mission to modernize institutional management systems and enhance enterprise-wide operational efficiency. In this role, Carmona manages the full lifecycle of complex service acquisitions, with a focus on professional, technical, and administrative support contracts. They ensure compliance with FAR and DFARS regulations while aligning procurement strategies with WHS’s priorities in digital transformation and resource optimization. Carmona routinely handles contracts for IT modernization, management consulting, and mission-critical support services that enable seamless DoD enterprise functions. Carmona maintains established relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including CLARITY INNOVATIONS LLC, CYNERGY PROFESSIONAL SYSTEMS LLC, SIGNATURE RENOVATIONS LLC, AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, and GUIDEHOUSE INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in government-facing technical services, systems integration, and administrative support. Carmona fosters collaborative, performance-driven contracting relationships, emphasizing quality, compliance, and timely delivery of mission-critical solutions across multiple DoD components. Set-aside preferences are overwhelmingly aligned with open competition, with 94.1% of acquisitions conducted without socioeconomic set-asides. Only 5.9% are designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, indicating a strategic focus on competitive, best-value outcomes rather than mandated small business participation. While small business engagement is not the primary procurement driver, Carmona ensures all acquisitions adhere to statutory requirements and promote fair competition across all vendor categories. Carmona’s procurement portfolio is heavily concentrated in NAICS 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services) and 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), reflecting a strong emphasis on software development, systems integration, and IT modernization. Additional focus areas include administrative management consulting (541611), translation and interpretation services (541930), and educational support services (611710). This specialization underscores deep expertise in procuring technical and professional services that underpin DoD’s digital transformation and institutional efficiency goals.
