Yvonne M. Evangelista

Yvonne Evangelista serves as the RCO GTMO Director for the 0410 Aq Hq Contract Office under the Department of the Army, where she leads the acquisition and management of mission-enabling goods and services critical to Army installation readiness and force support operations. Her role encompasses the full lifecycle of procurement—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning with strategic readiness objectives. She oversees contracts for logistical, hospitality, transportation, and administrative support systems essential to sustaining personnel welfare and operational continuity across both garrison and deployed environments. While specific contractor names are not currently available, Evangelista maintains a procurement environment structured to foster robust partnerships with small business vendors, particularly those certified under socioeconomic programs. Her office consistently engages with a network of qualified small businesses, emphasizing collaboration, performance accountability, and long-term vendor development to ensure resilient supply chains and responsive service delivery. Evangelista demonstrates an unwavering commitment to small business participation, directing 100% of her acquisitions toward total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize economic opportunity for small businesses, including HUBZone, SDVOSB, and WOSB concerns, ensuring equitable access to federal contracting opportunities while strengthening the industrial base supporting Army operations. Her procurement focus is concentrated in two primary NAICS categories: 332722 for the manufacturing of fasteners such as bolts, nuts, screws, rivets, and washers, and 335210 for the production of small electrical appliances. These reflect a technical domain centered on durable, mission-critical hardware and support equipment used in facility maintenance, field operations, and infrastructure sustainment. Evangelista’s expertise lies in ensuring the quality, standardization, and timely delivery of these specialized components to meet stringent military specifications.
