YES the Trump appointeeS.
The contract was awarded in February 2021.
And just to be clear about WHO awarded the contract:
'The U.S. Postal Service awarded a 10-year contract to Oshkosh, WI,
based Oshkosh Defense, LLC to manufacture a new generation of U.S.-built
postal delivery vehicles.'

See, you're too ignorant to know that the USPS is a self-governing
agency that didn't need to get approval from Congress or the president.
At that time, the USPS Board of Governors consisted of:
David C. Williams, Chairman (Appointed by Trump)
John McLeod Barger, Vice-Chairman (Trump)
Robert M. Duncan, Governor (Trump)
Roman Martinez IV, Governor (Trump)
Ellen Williams, Governor (undetermined)
Ron Bloom, Governor (Trump)
Donald L. Moak (Trump)
William D. Zollars, Governor (Trump)
One apparently vacant Governor slot
Louis DeJoy, Postmaster General (Trump)
Ron Stroman, Deputy Postmaster General (Obama).
That's 8 out of 11.
And here's a shocker for you:
Oshkosh Defense, the winning contractor: who do you think they mostly
contribute to politically; by a ratio of more than 2:1 by dollars OR by
number of individuals?
Care to guess?
