Abigail Baltimore

Abigail L. Baltimore serves as a Contract Specialist with the W4MM USA Joint Munitions Command, where she plays a critical role in executing the lifecycle acquisition of conventional ammunition and explosives to sustain operational readiness for U.S. land, air, and naval forces. Her responsibilities include planning, soliciting, negotiating, and administering contracts for specialized munitions-related equipment and support services, ensuring compliance with FAR, DFARS, and Army-specific procurement policies. She supports the Command’s strategic mission of modernizing warfighting capabilities and enhancing supply chain resilience through timely, compliant, and mission-driven acquisitions. While specific contractor names are not disclosed in available data, Abigail routinely engages with a diverse pool of vendors across manufacturing and logistics sectors, fostering partnerships with both large-tier suppliers and small businesses capable of meeting stringent defense quality and safety standards. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for competitive sealed bidding and negotiated acquisitions, with a focus on technical specifications aligned with military ammunition standards, including packaging, storage, and demilitarization requirements. Abigail demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with approximately 21% of her acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. Though no specific socioeconomic set-asides (e.g., 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB) are dominant in the data, her consistent use of small business set-asides reflects a deliberate effort to expand vendor diversity and strengthen the defense industrial base through inclusive contracting practices. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 339991 (gasket and sealing device manufacturing), NAICS 333414 (heating equipment), and NAICS 621910 (ambulance services), indicating a broad but targeted scope that includes mission-critical components for munitions handling, thermal regulation in storage environments, and emergency response logistics. She brings technical expertise in procurement for defense-specific hardware, safety-compliant packaging, and specialized support services integral to the safe lifecycle management of explosive ordnance.
