Adria Hemmen

Adria Hemmen serves as a key procurement lead within the W6QK Acc-ri unit of the Department of the Army, responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain and modernize the Army’s industrial base for ordnance, precision components, and battlefield support systems. Focused on ensuring operational readiness, Hemmen oversees the acquisition of critical manufacturing and technical services essential to weapons systems lifecycle support, ammunition production, and field equipment maintenance. Their portfolio centers on high-precision fabrication, machine tooling, and technical design services, aligning with the agency’s mission to maintain a resilient, responsive industrial infrastructure for national defense. Hemmen maintains consistent partnerships with a core group of specialized contractors, including AMD International Technologies LLC, Faxon Machining, LLC, and Allied Metal Tech, LLC, all of which provide advanced metal fabrication, precision machining, and ordnance-related component manufacturing. Palantir USG Inc. is also a key collaborator, supporting data-driven logistics and maintenance planning. These relationships reflect a preference for niche, technically capable vendors with proven expertise in defense-grade production, fostering long-term, performance-based contracting arrangements grounded in quality assurance and supply chain reliability. Hemmen demonstrates an unwavering commitment to small business participation, with 100% of their acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to cultivate capacity among small, agile manufacturers and technical service providers, ensuring broad socioeconomic inclusion while maintaining mission-critical performance standards. No other set-aside categories are utilized, underscoring a singular focus on empowering small businesses across the defense industrial base. The sole NAICS code utilized in Hemmen’s procurement portfolio is 541430 (Graphic Design Services), which, in this context, refers to technical illustration, ordnance schematics, and digital manufacturing documentation for precision components. This specialization supports the development of detailed engineering drawings, assembly guides, and maintenance manuals critical to fielded weapon systems, revealing a unique and highly technical application of design services within the Army’s industrial modernization mission.
