Alison L Peters

Alison Peters serves as the primary contracting lead for the W6QK Acc-apg under the Department of the Army’s W91CRB organization, where she oversees the acquisition of advanced sensing, communications, and battlefield data analytics systems. Her role is central to modernizing the Army’s tactical intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities, managing complex procurements for next-generation aeronautical instrumentation, radio frequency platforms, and real-time signal processing systems. She interfaces directly with defense contractors and research partners to ensure timely delivery of mission-critical technologies aligned with the Department of Defense’s modernization priorities, with a focus on rapid prototyping and field-deployable solutions. Peters works closely with a diverse ecosystem of defense technology providers, including specialized engineering firms, electronics manufacturers, and systems integrators capable of delivering ruggedized, high-performance components for contested environments. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, her procurement patterns reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in electromagnetic systems, embedded signal processing, and secure tactical communications. She fosters collaborative relationships with firms that can meet stringent military specifications and support rapid iteration cycles under tight operational timelines. Her contracting approach is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of acquisitions conducted under open competition, indicating a primary emphasis on technical capability and performance over socioeconomic preferences. This reflects the urgent, mission-critical nature of her portfolio, where speed, precision, and system interoperability take precedence over socioeconomic targeting. Peters’ procurement focus is concentrated in four key NAICS categories: Other Electronic Component Manufacturing (334419), Engineering Services (541330), Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing (334519), and Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing (334290). She routinely procures custom RF modules, battlefield data loggers, avionics interfaces, and secure waveform-enabled radios, demonstrating deep technical fluency in electronic warfare, sensor fusion, and tactical network modernization.
