Andrew Buslepp

Andrew Buslepp serves as a Contract Specialist at W4GG Hq US Army Tacom, where he plays a critical role in executing the lifecycle acquisition and sustainment of ground combat and support vehicle systems. He manages complex procurement actions for armored vehicle platforms, tactical wheeled systems, and associated ordnance components, ensuring alignment with the Department of Defense’s modernization and readiness objectives. His work spans the full acquisition lifecycle—from requirements validation and market research to contract award and performance monitoring—supporting the technical integration of advanced survivability, mobility, and power systems for armored fleets. Buslepp maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of specialized defense contractors, including Schutt Industries of Clintonville, Wis., Inc., ONTIC ENGINEERING & MANUFACTURING, INC., A&M AEROSTRUCTURES, INC., and BOWHEAD AVIONICS MANUFACTURING, LLC. These partnerships reflect a focus on high-precision manufacturing, avionics integration, and armored structure fabrication. His contracting patterns emphasize long-term vendor collaboration with firms possessing deep domain expertise in military vehicle systems, often requiring specialized certifications and engineering capabilities to meet stringent DoD technical standards. His procurement portfolio is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition, indicating a prioritization of technical capability and performance over socioeconomic preferences. This reflects the mission-critical nature of the systems acquired, where performance, reliability, and rapid sustainment outweigh socioeconomic targeting criteria. Buslepp’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336112 (Motor Vehicle Body and Trailer Manufacturing) and 336992 (Military Armored Vehicle, Tank, and Tank Component Manufacturing), underscoring his specialization in the design, production, and integration of armored ground systems. He routinely procures components such as ballistic armor plating, suspension systems, powertrain modules, and embedded combat electronics, demonstrating deep technical fluency in military vehicle engineering and logistics sustainment.
