Carla D'Errico

Carla D’Errico serves as a Procurement Analyst within the W6QK Acc-apg unit of the Department of the Army (W91CRB), where she plays a pivotal role in executing complex acquisitions for advanced military sensing, communications, and battlefield analytics systems. Her responsibilities include preparing solicitation documents, evaluating technical proposals, and ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations for engineering services critical to next-generation intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities. She supports the agency’s mission to modernize tactical communications networks and deploy aeronautical instrumentation platforms by facilitating timely, compliant, and technically sound procurement actions that align with DoD innovation priorities. Carla collaborates closely with a broad spectrum of defense contractors specializing in systems engineering, RF platform development, and data analytics, though no single vendor dominates her award portfolio. She maintains a vendor-agnostic approach, prioritizing technical merit, past performance, and compliance over sole-source dependencies. Her working relationships are characterized by proactive engagement with industry during pre-solicitation phases, ensuring requirements are clearly defined and competitive markets are fostered. Carla’s procurement activities reflect a strict preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without set-asides for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic programs. This reflects the agency’s operational urgency and the specialized nature of its technical requirements, which often demand highly qualified, non-traditional defense contractors with proven capabilities in classified or sensitive domains. Her primary focus is on NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services), encompassing systems engineering, signal processing, and integrated sensor development for aeronautical and radio frequency platforms. She regularly procures services related to battlefield data analytics, electromagnetic spectrum management, and real-time intelligence fusion systems, demonstrating deep familiarity with the technical and regulatory demands of modernizing Army tactical networks.
