Chante M. Fredrick

Chante M. Fredrick serves as a key procurement lead within the W6QK Acc-pica, a critical acquisition arm of the Department of the Army responsible for sustaining combat readiness through logistics, infrastructure, and operational support. Though formally unclassified in title, Fredrick manages a high-volume portfolio of service-based contracts aligned with the agency’s mission to modernize ammunition production, maintain installation infrastructure, and ensure uninterrupted force projection. Their work centers on acquiring non-tactical, mission-enabling services—particularly those supporting base operations, environmental compliance, and personnel readiness—with a strong emphasis on rapid contract execution and supply chain resilience. Fredrick maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of prime contractors including NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORPORATION, GENERAL DYNAMICS OTS (WILKES BARRE), LLC, THE LOCKWOOD GROUP LLC, LOGISYS TECHNICAL SERVICES INC, and PROGSIT LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established defense support vendors capable of delivering complex, long-term service integration across multiple installation sites. The contracting patterns indicate a reliance on firms with proven experience in military facility sustainment, munitions logistics, and technical services, often leveraging indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) and basic ordering agreements to meet dynamic operational demands. Fredrick’s procurement strategy is defined by a 100% total small business set-aside preference under FAR 19.5, reflecting an unwavering commitment to socioeconomic contracting. Every acquisition is structured to maximize participation from small businesses, with a deliberate focus on enabling diverse vendors to compete for mission-critical support services. This pattern underscores a deliberate alignment with Department of Defense mandates to broaden the industrial base and strengthen resilience through decentralized supplier networks. The primary NAICS focus areas—621910 (Ambulance Services), 721110 (Hotels and Motels), and 562991 (Septic Tank and Related Services)—reveal an unusual but strategically vital specialization in supporting military personnel quality of life and environmental health infrastructure. Fredrick’s expertise lies in procuring essential non-combat services that underpin operational continuity, from troop billeting and medical transport to sanitation and waste management systems critical to forward-deployed and garrisoned installations.
