Chief Engineer

Adam Lichtenberg-Scanlan serves as Chief Engineer within the W6QK Acc-pica, a critical acquisition arm of the Department of the Army responsible for sustaining combat systems and enabling force projection through reliable logistics and munitions supply chains. In this technical leadership role, he oversees the procurement of engineering services essential to modernizing ammunition production, maintaining installation infrastructure, and supporting operational readiness. His portfolio is exclusively focused on engineering services, where he ensures technical compliance, lifecycle support, and system integration for defense manufacturing and facility systems. As the primary technical authority in contracting decisions, he bridges engineering requirements with acquisition execution to deliver mission-critical capabilities. Lichtenberg-Scanlan maintains long-standing partnerships with leading defense contractors including NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORPORATION, GENERAL DYNAMICS OTS (WILKES BARRE), LLC, and THE LOCKWOOD GROUP LLC, all of which provide high-assurance engineering solutions for complex military systems. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established, high-capacity vendors with proven track records in defense-grade engineering, systems integration, and technical support services. These relationships are characterized by sustained performance, technical collaboration, and repeat engagement across multiple contract vehicles, indicating a reliance on trusted industry partners with deep domain expertise. There is no set-aside preference in his procurement activity; 100% of his awards are competed open, reflecting a mission-driven focus on technical capability and readiness over socioeconomic classifications. While small business participation is not formally prioritized, his contracting decisions remain fully compliant with all federal acquisition regulations and emphasize merit-based selection based on technical merit and past performance. His procurement activity is entirely concentrated under NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services), encompassing systems engineering, mechanical and electrical design, test and evaluation, and facility engineering for defense installations. He specializes in procurements requiring advanced technical expertise in munitions production systems, ordnance handling infrastructure, and logistics support equipment, ensuring that all acquisitions meet stringent DoD technical and safety standards.
