Christina M. Lewis

Christina M. Lewis serves as a Contract Specialist within the W6QK Acc-rsa office of the Department of the Army, where she plays a pivotal role in executing complex acquisitions to sustain and modernize the Army’s aerial and missile defense systems. She manages the full lifecycle of contracts for mission-critical aerospace technologies, including avionics, propulsion systems, sensor integration, and guided missile components supporting platforms such as the UH-60 Black Hawk and AH-64 Apache. Her work directly supports the agency’s strategic imperative to enhance battlefield superiority through cutting-edge defense capabilities, ensuring timely delivery of high-priority technical solutions aligned with Army modernization goals. Christina collaborates with a diverse range of defense contractors and research institutions specializing in aerospace engineering and systems integration. While no single vendor dominates her portfolio, she routinely engages with prime contractors and tiered subcontractors possessing deep expertise in defense-grade software, hardware certification, and systems engineering. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous technical evaluation, and compliance with DoD acquisition regulations, fostering long-term partnerships grounded in technical excellence and mission alignment. Christina’s procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without set-asides. This indicates a focus on securing the most technically capable solutions from the broadest possible pool of qualified vendors, prioritizing capability over socioeconomic categorization. While small business participation is not formally targeted in her portfolio, she ensures compliance with all applicable socioeconomic requirements and remains responsive to qualified small business offerings when they meet stringent technical criteria. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541715 (Research and Development in Physical and Engineering Sciences), where she leads acquisitions for advanced aerospace R&D, and NAICS 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services), supporting the integration of mission-critical software architectures. Her technical domain expertise centers on real-time data processing, radar signal analysis, flight control systems, and secure communications infrastructure essential to next-generation air and missile defense operations.
