Daniel Dunn

MAJ Daniel Dunn serves as a contracting officer within the W6GZ Electrical and Munitions Supply Division under the Department of the Army, where he plays a critical role in acquiring ordnance systems, small arms, and tactical support equipment essential to sustaining combat-ready forces. His procurement responsibilities center on ensuring operational readiness through the timely acquisition of mission-critical materiel, including ammunition, ordnance accessories, and specialized training systems. He manages full lifecycle contracts from solicitation to award and administration, aligning acquisitions with Army modernization priorities and field unit requirements. MAJ Dunn collaborates with a diverse base of defense industrial base vendors, including manufacturers of small arms and military-grade ordnance components, as well as providers of technical training and maintenance services. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages with qualified suppliers possessing relevant ITAR compliance, DOD quality certifications, and technical expertise in military-specification hardware. His working relationships emphasize reliability, technical precision, and adherence to federal acquisition regulations, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in performance and compliance. MAJ Dunn’s contracting activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of his acquisitions conducted under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on maximizing market access and leveraging the broadest possible industrial base to meet urgent operational needs. While he does not prioritize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, his approach ensures competitive rigor and technical suitability over socioeconomic categorization. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 332994 (Small Arms, Ordnance, and Ordnance Accessories Manufacturing), followed by 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing), 336120 (Heavy Duty Truck Manufacturing), 423110 (Automobile and Other Motor Vehicle Merchant Wholesalers), and 611512 (Flight Training). He specializes in acquiring ruggedized military vehicles, ammunition handling systems, small arms platforms, and related technical training solutions, demonstrating deep domain expertise in ground and air ordnance sustainment.
