Daniel W. Bansek

Daniel W. Bansek serves as System Manager at W4GG Hq US Army Tacom, where he oversees the lifecycle acquisition and sustainment of ground combat and tactical wheeled vehicle systems. In this critical role, he ensures the integration of advanced engineering solutions and logistics support to maintain operational readiness across armored and support platforms. His procurement responsibilities center on fabricated structural metal systems, including vehicle chassis, armor assemblies, and modular mounting structures essential to survivability and mobility enhancements. Bansek works closely with engineering and logistics teams to align contracting actions with modernization priorities and fielded system requirements. He maintains long-standing partnerships with key industrial providers such as Schutt Industries of Clintonville, Wis., Inc., ONTIC ENGINEERING & MANUFACTURING, INC., A&M AEROSTRUCTURES, INC., and BOWHEAD AVIONICS MANUFACTURING, LLC, all of which deliver high-integrity metal fabrication and structural components for military vehicle platforms. These relationships are built on technical precision, quality assurance compliance, and consistent delivery of mission-critical hardware under stringent defense standards. Bansek’s contracting approach emphasizes reliability and performance over socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of his acquisitions conducted as full and open competition without any set-aside designations. His procurement portfolio is exclusively focused on NAICS 332312—Fabricated Structural Metal Manufacturing—reflecting deep specialization in the design and production of heavy-gauge steel and aluminum structures for tactical vehicle applications. He procures components such as armored hulls, turret mounts, blast-resistant frames, and integrated mounting systems that directly enhance vehicle protection, weight optimization, and modular upgradeability. Bansek’s expertise lies at the intersection of defense engineering requirements and industrial manufacturing capabilities, ensuring that procured systems meet rigorous military specifications for durability, interoperability, and battlefield performance.
