His role centers on integrating operational requirements with acquisition strategy to procure advanced training systems, command and control infrastructure, and technical services that enhance pilot readiness and tactical communications.

He maintains sustained working relationships with key contractors including VETPRIDE-EMI Maintenance Solutions, LLC, MILTRAIN JV II LLC, and JBW FEDITC JV LLC, all of which provide specialized engineering, systems integration, and training support services. These partnerships reflect a preference for established joint ventures and experienced defense contractors capable of delivering scalable, secure, and interoperable solutions under tight operational timelines. McClenney’s procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and outcome-driven deliverables, fostering collaborative vendor engagement to meet evolving combat training and C2 system demands. McClenney’s portfolio exhibits a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of awards issued under no set-aside categories.
