Detric Ross

Detric Ross serves as a key procurement lead within the W6QK Acc-ri unit of the Department of the Army, responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain and modernize the Army’s industrial base for ordnance, precision machining, and battlefield support systems. Focused on mission-critical lifecycle support for weapons systems and ammunition production, Ross oversees the acquisition of specialized industrial services, particularly in the domain of investigation and personal background check services, ensuring compliance, security clearance integrity, and workforce vetting for personnel handling sensitive munitions and defense technologies. Their procurement activities directly enable the readiness and operational security of Army industrial facilities and field maintenance units. Ross maintains established relationships with a core group of contractors including AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, FAXON MACHINING, LLC, PALANTIR USG INC, and Allied Metal Tech, LLC, all of which provide high-assurance industrial, analytical, and metal fabrication services. These partnerships reflect a preference for proven, technically capable vendors with demonstrated experience in defense-industrial environments. Contracting patterns indicate long-term, performance-based engagements rather than transactional purchases, emphasizing reliability, security protocols, and adherence to military specifications. Notably, Ross’s procurement portfolio reflects a 100% no set-aside approach, indicating a focus on technical capability and mission necessity over socioeconomic classifications. This pattern suggests a prioritization of specialized expertise and operational readiness, with awards granted based on technical merit, past performance, and compliance with stringent defense standards rather than socioeconomic preferences. The primary NAICS code 561611—Investigation and Personal Background Check Services—dominates Ross’s acquisition activity, underscoring deep expertise in security vetting, personnel screening, and background investigation services critical to safeguarding munitions production and defense infrastructure. This specialization highlights a niche but vital role in ensuring the integrity of the Army’s industrial workforce and supply chain security.
