Emily A. Pellegrino

Emily A. Pellegrino serves as a key procurement professional within the W6QK Acc-pica organization under the Department of the Army, responsible for managing complex acquisitions that sustain military readiness through defense manufacturing, facility services, and operational support systems. She plays a central role in advancing the agency’s mission to modernize ammunition production, maintain critical installation infrastructure, and ensure resilient logistics and munitions supply chains. Her portfolio primarily encompasses professional, scientific, and technical services, with a strong emphasis on engineering, research and development, and mission-critical technical support contracts that enable force projection and combat system sustainment. Pellegrino maintains consistent working relationships with leading defense contractors including NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORPORATION, GENERAL DYNAMICS OTS (WILKES BARRE), LLC, and THE LOCKWOOD GROUP LLC, among others. These partnerships reflect a preference for established, high-capacity vendors capable of delivering integrated technical solutions across multiple domains, including weapons system support, facility modernization, and logistics automation. Her contracting approach prioritizes performance reliability, technical sophistication, and mission alignment over socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of her awards issued under full and open competition. Pellegrino does not utilize socioeconomic set-aside programs such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, and all her acquisitions are conducted under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on mission-critical capability and technical maturity rather than socioeconomic contracting objectives, aligning with the agency’s emphasis on rapid deployment and operational continuity. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541990 (All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services), complemented by significant activity in engineering services (541330) and research and development across physical and life sciences (541714 and 541715). She routinely procures advanced technical services supporting ammunition manufacturing, systems integration, facility sustainment, and defense-related R&D, demonstrating deep expertise in mission-critical defense technology domains.
