Frank J Corradi

Frank J. Corradi serves as a Contract Specialist within the W6QK Acc-pica organization under the Department of the Army, where he plays a pivotal role in executing complex defense acquisitions aligned with military readiness objectives. He manages the full lifecycle of contracts supporting ammunition production, facility services, and operational systems critical to force projection and sustainment. His portfolio emphasizes technical and engineering services, with a focus on research and development, computer systems design, and specialized manufacturing. Corradi ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while facilitating timely delivery of mission-critical capabilities to Army installations and combat units. Corradi maintains established working relationships with leading defense contractors including Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, General Dynamics OTS (Wilkes-Barre), LLC, and Pioneering Decisive Solutions Inc., among others. These partnerships reflect a pattern of engagement with Tier-1 defense primes and specialized mid-tier vendors capable of delivering high-assurance systems for munitions production, logistics automation, and facility modernization. His procurement approach prioritizes proven technical capability, past performance, and supply chain reliability, often leveraging indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) and cost-reimbursement contract types to accommodate evolving operational requirements. While the majority of his acquisitions—87.5%—are conducted without set-asides, Corradi maintains a consistent 12.5% allocation to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for qualified small businesses in the defense industrial base. He actively supports socioeconomic contracting goals by ensuring small businesses are considered for eligible requirements, particularly in technical services and niche manufacturing domains. His primary NAICS focus includes 541712 for physical and engineering R&D, 332993 for ammunition manufacturing, and 541511/541512 for custom and systems design services. He specializes in procuring advanced engineering solutions, automated production systems, and mission-critical software platforms that enhance the Army’s ammunition infrastructure and operational resilience.
