Gloria Thoguluva

Gloria Thoguluva serves as a secondary procurement professional within the W6QK Acc-pica organization under the Department of the Army, supporting the acquisition of critical defense manufacturing, facility services, and operational support systems essential to military readiness. She contributes to the agency’s mission of sustaining combat systems and modernizing ammunition production capabilities by facilitating the execution of complex contracts for technical and logistics services. Her work primarily involves supporting the procurement lifecycle for high-priority defense infrastructure and munitions-related systems, ensuring alignment with Army modernization priorities and supply chain resilience goals. Thoguluva maintains consistent working relationships with key defense contractors including NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORPORATION, GENERAL DYNAMICS OTS (WILKES BARRE), LLC, and THE LOCKWOOD GROUP LLC, alongside specialized service providers such as LOGISYS TECHNICAL SERVICES INC and PROGSIT LLC. These partnerships reflect a reliance on established industry leaders with proven capabilities in defense manufacturing, technical support, and systems integration. Her contracting patterns indicate a preference for experienced prime contractors capable of delivering mission-critical solutions under stringent DoD compliance standards. While the majority of her acquisitions—82.5%—are conducted without set-asides, she actively supports small business participation through Total Small Business Set-Asides, consistently allocating approximately 17.5% of opportunities to qualified small businesses under FAR 19.5. This reflects a balanced approach that prioritizes mission effectiveness while fostering a competitive small business ecosystem within the defense industrial base. Her procurement focus centers on NAICS codes including 513210 (Software Publishers) for defense software development, 332992 (Small Arms Ammunition Manufacturing) for munitions production, and 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing) for test and evaluation equipment. She also regularly procures professional training services under 611430 and other computer-related services under 541519, demonstrating expertise in both hardware and technical service domains critical to Army operational sustainment.
