Ilana Bohren

Ilana Bohren serves as a Contract Specialist within the W4MM USA Joint Munitions Command, a critical component of the Department of Defense responsible for the end-to-end lifecycle management of conventional ammunition and explosives. In this role, she executes complex procurement actions aligned with Army readiness objectives, managing the acquisition of technical systems and services essential to the production, storage, distribution, and demilitarization of munitions. Her work ensures operational continuity for land, air, and naval forces by facilitating timely and compliant contract awards that support national defense priorities, with a strong emphasis on regulatory adherence, risk mitigation, and supply chain integrity. While specific contractor names are not publicly identifiable in available data, Bohren engages with a broad spectrum of defense-industrial base vendors, including prime contractors and specialized subcontractors experienced in explosives handling, ammunition manufacturing, and ordnance logistics. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established defense suppliers with proven technical capabilities in munitions systems, often requiring stringent compliance with MIL-STD specifications and Department of Defense safety protocols. She maintains professional, performance-driven relationships grounded in transparency, accountability, and mission-critical delivery timelines. Bohren’s procurement portfolio is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of her acquisitions awarded under full and open competition. This reflects the specialized, high-risk nature of munitions-related requirements, which often necessitate unique technical expertise, security clearances, and infrastructure not widely available among small businesses. While socioeconomic set-asides are not utilized in her current portfolio, her approach remains fully compliant with FAR and DFARS requirements, ensuring equitable opportunity where feasible within the constraints of national security imperatives. Her primary procurement focus is centered on NAICS 511210—Software Publishers—which, in this context, refers to the acquisition of mission-critical software systems for ammunition inventory management, logistics tracking, and automated ordnance safety systems. She specializes in procuring enterprise-grade software platforms, digital simulation tools, and data integration solutions that enhance the precision, traceability, and safety of munitions operations across the joint force.
