He executes complex acquisition strategies aligned with Department of the Army modernization priorities, ensuring timely delivery of mission-critical munitions systems through compliant, transparent contracting practices. His portfolio primarily encompasses fabricated metal products essential to warfighting platforms, including casings, fuzes, and specialized ordnance housings, requiring strict adherence to military specifications and defense supply chain security protocols. Olszewski collaborates closely with a network of small business manufacturers certified under federal socioeconomic programs, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in quality assurance, delivery reliability, and defense industrial base resilience. While specific contractor names are not disclosed, his contracting patterns reflect consistent engagement with agile, niche fabricators capable of meeting stringent DoD technical and security requirements. He actively cultivates relationships with firms possessing specialized machining, welding, and explosive-compatible material expertise, emphasizing performance-based outcomes and supply chain traceability. A staunch advocate for small business participation, Olszewski directs 100% of his procurements toward full small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, ensuring equitable access for small, independently owned manufacturers to high-impact defense contracts. His approach reinforces the Joint Munitions Command’s commitment to sustaining a robust, diversified industrial base, with a deliberate focus on empowering small businesses that contribute uniquely to national security manufacturing capacity. His technical expertise centers on NAICS 332999—All Other Miscellaneous Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing—where he specializes in procuring precision-engineered metal components for munitions systems, including those requiring non-ferrous alloys, blast-resistant finishes, and compliance with MIL-STD and DOT hazardous materials regulations. He brings deep familiarity with defense-specific fabrication processes, including stamping, casting, and assembly of ordnance-related hardware, ensuring acquisitions align with both technical performance and safety standards.
