Jessica M. Hellams

Jessica M. Hellams serves as a Contract Specialist within the 0906 Aq Co Contracting Bat under the Department of the Army, where she plays a critical role in executing acquisition strategies to sustain and modernize overseas military infrastructure. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of contracts for facility construction, utility system upgrades, and modular infrastructure projects essential to operational readiness in high-priority theaters. She specializes in complex, mission-critical procurements involving construction, logistics support, and specialized equipment, ensuring compliance with federal regulations and Army installation standards. Hellams works closely with engineering and logistics teams to align contracting actions with strategic force posture objectives. Hellams maintains a focused contractor relationship with PYUNGTAEK ENVIRONMENT CO., LTD, which consistently delivers specialized environmental and infrastructure services for overseas installations. Her procurement pattern reflects a preference for established, performance-driven vendors with proven capabilities in overseas operations, particularly those experienced in military-grade construction and maintenance. While the majority of her contracts are awarded through full and open competition, she engages a limited network of pre-vetted contractors with demonstrated expertise in rapid-deployment solutions and resilience engineering. Her set-aside preferences show a strong orientation toward full and open competition, with 88.2% of awards issued without socioeconomic set-asides. However, she actively supports small business participation through 8(a) competed contracts, which account for 11.8% of her awards, reflecting a measured but intentional commitment to socioeconomic goals without compromising mission requirements. Hellams’ procurement portfolio is concentrated in NAICS codes related to highway and bridge construction (237310) and household/office goods moving (484210), indicating a focus on transportation-linked infrastructure and logistics support. She also manages specialized procurements in crane and hoist system manufacturing (333923), drycleaning services (812320), and religious organization support (813110), reflecting the diverse, mission-enabling needs of overseas garrisons. Her expertise lies in integrating technical, logistical, and regulatory requirements to deliver resilient, mission-ready infrastructure in austere environments.
