Jessica Phillips

Jessica M. Phillips serves as a key procurement lead within the W6QK Acc-ri, a Department of the Army organization responsible for sustaining and modernizing the U.S. Army’s industrial base for ordnance, precision components, and battlefield support systems. She manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions spanning industrial manufacturing, machine tooling, and maintenance services critical to weapons system readiness and ammunition production. Her work ensures the timely delivery of mission-critical hardware and repair capabilities, aligning with the agency’s strategic focus on industrial resilience and battlefield logistics. Phillips handles both full and open competitions and set-aside contracts under FAR Part 19, emphasizing technical precision and supply chain reliability. She maintains consistent contracting relationships with specialized industrial contractors including AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, FAXON MACHINING, LLC, PALANTIR USG INC, and Allied Metal Tech, LLC, all of which provide high-precision fabrication, analytical instrumentation, and advanced maintenance services. Her procurement patterns reflect a preference for vendors with proven capabilities in defense-grade manufacturing and systems integration, often requiring ITAR compliance and AS9100 certification. These partnerships are characterized by long-term reliability, technical adaptability, and performance-based contracting approaches. Phillips demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 40% of her acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, while 60% remain open to all competitors. She prioritizes small business inclusion without compromising mission requirements, frequently leveraging standard small business set-asides rather than specialized socioeconomic programs like 8(a) or HUBZone, indicating a focus on capability over certification type. Her primary NAICS focus areas include 325120 (Industrial Gas Manufacturing), 335999 (Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment), 335129 (Other Semiconductor and Related Device Manufacturing), 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing), and 811310 (Commercial and Industrial Machinery Repair). These reflect deep expertise in procuring precision components, diagnostic instrumentation, and maintenance services essential to munitions production and field equipment sustainment.
