Jessica Pearson

Jessica Pearson supports the W6QK Acc-ri under the Department of the Army in managing critical procurement activities essential to sustaining and modernizing the U.S. Army’s industrial base for ordnance, precision components, and battlefield support systems. She oversees the acquisition of munitions manufacturing equipment, fabricated metal products, and specialized maintenance services that directly enable weapons system readiness and ammunition production lifecycle support. Her work ensures the timely delivery of mission-critical hardware and technical services aligned with Army modernization priorities, requiring deep familiarity with defense industrial supply chains and Federal Acquisition Regulation compliance. Pearson maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, FAXON MACHINING, LLC, PALANTIR USG INC, and Allied Metal Tech, LLC—partners selected for their technical expertise in precision machining, munitions component fabrication, and defense-grade software integration. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven capabilities in high-integrity manufacturing and defense logistics, often leveraging long-term performance histories to mitigate risk in mission-essential procurements. Her procurement strategy balances equity and capability, with an equal split between open competitions and Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. She actively prioritizes small business participation, ensuring that qualified small manufacturers and service providers have equitable access to contracts supporting the Army’s industrial base, without reliance on 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB-specific set-asides. Her primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 332993 (ammunition manufacturing), 333992 (welding and soldering equipment), and 332439 (metal container manufacturing), reflecting deep technical expertise in ordnance production infrastructure, industrial tooling, and specialized metal fabrication. She regularly sources precision-engineered components, maintenance services for munitions lines, and related industrial support systems critical to national defense readiness.
