Justin B. Rocha

Justin B. Rocha serves as a key procurement lead within the W6QK Acc-apg Cont Ct Software Sector under the Department of the Army, overseeing the acquisition of mission-critical software systems, wireless communications infrastructure, and secure data platforms that enable battlefield command and control. His work directly supports Army modernization initiatives by ensuring the timely delivery of resilient, interoperable IT capabilities for distributed operations. Rocha specializes in complex, technology-driven contracts involving cybersecurity-enhanced communications systems, networked intelligence platforms, and field-deployable software solutions, often navigating stringent DoD compliance standards such as NIST SP 800-53 and DFARS clauses. He maintains strategic relationships with major defense and telecommunications contractors, including British Telecommunications Public Limited Company and Liberty Communications, Inc., partnering with firms capable of delivering enterprise-grade wireless systems and mission-specific software integration. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established industry players with proven track records in secure communications, while also engaging specialized service providers like Southwestern Industrial Contractors & Riggers, Inc. for technical maintenance and field support. These partnerships are typically structured under indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) and performance-based acquisition frameworks. Rocha’s procurement portfolio demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 25% of contracts set aside for total small business concerns under FAR 19.5. While the majority of awards are unrestricted, his consistent use of small business set-asides reflects a deliberate effort to broaden vendor diversity and foster innovation from emerging defense technology providers. His primary technical focus lies in NAICS 334220 for wireless communications equipment manufacturing and NAICS 811210 for electronic equipment repair and maintenance, indicating deep expertise in procuring both hardware infrastructure and sustainment services for tactical networks. Rocha’s acquisitions prioritize ruggedized, field-deployable systems that meet Army-specific requirements for electromagnetic compatibility, encryption, and rapid field repairability.
