Keri Skrobot

Keri Skrobot serves as a Contract Specialist at the W4GG Hq US Army Tacom, where she plays a critical role in managing the acquisition lifecycle for ground combat and support vehicle systems under the Department of the Army. Her responsibilities include developing, negotiating, and administering complex contracts for technical and logistical support services essential to vehicle modernization, survivability, and sustainment. She specializes in procurements involving advanced manufacturing, electronic components, and engineered metal systems that directly support armored and tactical wheeled platform readiness. Skrobot ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning acquisitions with TACOM’s mission of maintaining technological superiority across the Army’s land warfare fleet. She maintains established working relationships with key industrial partners including Schutt Industries, VAREC NV, ONTIC ENGINEERING & MANUFACTURING, INC, A&M AEROSTRUCTURES, INC., and BOWHEAD AVIONICS MANUFACTURING, LLC. These vendors provide specialized capabilities in metal fabrication, avionics integration, and precision component manufacturing. Skrobot’s procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor collaboration, technical validation, and performance-based contracting to ensure mission-critical deliverables meet stringent military standards. While the majority of her acquisitions are conducted under open competition with no set-aside (86.2%), she consistently facilitates opportunities for small businesses, with 13.8% of awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. Her contracting patterns reflect a balanced commitment to industrial capacity and socioeconomic goals, prioritizing qualified small businesses without compromising technical or schedule requirements. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 332311 (prefabricated metal building and component manufacturing), 332112 (nonferrous forging), and 334419 (other electronic component manufacturing), reflecting deep expertise in armored vehicle structural systems, high-strength metal components, and mission-critical avionics and control hardware. She routinely supports the integration of ruggedized electronics and engineered metal subsystems essential to modernized tactical platforms.
