Kristen Weiman

Kristen Weiman serves as a Contracting Officer for the W6QK Acc-apg under the Department of the Army (W91CRB), where she plays a pivotal role in acquiring advanced sensing, communications, and battlefield analytics systems critical to modern intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) operations. She manages the full lifecycle of complex procurements—from market research and solicitation to award and contract administration—focusing on high-technology platforms including aeronautical instrumentation, RF systems, and real-time data analytics tools. Her work directly supports the Army’s strategic modernization goals by ensuring timely delivery of mission-critical capabilities to tactical units. Weiman cultivates partnerships with a diverse range of industry stakeholders, including prime contractors specializing in defense electronics, aerospace systems, and R&D services. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages with firms possessing deep expertise in signal processing, embedded systems, and secure communications architectures. Her approach emphasizes technical rigor, competitive bidding, and performance-based contracting to ensure mission readiness and innovation. Weiman’s contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions designated as “No Set-Aside.” This indicates a focus on technical merit and capability over socioeconomic preferences, aligning with the high-specialization demands of her mission area. While she does not prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, she remains compliant with all federal small business regulations and may include small business subcontracting requirements where technically appropriate. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334511 (aeronautical and navigation systems), 334413 (semiconductor manufacturing), 334220 (wireless communications equipment), and 541712 (physical and engineering R&D). She routinely procures cutting-edge hardware and software solutions for battlefield data fusion, RF signal interception, and tactical network resilience, demonstrating deep familiarity with defense electronics, embedded firmware, and secure communications protocols.
