Kristin Dacey

Kristin Dacey serves as a secondary procurement professional within the W6QK Acc-apg unit of the Department of the Army, operating under the W91CRB organization code. She supports the acquisition lifecycle for advanced aeronautical instrumentation, radio frequency platforms, and battlefield data analytics systems critical to modern intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance missions. While not the primary contracting officer, she plays a vital role in requisition coordination, requirement validation, and contract administration for complex technical procurements. Her work ensures alignment between operational needs and acquisition execution, particularly in the domain of satellite-enabled communications and real-time tactical data transmission. Kristin collaborates closely with prime contractors and systems integrators specializing in military-grade RF and satellite telecommunications infrastructure. Though specific vendor names are not publicly tracked in this context, her procurement patterns indicate consistent engagement with firms possessing DoD cybersecurity certifications, ITAR compliance, and experience in fielding ruggedized, high-bandwidth communication payloads. Her working relationships are characterized by technical collaboration, iterative requirement refinement, and adherence to FAR and DFARS compliance frameworks. Kristin’s procurement activities reflect a strong preference for unrestricted competition, with 100% of acquisitions classified as “No Set-Aside.” This indicates a focus on technical capability and mission readiness over socioeconomic preferences, though small business participation may still occur organically through subcontracting or teaming arrangements. Her approach prioritizes performance, interoperability, and rapid fielding over socioeconomic set-asides. Her primary procurement focus is exclusively within NAICS 517410 (Satellite Telecommunications), encompassing the acquisition of secure satellite terminals, waveform-agnostic transceivers, ground station systems, and embedded analytics platforms. She specializes in procuring systems that enable beyond-line-of-sight command and control, tactical data links, and resilient communications architectures for deployed forces.
