Kyle Jackson

Kyle S. Jackson serves as a Contract Specialist within the W00Y Contracting Office, part of the Department of the Army’s broader defense acquisition enterprise. In this role, he is responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions for mission-critical services supporting command, control, intelligence, and communications capabilities for deployed forces. His portfolio primarily encompasses professional and technical services, including systems integration, mission-critical software development, and language and cultural support solutions essential to global defense operations. Jackson ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning contract actions with strategic DoD priorities for operational readiness and technological resilience. While specific contractor relationships are not currently available for public disclosure, Jackson maintains a dynamic contracting environment characterized by engagement with diverse vendors across multiple industrial sectors. He fosters partnerships with both large-capability firms and small businesses, emphasizing performance-based contracting, clear statement of work development, and rigorous source selection processes to ensure mission success and accountability. Jackson’s procurement strategy reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 85.7% of his actions awarded without set-asides, indicating a focus on broad market access and technical capability over socioeconomic preferences. However, he consistently allocates 14.3% of awards to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a measured but deliberate commitment to small business participation without compromising mission requirements. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 561720 (Janitorial Services), 334310 (Audio and Video Equipment Manufacturing), 334513 (Industrial Process Control Instruments), and 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing). These reflect a unique blend of operational support, specialized instrumentation, and logistical infrastructure needs—underscoring his expertise in procuring both conventional and niche technical products critical to sustaining deployed military operations.
