Lama Altattan

Lama Altattan serves as a key procurement professional within the U.S. Army Contracting Command – Detroit Arsenal (ACC-DTA), supporting the acquisition of advanced ground combat systems and enabling technologies critical to modernizing Army tactical forces. Responsible for managing complex contracting actions under NAICS 336992, Altattan specializes in the procurement of armored vehicles, tank components, and integrated ordnance systems that enhance soldier lethality, survivability, and battlefield mobility. Their work directly supports the Army’s strategic priorities in rapid prototyping and fielding next-generation armored platforms, ensuring timely delivery of mission-critical equipment to operational units across the force. Altattan maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of prime contractors, including BAE SYSTEMS LAND & ARMAMENTS L.P., BAY SHIP & YACHT CO, MURTECH, INC., JAPAN MARINE UNITED CORPORATION, and PROFESSIONAL CONTRACT SERVICES, INC. These partnerships reflect a focus on established defense industrial base vendors with proven expertise in armored vehicle manufacturing, system integration, and specialized logistics support. The contracting approach emphasizes technical rigor, performance-based acquisition, and lifecycle sustainment, often involving complex engineering deliverables and defense-specific compliance requirements. Altattan’s procurement portfolio exhibits a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of awards issued under no set-aside classifications. This reflects a mission-driven emphasis on leveraging the broadest possible industrial base to meet urgent operational needs, rather than prioritizing socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. While small business participation is not formally structured through set-asides, the agency may still incorporate small business subcontracting through prime contractor obligations. The primary technical domain centers on Military Armored Vehicle, Tank, and Tank Component Manufacturing (NAICS 336992), encompassing the acquisition of tracked and wheeled armored platforms, armor kits, fire control systems, and associated munitions integration. Altattan’s expertise lies in navigating the unique technical, logistical, and regulatory challenges of procuring high-performance defense systems under stringent military specifications and operational timelines.
