Leah Mott

Leah Mott serves as a key procurement lead within the W6QM MICC-FDO at Fort Eustis, supporting the U.S. Army’s mission command and training readiness through the acquisition of specialized professional and technical services. She manages a portfolio of contracts focused on mission-critical capabilities including cyber-enabled training systems, logistics sustainment solutions, and advanced simulation environments. Her work directly enables the Army’s strategic priorities in enhancing battlefield decision-making and soldier readiness through high-fidelity, data-driven training platforms. Mott typically handles complex service-based acquisitions under full and open competition, ensuring alignment with Army doctrine and operational requirements. Her primary contractor relationship is with Booz Allen Hamilton Inc., a trusted partner delivering enterprise-level consulting and systems integration services for defense modernization initiatives. Mott’s contracting patterns reflect a preference for established defense contractors with proven expertise in mission command systems, cyber operations, and technical advisory services. While Booz Allen Hamilton dominates her vendor landscape, she maintains a streamlined procurement process that prioritizes technical excellence and mission alignment over vendor diversity, indicating a focus on mission-critical performance over broad vendor participation. Mott’s acquisition strategy is exclusively non-set-aside, with 100% of her contracts awarded under full and open competition. This reflects a deliberate emphasis on selecting the most technically capable providers regardless of socioeconomic status, consistent with the high-stakes nature of Army training and command systems. There is no evidence of targeted small business set-asides, HUBZone preferences, or SDVOSB utilization in her portfolio, signaling a procurement approach centered on capability and urgency over socioeconomic objectives. Her procurement focus is evenly split between NAICS 511210 (Software Publishers) and 541690 (Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services), underscoring her specialization in software-enabled training platforms and expert advisory services for military systems integration. She routinely procures custom-developed simulation software, mission command architecture support, cyber resilience analytics, and technical staffing solutions tailored to Army training doctrine and modernization imperatives.
