Marie A. McFadden

Marie McFadden serves as a key procurement lead within the W6QM Micc Ft Lee, supporting the Department of the Army’s mission to sustain and modernize critical military infrastructure. She manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions focused on facilities support, security systems, and specialized manufacturing services essential to installation readiness. Her work ensures the operational resilience of Army facilities through the timely procurement of mission-enabling goods and services, including energy systems, security infrastructure, and industrial-grade fabrication. McFadden operates within a framework that balances strategic modernization with compliance to federal acquisition regulations, prioritizing efficiency, reliability, and mission alignment in every contracting action. She maintains established relationships with a core group of contractors, including NISGA'A MOSTT, LLC, GLOBAL DIMENSIONS, LLC, VIRGINIA ENERGY AND LIGHTING, LLC, and UNDERPRESSURE, INC., all of which provide specialized services in facilities maintenance, energy efficiency, and heavy-gauge metal fabrication. These partnerships reflect a preference for regional vendors with proven capabilities in military-grade infrastructure support. McFadden’s contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and long-term vendor reliability, fostering collaborative relationships grounded in technical expertise and compliance with DoD standards. McFadden demonstrates a balanced commitment to socioeconomic programs, with nearly half of her acquisitions set aside for small businesses—equally divided between total small business set-asides and no set-aside competitions.
