Matthew P. Westfall

Matthew Westfall serves as a key procurement professional within the W4MM USA Joint Munitions Command, supporting the Department of Defense’s mission to ensure operational readiness through the lifecycle management of conventional ammunition and explosives. He oversees the acquisition of specialized manufacturing and maintenance services critical to sustaining combat-effective munitions systems for land, air, and naval forces. His portfolio includes technical contracts for cutting tool manufacturing, munitions component repair, and industrial maintenance services, with a strong emphasis on supply chain resilience and modernization initiatives. Westfall’s work directly enables the command’s ability to produce, store, distribute, and demilitarize munitions in compliance with stringent safety and regulatory standards. While specific contractor names are not publicly disclosed, Westfall maintains a robust network of industrial vendors and specialized manufacturers that support the unique technical demands of munitions production and maintenance. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for partners capable of meeting stringent military specifications, including those with expertise in precision machining, hazardous material handling, and defense-grade fabrication. He fosters long-term vendor relationships grounded in quality assurance, compliance with MIL-SPEC standards, and responsiveness to urgent operational requirements. Westfall demonstrates a pronounced commitment to small business participation, with over 57% of his acquisitions set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5. His contracting strategy prioritizes inclusive economic opportunity, consistently awarding contracts to small disadvantaged, HUBZone, and service-disabled veteran-owned firms. This reflects a deliberate alignment with DoD socioeconomic goals and a strategic effort to diversify the industrial base supporting national defense. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 333515 (cutting tool and machine tool accessory manufacturing), alongside niche areas such as textile bag and canvas production for munitions packaging and miscellaneous manufacturing for specialized defense components. He possesses deep technical expertise in industrial processes critical to ammunition sustainment, including precision tooling, hazardous material containment systems, and maintenance of legacy munitions infrastructure.
