Mr. Jan A. Forman

Mr. Jan A. Forman serves as a key procurement lead within the W6QK Acc-orlando office of the Department of the Army, where he manages technical acquisitions critical to modernizing military training systems and defense technology integration. His responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle of engineering services contracts, with a focus on live-fire simulation infrastructure, mission command systems, and aviation/artillery training platforms. Forman ensures alignment between acquisition strategy and the agency’s mission to enhance operational readiness through advanced engineering and research services, consistently prioritizing technical excellence and innovation in contract execution. He maintains established relationships with core contractors including TORCH RESEARCH, LLC, AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY INTERNATIONAL, and FIDELITY TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION, all of which provide specialized engineering, systems integration, and technical support services. These partnerships reflect a pattern of sustained collaboration with firms possessing deep expertise in defense simulation, modeling and simulation (M&S), and command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems. Forman’s procurement approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and technical validation, fostering long-term vendor engagement grounded in proven capability. Forman’s contracting activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on technical merit and capability over socioeconomic criteria, aligning with the agency’s urgent need for specialized, mission-critical solutions. While small business participation is not formally incentivized in his portfolio, all vendors are evaluated on technical proficiency and past performance. His procurement focus is exclusively centered on NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services), encompassing systems engineering, test and evaluation, simulation development, and technical analysis for defense training environments. He procures high-fidelity training systems, digital twin architectures, and integrated battlefield simulators, demonstrating deep domain expertise in military education technology and advanced engineering support for combat readiness.
