Scott Ballweg

Scott L. Ballweg serves as a procurement lead within the W7NN USPFO Activity Nhang 157, supporting the Department of the Army’s mission to sustain and modernize military installation infrastructure. He manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions focused on facility operations, physical security systems, and garrison support services, ensuring mission-ready conditions for training and daily operations. His responsibilities include planning, soliciting, awarding, and administering contracts aligned with Defense Infrastructure priorities, with an emphasis on procurement efficiency and regulatory compliance under FAR and DFARS frameworks. Ballweg maintains consistent working relationships with Howard Systems Voice Data Wiri, a key contractor providing critical communications and data infrastructure services. His procurement patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven capability in military-grade systems, while actively fostering partnerships with small businesses that deliver specialized technical support. He collaborates closely with contractors to ensure alignment with Army standards for interoperability, resilience, and rapid deployment in operational environments. A strong advocate for small business participation, Ballweg consistently applies Total Small Business Set-Aside provisions under FAR 19.5, with approximately 69% of his acquisitions reserved for small businesses. This reflects a deliberate strategy to enhance economic opportunity and diversify the supplier base, particularly among firms certified under 8(a), HUBZone, and SDVOSB programs. His contracting patterns demonstrate a structured commitment to socioeconomic goals without compromising mission requirements. His primary NAICS focus includes 721110 (lodging for transient military personnel), 713940 (recreational facilities supporting troop readiness), and 339113 (specialized surgical and medical supplies for on-post health clinics). He also procures communications equipment (334290) and advertising services (541810) to support operational awareness and garrison morale. This blend of facility, medical, and communication procurements underscores his technical expertise in integrated garrison support systems.
