Selidia Jackson

Selidia Jackson serves as a key procurement professional within the W6QK Acc-rsa office of the Department of the Army, supporting the modernization and sustainment of critical aerial and missile defense systems. She manages complex acquisitions for aerospace components, avionics upgrades, and mission-critical support services essential to platforms such as the UH-60 Black Hawk and AH-64 Apache. Her work directly enables the Army’s strategic priorities in air mobility, precision strike, and integrated air and missile defense, ensuring operational readiness through timely and compliant contract execution. Jackson specializes in high-technical procurement actions requiring deep coordination with engineering, logistics, and systems integration teams. Her contractor relationships are primarily with mid-to-large-tier aerospace and defense manufacturers specializing in aircraft subsystems, propulsion components, and avionics integration. She routinely engages with vendors possessing ITAR compliance, AS9100 certification, and defense-specific quality management systems. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established defense primes with proven track records in delivering mission-essential hardware under strict military specifications, alongside qualified small business partners. Jackson demonstrates a balanced commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with approximately two-thirds of her acquisitions conducted as open competitions and the remaining third allocated to small business set-asides—equally divided between HUBZone and Total Small Business (FAR 19.5) categories. Her approach supports broad-based industry participation while maintaining technical rigor, consistently incorporating qualified small businesses in niche manufacturing and logistics support roles. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336413 for other aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment, followed by 488190 for air transportation support services and 332992 for small arms ammunition manufacturing. She has deep expertise in sourcing precision-engineered components, flight control systems, and munitions logistics solutions, with a technical understanding of military aviation standards including MIL-STD-810 and DO-160. Her work ensures the reliability and interoperability of Army aviation systems across diverse operational environments.
