Sharon F. Coleman

Sharon F. Coleman serves as a Contract Specialist at DLA Land Warren, where she plays a pivotal role in securing mission-critical mechanical, electrical, and electro-mechanical components for U.S. ground forces. Her responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle of procurement for armored vehicle subsystems, powertrain assemblies, and tactical transport system components, ensuring operational readiness across the Department of Defense’s land warfare enterprise. She manages complex solicitations under FAR and DFARS guidelines, coordinating with technical stakeholders to define performance requirements and evaluate vendor proposals for high-reliability systems used in combat environments. Coleman maintains consistent contracting relationships with leading defense industrial base partners, including ONTIC Engineering & Manufacturing, Oshkosh Defense, Renk America, SCI Technology, and Varec NV. These partnerships reflect a focus on tier-one suppliers with proven capabilities in precision manufacturing, ruggedized electronics, and armored vehicle integration. Her procurement approach emphasizes technical compliance, supply chain resilience, and long-term sustainment support, fostering collaborative vendor relationships grounded in performance accountability and quality assurance. Her contracting patterns demonstrate a strong emphasis on small business participation, with over 41% of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. Women-Owned Small Businesses and SBA-certified Economically Disadvantaged WOSBs receive targeted consideration, reflecting a deliberate effort to broaden vendor diversity within the defense supply chain. While the majority of acquisitions remain open to all competitors, her portfolio consistently integrates socioeconomic programs to enhance competition and innovation. Coleman’s technical expertise centers on NAICS 336350 (powertrain and transmission components), 332994 (ordnance and small arms accessories), and 334419 (electronic components), aligning with DLA Land Warren’s core mission to sustain armored and tactical vehicle fleets. She specializes in procuring mission-critical subsystems requiring stringent military specifications, including ruggedized circuitry, high-torque drivetrains, and electro-mechanical interfaces designed for extreme operational environments.
