Shawndell A. Jackson

Shawndell A. Jackson serves as a key procurement professional within the W6QM Micc-FDO Ft. Eustis, a critical element of the U.S. Army’s Department of the Army responsible for enabling mission command, training readiness, and sustainment operations. Responsible for managing complex acquisition initiatives, Jackson specializes in procuring specialized engineering equipment and technical systems that enhance battlefield decision-making, cyber-enabled logistics, and high-fidelity training environments. Their work directly supports the Army’s modernization priorities by ensuring timely delivery of mission-critical hardware and integrated systems that align with operational doctrine and force readiness requirements. Jackson maintains a focused contracting relationship with BOOZ ALLEN HAMILTON INC, the primary contractor supporting technical and professional services under this office. The working relationship reflects a pattern of long-term, performance-based engagements centered on systems integration, analytical support, and advanced training platform development. While the portfolio is currently dominated by a single prime contractor, the procurement strategy emphasizes rigorous performance oversight and compliance with federal acquisition regulations to ensure mission alignment and accountability. A defining feature of Jackson’s procurement approach is the exclusive use of Total Small Business Set-Aside authorities under FAR 19.5, demonstrating an unwavering commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals. All acquisitions are structured to maximize participation by small businesses, ensuring equitable access to Army modernization contracts and fostering innovation within the defense industrial base. The procurement portfolio is narrowly concentrated under NAICS 333618 (Other Engine Equipment Manufacturing), reflecting a specialized focus on the acquisition of non-standard engine systems, auxiliary power units, and mission-specific mechanical equipment used in training simulators, tactical vehicles, and field-deployable power solutions. This technical domain requires deep familiarity with military specifications, engineering standards, and lifecycle sustainment requirements, positioning Jackson as a subject matter expert in niche defense manufacturing acquisitions.
