Steven Netter

Steven Netter serves as a key procurement professional within the W4GG Hq US Army Tacom, supporting the lifecycle management and sustainment of ground combat and tactical wheeled vehicle systems for the Department of Defense. He oversees acquisition activities centered on maintenance, repair, and specialized manufacturing of armored vehicle components and associated ordnance systems, ensuring operational readiness through timely and technically sound contracting. His work directly enables the modernization and fielding of mission-critical platforms by coordinating engineering, logistics, and industrial base support across the Army’s ground vehicle enterprise. Netter maintains consistent partnerships with a core group of specialized contractors including Schutt Industries, ONTIC Engineering & Manufacturing, A&M Aerostructures, and Bowhead Avionics Manufacturing, each providing high-integrity mechanical, structural, and avionics components tailored to military vehicle platforms. These relationships are characterized by long-term technical collaboration, with vendors frequently engaged for complex repair, retrofit, and niche manufacturing tasks requiring defense-specific certifications and quality controls. His contracting approach prioritizes reliability, compliance, and industrial capacity over broad competition. Netter’s procurement portfolio is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on technical capability and industrial readiness over socioeconomic classifications, indicating a focus on mission-critical performance over socioeconomic preferences. While small business participation is not formally incentivized through set-asides, the nature of the work often attracts qualified small and medium-sized enterprises with niche expertise. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 811310 (commercial and industrial machinery repair and maintenance), followed by 333618 (other engine equipment manufacturing) and 336390 (other motor vehicle parts manufacturing). He routinely acquires specialized repair services, engine components, drivetrain parts, and vehicle-specific avionics systems, demonstrating deep technical familiarity with armored vehicle sustainment, mechanical systems integration, and military-grade manufacturing standards.
