Tanyeka D Boley

Tanyeka D. Boley serves as a Contract Specialist within the W6QK Acc-rsa under the Department of the Army, where she plays a pivotal role in executing complex acquisitions to sustain and modernize the Army’s aerial and missile defense systems. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of contracts for mission-critical aerospace platforms, including components for the UH-60 Black Hawk and AH-64 Apache helicopters, as well as guided missile systems and advanced avionics. Boley ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurement activities with the agency’s strategic priorities in propulsion, sensor integration, and missile defense modernization. While specific contractor names are not publicly disclosed, Boley routinely engages with prime contractors and specialized subsystem vendors in the aerospace and defense manufacturing sector, fostering collaborative relationships with firms capable of delivering high-integrity, defense-grade components. Her contracting approach emphasizes technical rigor, risk mitigation, and performance-based acquisition strategies, ensuring that deliverables meet stringent military specifications for reliability and interoperability. Bolstered by a strong preference for open competition, approximately 85.7% of her acquisitions are conducted without set-asides, reflecting the technical complexity and scale of the requirements. However, she maintains a consistent 14.3% allocation to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a measured but intentional commitment to small business participation across the defense industrial base. Her procurement focus is heavily concentrated in NAICS 336414 (Guided Missile and Space Vehicle Manufacturing) and 336419 (Other Guided Missile and Space Vehicle Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing), underscoring her deep expertise in missile system integration, guidance electronics, and propulsion subsystems. Boley’s work directly supports the Army’s modernization imperative in air and missile defense, requiring precise technical understanding of defense aerospace supply chains and compliance with DoD acquisition standards.
