Tyler Restrick

Tyler Restrick serves as a key procurement professional within the W6QK Acc-apg unit of the Department of the Army, operating under code W91CRB, where he supports the development and fielding of next-generation intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance systems. He manages acquisitions for critical military capabilities in aeronautical instrumentation, radio frequency platforms, and battlefield data analytics, ensuring alignment with the Army’s modernization priorities for tactical communications and sensor integration. His role involves end-to-end contract execution for technical services, with a focus on engineering, management consulting, and professional training solutions that enhance operational readiness and systems interoperability. Restrick maintains a broad network of vendor partnerships, engaging both large defense contractors and specialized small businesses to deliver mission-critical technical services. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently collaborates with firms offering expertise in systems engineering, data analytics, and military training development. His procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and outcome-driven deliverables, fostering long-term relationships with vendors capable of rapid adaptation to evolving battlefield requirements. His contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 80% of acquisitions conducted without set-aside restrictions. However, he actively supports small business participation, allocating 20% of opportunities to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a balanced commitment to both competition and socioeconomic goals. He does not favor specific categories like 8(a) or HUBZone but ensures small businesses have meaningful access to high-value technical contracts. Restrick’s procurement focus is evenly distributed across three core NAICS categories: 541611 (administrative and management consulting), 541330 (engineering services), and 611430 (professional and management development training). He regularly procures services related to systems integration, technical workforce development, and operational analytics, underscoring his expertise in sustaining the Army’s technological edge through skilled human capital and advanced engineering support.
