Wanda Johnson

Wanda Johnson serves as a key procurement lead within the W6QK Lad Contr Office under the Department of the Army, responsible for managing complex acquisitions that sustain and modernize critical military infrastructure and electromechanical systems. Her work directly supports operational readiness by securing specialized industrial maintenance, precision manufacturing, and technical support services for high-value Army platforms. She routinely handles contracts for power distribution components, industrial measurement instruments, and custom metal fittings, ensuring compliance with military specifications and lifecycle sustainment requirements. Her acquisitions are mission-critical, focused on maintaining the integrity of electrical and control systems essential to Army equipment operations. Johnson maintains consistent partnerships with a select group of specialized vendors, including FIBER BUSINESS SOLUTIONS GROUP INC, AEROSPACE & COMMERCIAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLC, CRW CORP, FERRELLGAS, L.P., and EDGE TECHNOLOGY DISTRIBUTORS, INC. These relationships reflect a preference for contractors with proven expertise in niche industrial sectors, particularly those capable of delivering custom-engineered components and certified technical support. Her contracting approach emphasizes reliability, technical compliance, and long-term service capability, often favoring vendors with established track records in military-grade manufacturing and field support. A strong advocate for small business participation, Johnson consistently prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides, directing approximately 71.4% of her acquisitions to small businesses under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to cultivate a resilient supplier base capable of meeting the Army’s specialized technical demands while promoting economic opportunity within the defense industrial base. Her contracting patterns demonstrate a structured commitment to socioeconomic goals without compromising mission-critical performance standards. Her procurement focus centers on NAICS 335311 (power and specialty transformer manufacturing), with significant activity in 334515, 334513, 334519 (measuring and controlling device manufacturing), and 332919 (metal valve and pipe fitting manufacturing). These categories underscore her technical expertise in procuring precision instrumentation, electrical control systems, and ruggedized industrial components critical to Army platform sustainment and modernization efforts.
