William Tenz

William Tenz serves as a key procurement professional within the W6QK Acc-pica organization under the Department of the Army, overseeing the acquisition of mission-critical defense manufacturing, facility services, and operational support systems essential to military readiness. He manages complex contracting actions spanning industrial equipment, precision instrumentation, and advanced research and development services, ensuring alignment with the Army’s strategic priorities in ammunition modernization, infrastructure resilience, and force projection logistics. His work directly supports the sustainment of combat systems and the reliability of munitions supply chains through rigorous acquisition planning and contract execution. Tenz maintains established working relationships with leading defense contractors including NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORPORATION, GENERAL DYNAMICS OTS (WILKES BARRE), LLC, and PIONEERING DECISIVE SOLUTIONS INC, among others. These partnerships reflect a preference for established industry primes with proven capabilities in defense-grade manufacturing, systems integration, and technical services. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, technical compliance, and supply chain integrity, often leveraging indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) and other flexible contract vehicles to meet dynamic operational demands. Tenz’s procurement portfolio shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on technical capability and mission urgency over socioeconomic preferences, aligning with the agency’s need for rapid, scalable solutions from qualified industry partners with proven defense experience. His primary acquisition focus lies in NAICS 423830 (industrial machinery and equipment wholesale), 541519 (other computer-related services), and 541715 (R&D in physical and engineering sciences), indicating deep expertise in procuring advanced manufacturing systems, test and measurement instrumentation, and applied engineering services. He routinely sources precision equipment repair, electronic signal testing systems, and mission-critical software development to sustain Army infrastructure and modernize operational capabilities.
