2Lt Anna Ketcham

2Lt Anna Ketcham serves as a procurement specialist within the FA4855 27th Security Forces Squadron Logistics, a unit under the Department of the Air Force tasked with sustaining air base operational readiness through facility infrastructure and mission-critical support services. She manages the acquisition of specialized construction components, communications systems, and facility maintenance solutions essential to air base resilience. Her portfolio centers on low-volume, high-precision procurements aligned with the agency’s modernization priorities, including HVAC, wastewater treatment upgrades, and secure facility systems. Ketcham ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while advancing mission-aligned technical requirements across diverse contract vehicles. Her primary contractor relationship is with ALTUS TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS LLC, a vendor frequently engaged for technical support, specialized equipment integration, and facility system installations. Ketcham fosters long-term, performance-based partnerships with this contractor, emphasizing quality control, delivery timelines, and compliance with military-grade specifications. She routinely collaborates with vendors capable of meeting stringent DoD security and environmental standards, favoring those with proven track records in defense-adjacent infrastructure support. Ketcham maintains a strict 100% Small Business Set-Aside preference under FAR 19.5, consistently directing acquisitions to small businesses regardless of socioeconomic designation. Her contracting patterns reflect a robust commitment to broad-based small business participation, prioritizing capability over size and ensuring equitable access to opportunities for firms with niche technical expertise in facility systems and specialty manufacturing. Her primary NAICS focus includes 314110 (Carpet and Rug Mills), reflecting procurement of durable, military-spec flooring for high-traffic operational areas; 339920 (Sporting and Athletic Goods Manufacturing), indicating acquisition of training equipment and facility furnishings; 333249 (Other Industrial Machinery); and 325998 (Miscellaneous Chemical Products), supporting specialized cleaning, decontamination, and facility maintenance chemicals.
