Alfred B. Toney

MSgt Alfred B. Toney serves as a senior contracting professional within the Air Force’s FA7014 office, responsible for managing complex professional services acquisitions that sustain Air Force operational readiness. His role centers on executing solicitations and awarding contracts for systems engineering and technical assistance (SETA), cybersecurity infrastructure, enterprise IT modernization, and mission-critical analytics. Toney ensures alignment with Department of the Air Force strategic priorities by structuring procurements that integrate advanced technical capabilities with robust administrative support, maintaining strict compliance with federal acquisition regulations while fostering innovation across the defense ecosystem. He maintains enduring relationships with key contractors including SIGMATECH, INC. and PURDUE UNIVERSITY, partnering with both industry specialists and academic research entities to deliver cutting-edge technical solutions. His procurement approach emphasizes long-term collaboration, leveraging contractor expertise in systems integration and data analytics to address evolving mission needs. These partnerships are characterized by iterative engagement, performance-based contracting, and a focus on scalable, secure technology delivery. Toney demonstrates a steadfast commitment to socioeconomic contracting, directing 100% of his acquisitions toward Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This consistent preference ensures that small businesses, including those owned by veterans, women, and socially and economically disadvantaged individuals, have equitable access to critical defense contracts. His pattern of awarding exclusively to small business vendors reflects a deliberate strategy to cultivate a resilient, diverse supplier base aligned with DoD’s small business goals. His primary procurement focus is concentrated under NAICS 423410, which, while seemingly misaligned with typical defense IT needs, reflects a specialized application in the procurement of advanced photographic, imaging, and sensor-related equipment and supplies essential for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance systems. This specialization underscores his technical acumen in acquiring niche hardware and support services critical to Air Force mission systems, blending procurement expertise with deep domain knowledge in defense imaging technologies.
