Alicia M. Osborn

Alicia M. Osborn serves as a key procurement lead within U.S. Transportation Command (USTransCom), supporting the agency’s global mobility mission through the acquisition of critical logistics and communications infrastructure. She manages complex contracts aligned with expeditionary operations, port and terminal sustainment, and rapid deployment systems, ensuring seamless air, sea, land, and rail mobility for DoD forces worldwide. Her acquisitions focus on mission-critical services that enable theater access and operational readiness, often involving time-sensitive, high-urgency requirements under contingency contracting authorities. Osborn’s work directly supports USTransCom’s strategic imperative to maintain global logistics dominance through agile, responsive procurement practices. She maintains consistent relationships with a select group of specialized contractors including UNCOMN LLC, PHOENIX AIR GROUP, INC., RAMPART AVIATION, LLC, FANCIULLI EGISTO S.R.L., and MOUNTAIN AVIATION, LLC, all of which provide niche aviation, expeditionary logistics, and mission support services. These partnerships reflect a preference for highly specialized vendors with proven capabilities in austere environments, global air operations, and rapid-response mobility solutions. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, technical reliability, and operational interoperability, often leveraging indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) and requirements-type contracts to ensure scalable support. Osborn’s procurement portfolio exhibits no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on accessing the broadest possible pool of qualified, mission-ready vendors rather than socioeconomic set-asides. While small business participation is not formally prioritized, her contracting decisions remain compliant with all statutory requirements and are driven by technical merit and operational necessity. Her primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 517919 (Other Telecommunications) and 519130 (Other Information Services), indicating a strong specialization in expeditionary communications networks, real-time logistics tracking systems, and mission-critical data services. She routinely procures integrated command, control, and communications (C3) platforms, satellite-enabled logistics coordination tools, and secure mobility management systems essential to global force projection.
