ALIZA WYCHE

Aliza Wyche serves as a primary procurement lead within the ASC Supplier Operations OEM Division of the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation, where she manages critical acquisitions of high-reliability aviation components essential to U.S. military aircraft readiness. Her role centers on sustaining and modernizing propulsion, flight control, and avionics systems through the procurement of precision-engineered measuring, controlling, and environmental monitoring devices. She oversees the full acquisition lifecycle—from market research and requirement definition to contract award and performance management—ensuring alignment with Department of Defense standards for technical integrity, supply chain resilience, and mission-critical performance. Wyche engages with a diverse base of industrial suppliers specializing in aerospace-grade instrumentation and control systems, including manufacturers of sensors, transducers, and automated environmental control units. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently works with Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers possessing AS9100 certification and deep expertise in military-specification components. Her contracting approach emphasizes technical compliance, long-term supply chain stability, and vendor collaboration to mitigate obsolescence risks in legacy platforms. Her procurement activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of acquisitions conducted under full and open competition, reflecting a strategic emphasis on technical capability over socioeconomic preferences. This approach ensures access to the most qualified industrial base for mission-critical aviation systems, prioritizing performance and reliability above socioeconomic criteria. Wyche’s primary focus lies within NAICS 334519 (Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing) and 334513 (Instruments for Industrial Process Variables), with secondary emphasis on 334512 (Automatic Environmental Control Manufacturing). She procures precision sensors, flight data acquisition units, thermal regulators, and avionics interface modules—components requiring stringent environmental testing and military certification. Her domain expertise spans avionics integration, embedded control systems, and aerospace-grade manufacturing standards.
