Alyssa R. Wickman

Alyssa R. Wickman serves as a key procurement professional within the FA8601 Aflcmc Pzio unit of the Department of the Air Force, supporting the acquisition of mission-critical aerospace and defense systems. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts for high-precision analytical instrumentation, electromedical and electrotherapeutic devices, and industrial measurement systems essential to flight testing, fuel analysis, and environmental monitoring. Her work directly enables airpower readiness by ensuring the timely delivery of laboratory-grade equipment and specialized maintenance services that sustain operational capabilities across test ranges and research facilities. Wickman maintains a strong working relationship with C MARTIN CO INC, a primary contractor delivering facilities support and technical services aligned with her agency’s operational needs. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven expertise in defense-grade instrumentation and compliance with military specifications, while also fostering collaborative partnerships with small businesses that meet stringent technical and certification requirements. She consistently engages contractors through competitive solicitations that emphasize performance-based outcomes and lifecycle support. Her procurement strategy prioritizes small business participation, with approximately half of her awards structured as 8(a) competed contracts and an additional 40% designated under total small business set-asides per FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate commitment to socioeconomic diversity, ensuring opportunities for disadvantaged and service-disabled veteran-owned firms while maintaining rigorous technical standards. She rarely uses non-set-aside mechanisms, underscoring her dedication to expanding the defense industrial base. Wickman’s primary NAICS focus lies in facilities support services (561210), with significant activity in janitorial (561720), landscaping (561730), and solid waste collection (562111) services that sustain base infrastructure. She also procures specialized sanitation and manufacturing services (325612) critical to maintaining clean-room and hazardous material handling environments. Her expertise spans both technical instrumentation and facility sustainment, bridging operational readiness with environmental and logistical compliance in high-stakes aerospace environments.
