Amanda M. Huckle

Amanda M. Huckle serves as Lead Acquisition Program Manager for the Department of the Air Force under FA5641, where she directs the end-to-end acquisition lifecycle for mission-critical logistics, medical, and communications support systems. Her role centers on ensuring operational readiness through the timely procurement of specialized aeronautical instrumentation, aviation safety infrastructure, and resilient command and control networks. She oversees complex contract actions spanning planning, solicitation, evaluation, and award, aligning each acquisition with Air Force modernization priorities and regulatory compliance frameworks. Huckle’s portfolio emphasizes technical solutions that sustain global air operations, requiring deep coordination with engineering, logistics, and safety stakeholders to meet stringent performance and security standards. Huckle collaborates with a diverse range of contractors specializing in environmental remediation, aeronautical design, and mission-critical systems integration. While no single vendor dominates her award portfolio, she consistently engages firms with proven expertise in hazardous material management, flight systems instrumentation, and secure communications architecture. Her contracting approach prioritizes performance-based outcomes, technical rigor, and contract compliance, fostering long-term partnerships with vendors capable of delivering high-integrity solutions under dynamic operational conditions. Huckle’s acquisition strategy reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her procurements classified as “No Set-Aside.” This indicates a focus on technical capability and mission suitability over socioeconomic classifications, though she remains compliant with all federal small business regulations. Her approach prioritizes merit-based selection, ensuring that the most qualified offerors—regardless of size or certification—are evaluated on technical merit, past performance, and risk mitigation capacity. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 562910 (Remediation Services), where she manages environmental cleanup and hazardous material handling contracts essential to maintaining safe airfield and facility operations. Complementing this, she frequently procures services under NAICS 541490 (Other Specialized Design Services), including custom aeronautical system design, safety protocol development, and instrumentation integration. Her domain expertise spans environmental compliance, aviation safety engineering, and mission-critical infrastructure modernization, making her a key steward of Air Force operational resilience.
