Amber Climaco

Amber Climaco serves as a secondary procurement specialist within the 763d Enterprise Sourcing Squadron of the Department of the Air Force, supporting the acquisition of mission-critical technology, logistics, and infrastructure services essential to airpower readiness. While not the primary contracting officer, Climaco plays a vital role in facilitating the planning, solicitation, and administrative execution of contracts that sustain pilot training systems, communications resilience, and enterprise-wide operational capabilities. Her work ensures alignment with strategic modernization goals, particularly in acquiring advanced technical services and facility-related infrastructure to maintain combat-ready forces. Climaco collaborates with a diverse ecosystem of contractors, primarily in construction, IT services, and specialized electrical systems. Though no single vendor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages with small businesses and niche specialty contractors capable of delivering tailored solutions for air force installations and training environments. Her working relationships reflect a preference for agile, responsive vendors with proven expertise in rapid deployment and compliance with military standards, fostering partnerships that prioritize reliability and mission adaptability. Climaco’s procurement activity is heavily oriented toward small business participation, with over 61% of acquisitions designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a strong institutional commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals, consistently channeling opportunities to small businesses without specific subset preferences disclosed, yet aligning with broader Air Force objectives to expand vendor diversity and enhance local economic impact through federal spending. Her primary industry focus lies in commercial and institutional building construction (NAICS 236220), followed by other computer-related services (541519) and electrical contracting (238210). She procures services related to facility modernization, data infrastructure support, and specialized instrumentation for testing and measurement systems, demonstrating technical fluency in both physical infrastructure and digital enablement domains critical to sustaining Air Force operations.
