Ana Holloway

Ana Holloway serves as a key procurement lead within the FA2823 AFTC PZIO, a specialized unit of the Department of the Air Force focused on advancing airborne and ground-based sensing, communication, and test instrumentation systems. She manages acquisitions critical to the modernization of aerospace test and evaluation infrastructure, overseeing contracts for high-precision avionics, electronic warfare sensors, radar calibration systems, and signal intelligence hardware. Her role ensures alignment with mission-critical readiness goals by facilitating timely delivery of technically complex, ruggedized instrumentation and control systems used in live-fire testing and electromagnetic environment simulation. Holloway maintains consistent working relationships with a focused group of contractors, including TOM HAMMONDS ENTERPRISES, LLC, STREET LEGAL INDUSTRIES, INC, SPEEGLE CONSTRUCTION, INC, DETECT INC, and THE CONTROLS COMPANY, LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for specialized vendors capable of delivering custom-engineered solutions in ruggedized enclosures, electromagnetic shielding, signal conditioning hardware, and field-deployable test platforms. Her procurement approach emphasizes technical compliance, rapid prototyping support, and integration with existing Air Force test ranges, fostering long-term vendor collaboration on iterative system upgrades. A strong advocate for small business participation, Holloway directs approximately two-thirds of her acquisitions toward Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to socioeconomic contracting. While no single category dominates beyond small business status, her portfolio consistently prioritizes firms with proven capabilities in niche manufacturing and technical services, ensuring broad-based industry engagement. Her primary NAICS focus spans 332993 for ammunition component manufacturing, 332321 for metal window and door fabrication, and 238320 for specialized painting and coating contractors—domains that support unique requirements for electromagnetic interference shielding, environmental sealing, and corrosion-resistant finishes on test instrumentation housings. This unconventional blend reflects deep technical understanding of how non-traditional manufacturing capabilities enable mission-critical aerospace test system durability and performance.
