Andrew C. St. Maurice

Andrew C. St. Maurice serves as a key procurement lead within the FA2381 Force Protection Aflcmc/hbuk, supporting the Department of the Air Force’s mission to deploy and sustain advanced counter-small unmanned aircraft systems and integrated force protection infrastructure. He manages the acquisition lifecycle for mission-critical security systems, including detection, tracking, and neutralization technologies, as well as the physical and cyber infrastructure required to support operational readiness. His portfolio emphasizes engineering integration, system sustainment, and rapid fielding of next-generation defenses against evolving aerial threats, ensuring compliance with DoD standards for resilience and interoperability. St. Maurice collaborates with a diverse range of contractors specializing in security systems integration, electrical infrastructure, and custom metal fabrication. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he routinely engages firms with expertise in C-sUAS hardware, sensor fusion software, and hardened facility construction. His contracting approach prioritizes technical capability, supply chain reliability, and rapid prototyping, fostering partnerships with vendors capable of meeting stringent military performance and environmental requirements under tight timelines. His procurement strategy reflects a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of acquisitions conducted without set-asides, indicating a focus on technical merit and capability over socioeconomic classifications. This approach underscores a mission-driven emphasis on performance and readiness, rather than socioeconomic targeting, while still ensuring broad market participation through competitive solicitation. St. Maurice’s primary NAICS focus areas include Electrical Contractors and Other Wiring Installation Contractors, Security Systems Services, Other Computer Related Services, and Prefabricated Metal Building and Component Manufacturing. These reflect his specialization in procuring integrated physical and digital security systems—ranging from RF detection arrays and command-and-control software to hardened enclosures and power distribution networks—that form the backbone of modern air base defense architecture.
