Angela Ashmore

Angela Ashmore serves as a key procurement lead within the FA8770 Aflcmc Gbk, a critical unit of the Department of the Air Force responsible for sustaining and modernizing mission-critical command, control, and decision-support systems. She manages acquisitions for secure, scalable software solutions that enable real-time situational awareness, logistics coordination, and operational planning for air operations. Her portfolio centers on custom software development, data infrastructure modernization, and legacy system migration—particularly in scheduling, monitoring, and data management platforms essential to air warfare readiness. Ashmore ensures acquisitions align with Air Force digital transformation goals, prioritizing agility, cybersecurity compliance, and interoperability across joint domains. Her contractor relationships are primarily with firms specializing in custom computer programming and cloud-enabled computing infrastructure. She engages with a mix of large systems integrators and niche software developers capable of delivering secure, DoD-compliant applications under strict ITAR and NIST 800-53 controls. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently partners with vendors demonstrating proven experience in military-grade software development, DevSecOps pipelines, and legacy system modernization—particularly those with experience in Air Force-specific platforms such as C2BMC and JOPES. Ashmore’s contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 80% of awards issued under unrestricted solicitations. However, she actively supports small business participation through a consistent 20% allocation to 8(a) competed contracts, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to socioeconomic diversity without compromising mission requirements. Her approach balances competition and capability, ensuring small businesses with validated technical expertise have meaningful access to high-impact defense IT opportunities. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services), where she acquires tailored software for operational decision support, and NAICS 518210 (Computing Infrastructure Providers), where she secures secure cloud hosting, data processing, and web services. Her technical domain expertise spans real-time data analytics, mission planning systems, and secure middleware—ensuring air operations remain resilient, responsive, and digitally integrated.
