Angelica Stevenson

Angelica Stevenson serves as a key procurement lead within the FA4417 1 Socons, a critical unit under the Department of the Air Force responsible for sustaining and modernizing airpower capabilities through advanced mission-enabling acquisitions. She specializes in managing contracts for secure radio and wireless communications systems, aeronautical navigation equipment, and integrated base defense infrastructure, ensuring operational resilience for air operations worldwide. Her work directly supports the agency’s strategic imperative to enhance battlefield connectivity and command-and-control capabilities through cutting-edge, secure, and interoperable technologies. Stevenson oversees the full lifecycle of acquisition actions—from requirements validation to contract award and administration—ensuring alignment with Air Force modernization priorities and defense acquisition regulations. She maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including AANTILIA LLC, MARRERO, COUVILLON & ASSOCIATES, L.L.C., MATTHES PARKER LLC, L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED, and WALCO ENTERPRISES INC., all of whom provide specialized engineering, systems integration, and infrastructure support services. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven expertise in defense communications and aeronautical systems, often leveraging firm-fixed-price and cost-reimbursement contract types to mitigate risk while ensuring technical performance. Stevenson exhibits a balanced approach to socioeconomic contracting, with an equal split between total small business set-asides and open competitions, demonstrating a strong commitment to fostering competition among small businesses under FAR 19.5 without compromising mission readiness. Her portfolio consistently prioritizes small business participation, particularly those with technical capabilities in communications and infrastructure support. Her primary procurement focus is centered on NAICS 237110—Water and Sewer Line and Related Structures Construction—indicating a specialized emphasis on mission-critical base infrastructure projects that enable secure communications and defense system deployment, despite the apparent mismatch with typical Air Force tech acquisitions. This suggests a unique operational need for hardened, survivable, and geographically dispersed utility and support infrastructure to sustain advanced air operations.
