Anissa A. Ragland serves as a Contracting Officer for the FA4800 633 Cons Pkp under the Department of the Air Force, where she manages mission-critical procurement activities supporting airfield operations, base infrastructure, and IT resilience. Her portfolio encompasses technical services, communications systems, and facility sustainment contracts essential to maintaining operational readiness across Air Force installations. She specializes in complex acquisitions involving cybersecurity-enabled platforms, computing hardware, and integrated support services, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurement outcomes with Air Force modernization priorities. Ragland maintains consistent contracting relationships with key vendors including IMAGE BUSINESS INTERIORS LLC and NEXTGRADE INC, both of which provide specialized facility services and IT modernization solutions. Her working model emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships grounded in performance-based contracting and clear statement of work definitions. She prioritizes contractors with proven expertise in government-grade IT infrastructure, facility maintenance, and secure communications systems, fostering collaborative relationships that support lifecycle management and sustainment objectives. A staunch advocate for small business participation, Ragland consistently applies Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, with over half of her awards designated for small businesses overall.
