Anne F Hunt

Anne S. Hunt serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of complex procurement actions, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and promoting efficient, transparent contracting practices. She specializes in the acquisition of aerospace and mechanical components, overseeing solicitations from market research through contract award and administration. Her work supports mission-critical national defense and aviation systems, requiring deep technical understanding of manufacturing standards and supply chain dynamics. Hunt ensures all procurements align with statutory requirements while optimizing value and performance for the government. Her contractor relationships are primarily with manufacturers of aircraft subsystems, precision bearings, and mechanical power transmission equipment. She engages with a diverse base of industrial suppliers, including large primes and mid-tier manufacturers with specialized engineering capabilities. Hunt fosters collaborative vendor partnerships grounded in technical compliance, quality assurance, and delivery reliability, often working with firms holding AS9100 and ISO 9001 certifications. Her approach emphasizes long-term supplier performance and risk mitigation in high-reliability supply chains. While the majority of her acquisitions are conducted as unrestricted competitions, Hunt demonstrates a measurable commitment to small business participation, with approximately 9.7% of her portfolio allocated to small business set-asides. She frequently utilizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and has a consistent track record of awarding contracts to Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses and HUBZone-certified firms, reflecting a deliberate effort to broaden economic opportunity within the industrial base. Her procurement focus is concentrated in NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing), with significant activity in NAICS 332991 (Ball and Roller Bearing Manufacturing) and NAICS 333613 (Mechanical Power Transmission Equipment Manufacturing). She specializes in procuring high-precision, mission-critical components used in aerospace and defense systems, requiring expertise in material specifications, tolerances, and qualification testing. Her technical domain knowledge ensures acquisitions meet stringent performance and safety standards for aviation and industrial applications.
