Anthony Sabellico

Anthony Sabellico serves as a Contracting Officer within the Department of the Air Force’s FA7014 office, responsible for managing complex professional services acquisitions that sustain and modernize Air Force operational readiness. He oversees the procurement of systems engineering and technical assistance (SETA), enterprise IT modernization, cybersecurity infrastructure, and mission-critical analytics services. His portfolio is strategically aligned with the agency’s mission to enhance technical capabilities through specialized contractor support, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and mission-driven outcomes. Sabellico plays a pivotal role in executing full and open competitions while maintaining rigorous oversight of contract performance and risk mitigation. Sabellico maintains enduring relationships with key contractors including SIGMATECH, INC. and Purdue University, reflecting a balanced approach to partnering with both industry leaders and academic research institutions. He frequently engages vendors capable of delivering high-assurance technical solutions, particularly in software development, defense systems analysis, and applied research. His contracting patterns emphasize long-term, performance-based agreements that foster innovation and institutional knowledge transfer, often leveraging cost-reimbursement and time-and-materials contract types to accommodate evolving mission requirements. Sabellico’s procurement portfolio reflects a strict preference for full and open competition, with 100% of his awards issued without socioeconomic set-asides. This approach underscores a mission-first strategy prioritizing technical capability and mission-critical performance over socioeconomic preferences, though he remains compliant with all federal small business participation requirements. His contracting decisions are driven by the need for specialized expertise rather than demographic targeting. His primary NAICS focus areas—332994 (Small Arms and Ordnance Manufacturing), 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services), and 541712 (R&D in Physical and Engineering Sciences)—reveal deep specialization in defense systems engineering, software development for mission-critical platforms, and applied research supporting Air Force modernization. He consistently procures advanced technical services requiring high-level clearance, systems integration expertise, and domain-specific knowledge in aerospace and cybersecurity domains.
