Ashley Radtke

Ashley Radtke serves as a key procurement professional within the Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) of the U.S. Coast Guard, under the Department of Homeland Security, where she supports the sustainment and modernization of critical aviation systems. Her role centers on managing complex acquisitions for mission-critical aircraft components, avionics, and maintenance support services essential to the operational readiness of rotary- and fixed-wing platforms such as the MH-65E Dauphin and HC-144 Ocean Sentry. She handles full lifecycle contracting actions—from requirements development through contract award and administration—ensuring alignment with defense aviation standards and federal acquisition regulations. Her portfolio emphasizes technical procurement in support of legacy fleet longevity and system modernization initiatives. Radtke maintains consistent working relationships with leading aerospace and defense contractors including ROCKWELL COLLINS, INC., AIRBUS US SPACE & DEFENSE INC, and GOLDBELT INTEGRATED LOGISTICS SERVICES, LLC, among others. These partnerships span the design, manufacture, and sustainment of aircraft subsystems, avionics upgrades, and integrated logistics support. Her procurement approach favors established industry partners with proven capabilities in military aviation environments, often leveraging long-term service agreements and performance-based logistics contracts to ensure reliability and mission continuity. Radtke’s contracting activity reflects a 100% non-set-aside profile, indicating a primary focus on full and open competition without preference for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic programs. This pattern suggests an operational imperative to source specialized, mission-critical capabilities from the broadest possible pool of qualified vendors, prioritizing technical proficiency and proven performance over socioeconomic classifications. Her procurement focus is concentrated in NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing) and 336412 (Aircraft Engine and Engine Parts Manufacturing), with significant activity in engineering services (541330) and air transportation support (488190). She routinely acquires avionics, flight control systems, maintenance kits, and specialized test equipment, demonstrating deep expertise in aerospace sustainment and systems integration within the Coast Guard’s unique operational context.
