Ashley Pace

Ashley Pace supports the procurement mission of FA4620 92 Cons Lgc within the Department of the Air Force, facilitating the acquisition of mission-critical infrastructure and operational support systems essential to air base readiness. While their formal title is not specified, their role involves managing complex contracts for industrial maintenance, security systems, and specialized equipment that sustain aviation and ground support infrastructure. Pace handles a diverse portfolio of acquisitions spanning technical, logistical, and facility-based services, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and alignment with Air Force operational priorities. Pace maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors, including Didsbury Inc., ACOUSTIC TECHNOLOGY, INC., NW TEL, LLC, RHODES STEPHENNE, and ATS INLAND NW LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for specialized vendors capable of delivering niche industrial, acoustic, telecommunications, and equipment maintenance services. The contracting patterns suggest a reliance on established, technically proficient firms with proven capabilities in defense-adjacent environments, indicating a focus on reliability, compliance, and performance-based outcomes over broad market competition. Set-aside preferences reveal a balanced approach to socioeconomic contracting, with 40% of awards designated for Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, while 60% remain open to all competitors. This pattern demonstrates a deliberate commitment to small business participation without compromising access to qualified large vendors, aligning with Air Force objectives to foster competition while expanding opportunities for small, capable firms. Pace’s procurement focus is distributed evenly across five distinct NAICS categories: Educational Support Services, Power and Specialty Transformer Manufacturing, Personal and Household Goods Repair and Maintenance, Medical Laboratories, and Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing. This diverse technical portfolio underscores expertise in managing acquisitions for both facility infrastructure and specialized defense-related equipment, requiring deep familiarity with technical specifications, supply chain logistics, and compliance frameworks governing dual-use and mission-critical systems.
