Ashley S Harbison

Ashley S. Harbison serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA4600 55 Cons Pkp unit of the Department of the Air Force, where she manages the acquisition of mission-critical infrastructure and technical services essential to Air Force operational readiness. Her portfolio focuses on sustaining and modernizing physical facilities, secure communications systems, and cyber-enabled infrastructure across installations. She specializes in complex service and construction contracts governed by FAR Part 36 and FAR Part 12, ensuring compliance with defense-specific requirements for reliability, security, and resilience. Harbison plays a pivotal role in translating mission needs into enforceable contractual deliverables that support facility operations, HVAC systems, and controlled environment maintenance. She maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including COMMAND CONTROL COMMUNICATIONS ENGINEERING & LOGISTICS LLC, PRIMECORPS LLC, TECHNOLOGISTY LLC, AMORSERV LLC, and ELKHORN WEST CONSTRUCTION, INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced firms capable of delivering integrated facility services, technical maintenance, and construction support under tight operational timelines. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear statement of work definitions, and rigorous contractor oversight to ensure mission continuity. Harbison demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with over half of her awards structured as Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-asides. She also regularly utilizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and maintains a balanced approach with non-set-aside procurements when full and open competition is warranted, reflecting a deliberate strategy to expand vendor diversity while meeting urgent mission demands.
