Aubrey B Lewis

Aubrey B. Lewis serves as a Contracting Officer within the Headquarters, Air Force Materiel Command (FA5066/PK), responsible for executing complex acquisitions that support the Department of the Air Force’s mission to sustain air superiority through advanced aerospace and electronic systems. In this role, Lewis manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for high-precision instrumentation, test and evaluation equipment, and mission-critical communications systems. Their portfolio emphasizes technical acquisitions essential to aircraft sensor modernization, weapons system integrity, and laboratory-grade analytical platforms, ensuring alignment with Air Force readiness objectives and defense innovation priorities. Lewis maintains a broad network of vendor partnerships, engaging with specialized technical service providers, scientific consultants, and precision manufacturing firms to fulfill mission-driven requirements. While no single contractor dominates their award portfolio, Lewis consistently collaborates with firms possessing deep expertise in aerospace instrumentation, systems integration, and defense-grade testing services. Their contracting approach prioritizes technical competency, compliance with DoD acquisition regulations, and performance-based outcomes, fostering long-term relationships with vendors capable of delivering mission-critical solutions under stringent security and quality standards. Lewis demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with 80% of acquisitions conducted under full and open competition and 20% reserved for total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. Though no specific 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB preferences are evident, their consistent use of small business set-asides reflects a deliberate strategy to expand participation among qualified small firms in the defense technology ecosystem. Their primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 325413 (In-Vitro Diagnostic Substance Manufacturing), reflecting demand for specialized chemical and biological detection systems, complemented by significant activity in 541380 (Testing Laboratories and Services), 541511 (Custom Computer Programming), and 541690 (Scientific Consulting). This technical profile underscores deep expertise in procuring laboratory-grade analytical tools, software-driven test platforms, and engineering services critical to aerospace systems evaluation and operational readiness.
