Bonnie L. Goetz

Bonnie L. Goetz serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA8750 AFRl Rik organization under the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in executing complex research and development acquisitions aligned with the agency’s mission to advance next-generation aerospace and defense technologies. She specializes in procuring professional, scientific, and technical services that support foundational innovation in autonomous systems, resilient communications, AI-driven battle-space awareness, and quantum-enabled technologies. Her acquisitions are mission-critical, ensuring that cutting-edge scientific capabilities are rapidly transitioned from laboratory research to operational readiness through agile, performance-based contracting methodologies. Goetz maintains longstanding relationships with leading defense and technology contractors including BOOZ ALLEN HAMILTON INC, LOCKHEED MARTIN CORPORATION, EATON CORPORATION, Technergetics, LLC, and Caelight, Inc. These partnerships are characterized by deep technical collaboration, often involving classified or sensitive R&D environments requiring stringent compliance with DoD acquisition regulations. Her contracting approach emphasizes technical excellence, risk mitigation, and timely delivery of high-priority science and engineering services, fostering trusted vendor relationships built on consistent performance and mission alignment. Her procurement portfolio reflects a strict focus on non-set-aside acquisitions, with 100% of her awards issued under full and open competition. This pattern underscores her alignment with the agency’s need for specialized, large-scale technical expertise that is currently available only through established industry leaders with proven capabilities in advanced aerospace R&D. There is no current preference for 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic programs in her portfolio. Goetz’s primary NAICS focus is 541990—All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services—reflecting her specialization in procuring high-end engineering, systems analysis, computational modeling, and applied physics services. She consistently acquires technical solutions in free-space optical communications, AI/ML algorithm development, quantum sensor integration, and resilient network architectures, supporting the Air Force’s strategic imperatives in next-generation warfare systems.
