Brenda Jackson-Pryor serves as a Contract Specialist within the Department of the Air Force at FA2860 316 Cons Pk, where she manages procurement activities critical to sustaining operational readiness at Joint Base Andrews. Her role centers on executing full-cycle contracting for security systems, communications hardware, and facility maintenance services that directly support command, control, and communications (C3) infrastructure. She ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurements with the agency’s mission to maintain high-integrity air operations environments, frequently handling complex service contracts requiring technical evaluation and performance-based specifications. Brenda maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including ZERO WASTE SOLUTIONS, INC, SENECA MINERAL COMPANY, and PELICAN CHEMICALS INC., partnering with vendors who deliver specialized environmental, chemical, and industrial support services essential to base operations. Her contracting approach emphasizes reliability, regulatory compliance, and performance accountability, often engaging firms with proven track records in hazardous material handling, infrastructure decontamination, and facility-specific maintenance solutions. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors capable of meeting stringent DoD environmental and safety standards. A strong advocate for small business participation, Brenda consistently prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, with approximately 71.4% of her acquisitions reserved for small businesses. Her socioeconomic contracting strategy reflects a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for small, disadvantaged, and locally-based vendors, aligning with Department of the Air Force goals to enhance resilience and community integration through inclusive procurement. Her primary procurement focus lies within NAICS 722310 (Food Service Contractors), where she manages catering and galley support contracts vital to personnel sustainment, alongside NAICS 339999 (All Other Miscellaneous Manufacturing) for custom-fabricated components used in communications and security systems. This dual specialization underscores her expertise in both service delivery and niche manufacturing procurement within a high-security military environment.
