Breysi Stephens

Breysi Stephens serves as a Contract Specialist with the 355th Contracting Squadron (FA4877) under the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions that sustain airpower readiness. Her responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle management of contracts for specialized aerospace components, avionics systems, maintenance services, and facility infrastructure supporting aircraft operations and base functionality. She ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurements with operational priorities across training, logistics, and sustainment domains, frequently engaging in complex, technical solicitations requiring deep subject-matter expertise in defense procurement. Stephens maintains established working relationships with key contractors including MILLER ELECTRIC COMPANY INC., ATLANTIC PACIFIC STANDARD LLC, DAP CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT LLC, BSE PERFORMANCE, LLC, and LAVISH LIFE TECHNOLOGIES LLC. These partnerships reflect a balanced approach to sourcing, combining established industrial suppliers with niche providers of specialized equipment and technical services. Her contracting patterns indicate a preference for vendors with proven capability in aerospace-grade manufacturing, facility modernization, and mission-support systems, fostering reliable, performance-based vendor relationships grounded in technical proficiency and regulatory compliance. While the majority of her acquisitions—71.8%—are conducted without set-asides, Stephens consistently supports small business participation, with 28.2% of awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to integrate qualified small businesses into the defense supply chain without compromising mission requirements, aligning with Air Force goals for broad-based economic opportunity and resilient sourcing. Her procurement focus centers on NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing), underscoring deep expertise in sourcing flight-critical components and auxiliary systems. Additional emphasis on NAICS 511210 (Software Publishers) and 237120 (Oil and Gas Pipeline Construction) reveals a diversified portfolio that includes digital infrastructure and specialized construction services, demonstrating her ability to manage technically complex acquisitions across multiple industrial sectors critical to Air Force operational continuity.
