Ashley P. Feldman

2Lt Ashley P. Feldman serves as a contracting officer within the FA4819 325th Contracting Squadron under the Department of the Air Force, supporting critical infrastructure resilience and aerospace systems sustainment for Air Force installations. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions for specialized aviation components, facility modernization projects, and sensing technologies essential to operational readiness. She executes acquisitions under FAR and DFARS guidelines, focusing on mission-critical construction, repair, and technical upgrades to ensure base infrastructure durability and airpower readiness. Feldman’s portfolio spans both civil engineering and aerospace supply chain contracts, requiring deep familiarity with military construction standards and defense logistics frameworks. While specific contractor relationships are not currently available, Feldman routinely engages with a diverse pool of vendors specializing in aerospace manufacturing, facility construction, and technical support services. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and compliance with defense acquisition regulations, fostering partnerships with firms capable of delivering high-integrity, mission-essential systems under tight operational timelines. She maintains a collaborative working relationship with program managers and engineers to align procurement strategy with technical requirements and installation readiness goals. Feldman demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 35.7% of her acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. While no set-asides are currently designated for 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB categories, her consistent use of small business set-asides reflects a deliberate effort to expand economic opportunity within the defense industrial base while ensuring competitive, innovative solutions. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 481212 (nonscheduled chartered freight air transportation), 333618 (other engine equipment manufacturing), and 336413 (other aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment manufacturing), indicating deep engagement with propulsion systems, avionics support, and mission-critical aircraft components. She also procures institutional furniture and diagnostic imaging equipment for base medical and administrative facilities, demonstrating a broad yet technically grounded expertise in both aerospace and installation sustainment domains.
