Capt Jiajia Lee

Capt Jiajia Lee serves as Program Manager for the FA8621 Aflcmc Wnsk Sims, a critical unit within the Department of the Air Force responsible for sustaining and modernizing advanced aircrew training systems and integrated avionics infrastructure. In this role, she leads the acquisition lifecycle for mission-critical simulation platforms, synthetic training environments, and embedded logistics systems that ensure pilot and maintenance crew readiness across high-performance aircraft fleets. Her procurement portfolio encompasses complex systems integration, software-defined training architectures, and real-time data analytics tools designed to enhance operational proficiency and reduce lifecycle sustainment costs. She works closely with engineering teams and operational stakeholders to translate warfighter requirements into technically sound, performance-based acquisition strategies. Capt Lee’s contractor relationships span leading defense aerospace and systems integration firms with proven expertise in aviation training systems, including vendors specializing in high-fidelity flight simulators, distributed mission training networks, and open-architecture avionics. She consistently engages with prime contractors capable of delivering end-to-end solutions—from hardware integration to software sustainment—and collaborates with subcontractors to ensure technical innovation and rapid fielding. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance outcomes, modular open systems architecture (MOSA), and lifecycle support, fostering long-term partnerships with vendors who demonstrate agility, cybersecurity compliance, and systems interoperability. Capt Lee’s contracting activity reflects a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without set-asides. While she does not prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, her emphasis on technical excellence and mission-critical performance creates opportunities for small businesses to participate as subcontractors within larger prime contracts, particularly in niche areas like training analytics and embedded diagnostics. Her industry focus centers on NAICS categories related to defense simulation, avionics systems integration, and military training equipment. She procures advanced flight training devices, synthetic environment software, mission rehearsal systems, and sustainment services for next-generation cockpit interfaces. Her technical expertise lies in digital twin applications, real-time data fusion, and training system interoperability across legacy and modern aircraft platforms.
