Cheyenne Youngbird serves as a Contracting Officer for the FA4690 28 Cons Pkc under the Department of the Air Force, where she manages the acquisition of mission-critical infrastructure and facility support services essential to Air Force installation readiness. Her portfolio encompasses industrial maintenance, environmental control systems, security hardware, and facility modernization contracts, ensuring operational continuity across critical aerospace installations. She is responsible for full lifecycle procurement activities—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—aligning acquisitions with Air Force sustainment priorities and federal acquisition regulations. Youngbird maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including Ostrom Painting & Sandblasting, Inc., and Astronics Test Systems Inc., both of which deliver specialized industrial services and technical testing solutions. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and technical compliance, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in quality assurance, timely delivery, and adherence to military-grade specifications. She prioritizes contractors with proven expertise in facility systems integration and industrial maintenance, ensuring mission-critical infrastructure remains operational under demanding conditions. Youngbird’s contracting activity reflects a 100% no set-aside profile, indicating a focus on full and open competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides. While she does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, her acquisitions remain compliant with all applicable socioeconomic statutes, and she actively evaluates vendor capabilities based on technical merit and past performance rather than certification status. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 332321 (Metal Window and Door Manufacturing), 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), and 238910 (Site Preparation Contractors). She routinely procures climate control systems, structural enclosures, and site grading services critical to facility resilience, demonstrating deep expertise in construction-related industrial systems and environmental sustainment technologies for military installations.
