Collette A. Grosselin, Maj, USAF

Collette A. Grosselin serves as a Contracting Officer within the Department of the Air Force’s FA7014 office, where she leads the acquisition of mission-critical professional services essential to sustaining Air Force operational readiness. Her portfolio centers on systems engineering and technical assistance (SETA), cybersecurity infrastructure, enterprise IT modernization, and mission analytics. She is responsible for managing full lifecycle procurements under FAR and DFARS guidelines, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition standards while aligning contracts with the Air Force’s strategic modernization goals. Grosselin specializes in complex, performance-based solicitations requiring technical rigor and risk mitigation, often involving long-term service delivery agreements. Grosselin maintains enduring relationships with key contractors including SIGMATECH, INC. and PURDUE UNIVERSITY, both of which provide high-level technical expertise in cybersecurity, systems analysis, and advanced research support. Her contracting approach emphasizes long-term partnerships with organizations capable of delivering specialized, mission-aligned services under performance-based task orders. She favors vendors with proven track records in federal defense environments and prioritizes contract performance, innovation, and compliance over transactional engagements. Grosselin’s procurement activity reflects a strict focus on open competition, with 100% of her awards issued under no set-aside categories. She does not utilize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, instead prioritizing technical capability and mission suitability as the primary selection criteria. This approach underscores a commitment to acquiring the highest-quality expertise available, regardless of vendor size or certification status. Her primary procurement focus is exclusively under NAICS 561621 (Security Systems Services, except Locksmiths), reflecting a deep specialization in cybersecurity infrastructure, threat detection systems, and protective technology services. She consistently procures services related to network defense, secure cloud environments, identity and access management, and compliance with NIST and DoD RMF frameworks, demonstrating expert alignment with Air Force cyber modernization imperatives.
