Courtney Fluellen

Courtney Fluellen serves as a Contracting Specialist within the Department of the Air Force’s FA7014 office, where she plays a pivotal role in acquiring professional and technical services critical to sustaining Air Force operational readiness. Her portfolio centers on systems engineering and technical assistance (SETA), cybersecurity infrastructure, enterprise IT modernization, and mission-critical analytics. Fluellen manages full lifecycle procurements under FAR Part 15, leveraging competitive bidding, task order contracts, and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) vehicles to ensure timely delivery of high-priority capabilities. She works closely with technical stakeholders to translate mission needs into compliant, risk-mitigated acquisition strategies aligned with DoD and Air Force modernization priorities. Fluellen maintains strong, ongoing relationships with key contractors including SIGMATECH, INC. and PURDUE UNIVERSITY, reflecting a blend of commercial and academic partnerships. Her contracting approach emphasizes long-term vendor collaboration, particularly with firms possessing deep expertise in defense-grade IT services and research-driven technical support. These relationships are cultivated through consistent task order awards and performance-based contract structures that incentivize innovation and mission alignment. Her procurement patterns show a balanced commitment to socioeconomic goals, with nearly half of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate focus on enabling small business participation. While the majority of her acquisitions remain open to all competitors, her consistent use of small business set-asides underscores a proactive effort to broaden the vendor base and foster competitive diversity in defense contracting. Fluellen’s primary NAICS focus areas include 334310 (Audio and Video Equipment Manufacturing) and 813920 (Professional Organizations), reflecting demand for specialized technical support and association-based advisory services. She also frequently procures services under 541513 (Computer Facilities Management Services) and 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), underscoring her expertise in enterprise IT operations, managed services, and mission-enabling technology solutions that support Air Force infrastructure resilience and digital transformation.
