Daniel J. Lyons

Daniel Lyons serves as a Contracting Officer within the FA8601 Aflcmc Pzio under the Department of the Air Force, where he plays a pivotal role in securing mission-critical aerospace and defense systems. His portfolio encompasses high-precision instrumentation, electrotherapeutic and electromedical devices, and industrial measurement systems essential for flight testing, fuel analysis, and environmental monitoring. Lyons manages complex procurements requiring stringent technical compliance, often involving laboratory-grade analytical equipment and aeronautical navigation systems. He ensures acquisitions align with Air Force readiness objectives by applying rigorous FAR and DFARS standards to deliver reliable, mission-essential capabilities. Lyons maintains a consistent working relationship with C MARTIN CO INC, a key vendor providing specialized instrumentation and technical support services. His contracting approach emphasizes long-term vendor collaboration, prioritizing contractors with proven expertise in aerospace-grade calibration, precision manufacturing, and system integration. He engages with suppliers capable of meeting rigorous military specifications and maintaining traceable quality assurance protocols, fostering partnerships built on technical reliability and performance accountability. His contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for unrestricted competition, with 87.5% of awards issued without set-asides. The remaining 12.5% are awarded under Total Small Business Set-Asides in accordance with FAR 19.5, demonstrating a measured but deliberate commitment to small business participation without compromising mission-critical requirements.
