Danielle Hunziker

Danielle Hunziker serves as a key procurement lead within the FA2550 50 Cons Pkp unit of the Department of the Air Force, overseeing the acquisition of mission-critical aerospace and space communications systems. She plays a central role in sustaining and modernizing the Air Force’s space domain infrastructure, managing contracts for advanced radio and wireless communications equipment, satellite telemetry systems, and precision electronic test instrumentation. Her work directly supports operational readiness by ensuring the procurement of reliable, high-performance hardware essential for national defense space operations and ground-based command and control networks. Her primary contractor relationships are with firms specializing in the manufacture of wireless communications equipment, including the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment and Blue Skies Furniture LLC, though these entities likely serve as administrative or logistical partners rather than technical suppliers. Her contracting patterns suggest a focus on non-traditional vendor engagement, potentially leveraging state or ancillary service providers to support procurement logistics or facility-based operations tied to equipment deployment. Hunziker maintains a strict 100% Small Business Set-Aside preference under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a robust commitment to socioeconomic contracting. All acquisitions are reserved exclusively for small businesses, ensuring broad participation from eligible firms across the defense industrial base. This approach fosters innovation and capacity building within the small business community, aligning with Department of Defense mandates to expand supplier diversity in critical technology sectors. Her procurement focus is exclusively centered on NAICS 334220—Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing. She specializes in acquiring hardened RF transceivers, secure waveform-capable radios, satellite ground terminals, and calibrated test and measurement instruments used in space and airborne platforms. Her technical domain expertise lies in electromagnetic systems, signal integrity, and compliance with military communication standards such as MIL-STD-461 and DO-160.
