David C. Moore

David C. Moore serves as a Contracting Specialist within the FA3300 42 Cons Cc under the Department of the Air Force, supporting the educational and operational readiness missions of Air University. He manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions focused on modernizing training environments through immersive simulation technologies, advanced audiovisual systems, and mission-critical facility infrastructure. His responsibilities include soliciting, evaluating, and awarding contracts in compliance with FAR and DFARS regulations, ensuring alignment with Air Force strategic priorities in command, control, and instructional technology. Moore routinely handles complex procurements requiring technical specificity and lifecycle support, bridging the gap between operational needs and commercial capabilities. Moore collaborates with a broad spectrum of vendors, including manufacturers of communications and audiovisual equipment, custom millwork specialists, and content development firms. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, his contracting patterns reflect a preference for established suppliers with proven technical expertise in defense-adjacent sectors. He maintains collaborative, compliance-driven relationships with vendors, emphasizing performance metrics, deliverable clarity, and post-award oversight to ensure mission-critical systems meet rigorous Air Force standards. His set-aside preferences are overwhelmingly non-set-aside, with 92.3% of awards issued under full and open competition, reflecting a focus on technical merit and capability over socioeconomic categorization. Nevertheless, he consistently allocates 7.7% of opportunities to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a measured but intentional commitment to small business participation without compromising mission requirements. Moore’s procurement focus centers on NAICS 334290 (Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing), 334310 (Audio and Video Equipment Manufacturing), 337212 (Custom Architectural Woodwork and Millwork), 511130 (Software Publishers), and 511210 (Internet Publishing and Broadcasting). These reflect a technical domain expertise in immersive training systems, AV integration, instructional media development, and facility-specific custom construction—enabling the delivery of next-generation learning environments for Air Force education and readiness.
