Desma Jones

Desma Jones serves as a key procurement lead within the FA3016 502 Cons Cl unit of the Department of the Air Force, supporting the sustainment and modernization of mission-critical Air Force installations. Responsible for managing a diverse portfolio of service and supply contracts, Jones ensures operational readiness through the acquisition of specialized facility, medical, and infrastructure support services. Her work directly enables the agency’s mission to maintain safe, functional, and technologically advanced environments for personnel and equipment, with a focus on high-reliability service delivery across non-combat support domains. Jones maintains consistent contracting relationships with a core group of vendors including PERRY MANAGEMENT CORP OF SOUTH DAKOTA, L.L.C, WILLIAM T BROOKS & ASSOCIATES INC, CITADEL FEDERAL SOLUTIONS LLC, NEXLEGACY LLC, and AJ COMMERCIAL SERVICES, INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established service providers capable of delivering complex, multi-disciplinary support—ranging from facility maintenance to specialized medical logistics. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and long-term vendor reliability over transactional engagements. While the majority of her acquisitions (66.7%) are unrestricted, Jones demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with one-third of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This pattern underscores a deliberate strategy to foster competitive opportunity among qualified small firms without reliance on specialized socioeconomic programs like 8(a) or HUBZone. Her procurement focus centers on five primary NAICS categories, with significant emphasis on surgical appliance manufacturing (339113), child care services (624410), event promotion with facilities (711310), hotel and motel operations (721110), and miscellaneous manufacturing (339999). These reflect a unique blend of institutional support services required to sustain Air Force living, medical, and administrative infrastructure—indicating expertise in non-traditional defense procurement domains that support quality of life and operational continuity.
