Erica Dixon

Erica Dixon serves as a Contract Specialist within the Department of the Air Force’s FA2517 21 Cons Bldg 350 office, where she manages the acquisition of mission-critical infrastructure and facility systems essential to operational readiness. Her role encompasses the full lifecycle of contracting activities—from market research and solicitation development to award administration and contract closeout—focusing on procurement of building systems, electronic infrastructure, and facility modernization services. She ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning acquisitions with the agency’s strategic priorities in fire safety, communications integration, and resilient facility design. Erica maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including ASTERI CONSULTING SERVICES LLC, AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, ARHAB LLC, and PRIMEPRO BUSINESS SOLUTIONS LLC. These partnerships reflect a balanced mix of specialized engineering, construction, and technical services firms, many of which provide integrated solutions for HVAC, building automation, and facility compliance. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, requiring vendors to demonstrate technical proficiency and proven experience in defense-related infrastructure environments. A strong advocate for small business participation, Erica consistently prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, with over 62% of her awards reserved for small businesses. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster competition and expand access for qualified small firms across multiple socioeconomic categories, including HUBZone and SDVOSB entities, while maintaining rigorous performance standards. Her primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), with significant activity in building inspection services, office furniture manufacturing, consumer electronics distribution, and computer-related technical services. This diverse portfolio underscores her expertise in procuring integrated facility systems that support secure, high-performance Air Force installations.
