Faith Harris

Faith Harris serves as a key procurement lead within the U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM), operating under agency code H92241, where she manages the acquisition of mission-critical aviation systems and sensor technologies essential to special operations forces. Her responsibilities center on securing advanced avionics, electronic warfare suites, navigation and guidance instruments, and integrated mission support systems that enhance aircraft survivability and situational awareness in high-threat environments. She plays a pivotal role in translating operational requirements from special operations units into technically rigorous solicitations, ensuring timely delivery of cutting-edge capabilities that meet the unique demands of classified and expeditionary missions. Faith Harris collaborates with a network of defense prime contractors and specialized systems integrators experienced in ruggedized aerospace electronics, secure data links, and electro-optical sensor fusion. While specific vendor names are not publicly disclosed, her contracting patterns indicate consistent engagement with firms possessing ITAR compliance, TS/SCI clearance capabilities, and proven experience in low-observable and jam-resistant avionics. Her working relationships emphasize technical excellence, rapid prototyping cycles, and agile contract execution to support time-sensitive operational deployments. Her procurement portfolio reflects a strict preference for open competition, with 100% of acquisitions conducted under non-set-aside authorities. This indicates a focus on mission readiness over socioeconomic preferences, prioritizing technical capability and proven performance over certification-based set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. Her primary procurement focus lies within NAICS 334511—Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing—reflecting deep expertise in acquiring precision navigation systems, inertial measurement units, terrain-following radar, electronic attack payloads, and mission computer architectures. She specializes in sourcing technologies that enable real-time data fusion, secure communications, and autonomous flight systems for special operations aircraft, demonstrating a technical command of aerospace electronics and mission systems integration.
