Frances W. Oxendine serves as a Contract Administrator within the FA4803 20 Cons Lgca unit of the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a critical role in executing facility infrastructure acquisitions that support operational readiness across military installations. Her responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle management of construction and maintenance contracts, including solicitation, evaluation, award, and administration of services related to commercial and institutional building systems, HVAC, roofing, and plumbing. She ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurements with the agency’s strategic priorities of base resilience and modernization. Oxendine maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of specialized contractors, most notably Carolina Ground Service Equipment Inc., which supports ground operations infrastructure. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven technical capabilities in facility systems and maintenance services, fostering long-term, performance-based partnerships that prioritize quality, reliability, and mission alignment. A strong advocate for small business participation, Oxendine consistently structures procurements with a Total Small Business Set-Aside (FAR 19.5) at 83.3%, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals. Her portfolio routinely channels opportunities to small businesses, ensuring broad access for firms capable of delivering specialized construction and facility support services across diverse geographic regions. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334220 (Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing) and NAICS 333996 (Fluid Power Pump and Motor Manufacturing), reflecting a technical emphasis on mission-critical communication systems and hydraulic/pneumatic components integral to facility operations and equipment maintenance. This dual specialization underscores her expertise in procuring complex, engineered systems that support both infrastructure integrity and operational functionality across Air Force installations.
