Gage V. Bergman

Gage V. Bergman serves as a key procurement lead within the FA2823 AFTC PZIO under the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing acquisitions that support the development, integration, and sustainment of advanced airborne and ground-based sensing, communication, and test instrumentation systems. His work directly enables mission-critical capabilities in avionics, electronic warfare, radar, and signal intelligence platforms, ensuring the readiness and modernization of test and evaluation infrastructure. Bergman routinely handles complex technical contracts for hardware, software, and systems integration services, with a focus on electromagnetic compatibility, data acquisition, and real-time control systems essential to aerospace testing. He maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors including TOM HAMMONDS ENTERPRISES, LLC, STREET LEGAL INDUSTRIES, INC, SPEEGLE CONSTRUCTION, INC, DETECT INC, and THE CONTROLS COMPANY, LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for specialized vendors with proven expertise in niche technical domains such as ruggedized instrumentation, signal processing hardware, and facility modernization for test ranges. Bergman’s contracting approach emphasizes reliability, technical precision, and long-term supportability over broad competition. Bergman’s portfolio exhibits no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a mission-driven prioritization of technical capability and schedule fidelity over socioeconomic targeting, though it does not preclude small business participation when vendors meet stringent performance criteria. His primary NAICS focus includes 562219 (nonhazardous waste disposal), 511210 (software publishing), 336212 (truck trailer manufacturing), 811219 (other personal services), and 541512 (computer systems design). These reflect a diverse procurement landscape spanning facility support, embedded software, specialized vehicle modifications, and systems engineering services—all aligned with the operational needs of high-fidelity aerospace test environments.
