George Tamayo

George S. Tamayo serves as a Contracting Specialist within the Department of the Air Force’s FA7014 office, where he plays a pivotal role in procuring mission-critical professional services that sustain and modernize Air Force operational readiness. His portfolio centers on systems engineering and technical assistance (SETA), enterprise IT modernization, cybersecurity infrastructure, and administrative management consulting. Tamayo manages the full lifecycle of acquisitions—from market research and solicitation to award and contract administration—ensuring compliance with FAR and DFARS while aligning procurements with the agency’s strategic priorities in defense technology and mission support. He maintains established relationships with key contractors including SIGMATECH, INC. and PURDUE UNIVERSITY, reflecting a balanced approach to partnering with both specialized defense contractors and academic research institutions. These collaborations often support complex technical requirements in data analytics, systems integration, and workforce development. Tamayo’s contracting patterns emphasize long-term, performance-based engagements that require high levels of technical expertise and compliance with federal security standards. While the majority of his acquisitions are unrestricted (79.3%), Tamayo consistently supports small business participation through Total Small Business Set-Asides (17.2%) and Women-Owned Small Business contracts (3.5%). His socioeconomic contracting approach reflects a deliberate effort to broaden vendor diversity without compromising mission needs, favoring FAR 19.5 set-asides over niche programs like 8(a) or HUBZone. His primary NAICS focus areas include Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services (541611) and Information Services (511210), underscoring his specialization in professional services that enhance decision-making, operational efficiency, and mission analytics. He also regularly procures travel and lodging services (721110) and professional organization support (813920), indicating a broad operational footprint that supports both technical and administrative mission enablers across Air Force installations.
