Heaven Carroll

Heaven Carroll serves as a Contract Specialist with the FA4417 1 Socons under the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions for advanced communications systems, aeronautical navigation equipment, and integrated base defense technologies. Her work directly supports the sustainment and modernization of airpower capabilities, ensuring operational resilience through secure, high-performance infrastructure. Carroll manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—focusing on complex, technically demanding contracts for radio and wireless systems, surveillance platforms, and mission-enabling logistics support. She maintains established working relationships with key contractors including AANTILIA LLC, MARRERO, COUVILLON & ASSOCIATES, L.L.C., MATTHES PARKER LLC, L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED, and WALCO ENTERPRISES INC., who consistently deliver specialized engineering, technical support, and facility services aligned with Air Force operational requirements. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and risk-mitigated vendor partnerships, often engaging firms with proven expertise in defense communications and aerospace logistics. Carroll’s procurement portfolio reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 72.1% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions. Nevertheless, she actively promotes small business participation, allocating 25.6% of awards to total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 and an additional 2.3% to service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, demonstrating a balanced commitment to both efficiency and socioeconomic goals. Her primary technical focus lies in NAICS 811310 for commercial and industrial machinery repair and maintenance, alongside supporting categories such as office administrative services, airport operations, and janitorial services—all critical to sustaining forward-deployed and garrisoned Air Force installations. This blend of technical and operational procurement expertise enables her to effectively bridge mission needs with responsive, compliant contracting solutions.
