Iginia McNeil, Procuring Contracting Officer

Iginia M. McNeil serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA2823 AFTC PZIO under the Department of the Air Force, where she manages the acquisition of critical aerospace test and evaluation systems. Her role centers on procuring advanced sensing, communication, and instrumentation technologies essential to avionics, electronic warfare, and signal intelligence platforms. She ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while supporting the agency’s mission to modernize test infrastructure and enhance electromagnetic compatibility and measurement precision across airborne and ground-based systems. McNeil handles complex, technically demanding contracts requiring deep domain expertise in aerospace engineering and systems integration. She maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including TOM HAMMONDS ENTERPRISES, LLC, STREET LEGAL INDUSTRIES, INC, SPEEGLE CONSTRUCTION, INC, DETECT INC, and THE CONTROLS COMPANY, LLC. These vendors provide specialized engineering services, test equipment, and mission-critical hardware tailored to defense aviation requirements. McNeil fosters collaborative, performance-based partnerships that emphasize technical reliability, rapid prototyping, and field-deployable solutions, often engaging contractors early in the requirements definition phase to ensure alignment with operational needs. McNeil’s contracting portfolio reflects a balanced approach to socioeconomic participation, with nearly half of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. While the majority of acquisitions remain open to all competitors, her consistent use of small business set-asides demonstrates a strong commitment to expanding opportunities for qualified small businesses, particularly those with niche capabilities in defense-grade instrumentation and systems integration. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334511 for aerospace and navigation systems and 336350 for powertrain components, alongside related categories in packaging machinery and research and development services. She routinely acquires high-precision test instrumentation, signal processing hardware, and ruggedized control systems used in flight testing and electromagnetic environment simulation, demonstrating deep familiarity with the technical demands of aerospace test and evaluation.
