Jacqueline Levesque

Jacqueline Levesque serves as a key procurement professional within the FA8681 AFLCMC EBD, supporting the Department of the Air Force’s mission to develop, produce, and sustain advanced munitions, guided missile systems, and precision strike technologies. She manages complex acquisitions spanning next-generation warhead design, propulsion systems, and integrated guidance electronics, ensuring alignment with national air and space dominance objectives. Her work directly enables the fielding of high-capacity ordnance and cutting-edge strike capabilities, requiring deep technical oversight and compliance with defense acquisition regulations. She typically handles sole-source, competitive, and urgent requirement contracts under the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement, with a focus on rapid prototyping and production sustainment cycles. Levesque engages with a diverse ecosystem of defense industrial base partners, including specialized manufacturers of guided missile components, radio frequency systems, and advanced electrical subsystems. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently collaborates with Tier 1 defense primes and niche technology firms possessing classified clearance and specialized engineering capabilities. Her contracting approach emphasizes technical fidelity, supply chain resilience, and dual-use innovation, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in performance-based outcomes and risk-sharing agreements. Her procurement patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 83.3% of acquisitions conducted without set-asides. However, she actively supports small business participation, allocating 16.7% of opportunities to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a balanced commitment to both mission-critical scale and socioeconomic goals. She does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, favoring broad small business eligibility to maximize innovation and competition. Levesque’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336415 (guided missile propulsion systems), 335999 (miscellaneous electrical components), and 334220 (wireless communications equipment), with an additional 25% in medical laboratories—an unusual but strategic alignment likely supporting biological agent detection or munitions safety testing. Her technical domain expertise spans propulsion chemistry, electronic warfare interfaces, and autonomous guidance architectures, making her a critical link between warfighter requirements and advanced ordnance industrial capabilities.
