James H. Pattullo serves as a key procurement professional within the FA2823 AFTC PZIO under the Department of the Air Force, supporting the development and integration of advanced airborne and ground-based sensing, communication, and test instrumentation systems. He manages acquisitions critical to aerospace mission readiness, focusing on avionics, electronic warfare, radar, and signal intelligence platforms. His portfolio centers on engineering services, test equipment manufacturing, and mission-critical IT systems that enhance the Air Force’s test and evaluation infrastructure. Pattullo ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurements with strategic modernization goals for electromagnetic spectrum dominance and systems interoperability. Pattullo maintains consistent relationships with a select group of specialized 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 niche vendors with proven expertise in high-precision instrumentation, electromagnetic compatibility testing, and ruggedized system integration. His contracting patterns emphasize technical capability over scale, favoring firms with deep domain knowledge in aerospace test environments and mission-critical signal processing. His procurement approach prioritizes open competition, with 75% of awards issued without set-aside designation. The remaining awards reflect moderate engagement with socioeconomic programs, including 8(a) competed contracts and total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a balanced commitment to small business participation without compromising mission-critical performance requirements. Pattullo’s primary NAICS focus areas include engineering services (541330), computer-related services (541519), and the manufacture of aerospace and electronic test instrumentation (334511, 334515). He regularly procures custom-built sensors, signal conditioning systems, data acquisition hardware, and embedded software solutions tailored for high-fidelity test ranges and field-deployable electronic warfare platforms, underscoring his technical expertise in aerospace systems integration and test instrumentation.
