Jami L. Andre

Jami L. Andre serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions within the defense and aerospace sectors. With a focus on technical procurement compliance, Jami ensures that all contracts adhere to FAR regulations and agency mission objectives, particularly in the procurement of specialized aircraft components and electrical systems. Their work supports critical national defense capabilities by securing reliable, high-performance parts through competitive and compliant contracting processes, often coordinating with engineering, logistics, and program management teams to align procurement strategy with operational needs. While specific contractor names are not available, Jami maintains a consistent procurement pattern centered on vendors capable of manufacturing complex aerospace subsystems and auxiliary equipment. The contracting approach emphasizes technical capability, quality assurance, and timely delivery, fostering long-term partnerships with manufacturers possessing the requisite certifications and production infrastructure. Vendor relationships are cultivated through transparent solicitation processes and rigorous source selection criteria, ensuring alignment with performance and compliance standards. Jami demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 25% of acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. Although the majority of contracts are unrestricted, the consistent use of small business set-asides reflects a deliberate strategy to expand opportunities for qualified small manufacturers. There is no evidence of preference for 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, indicating a focus on broad small business eligibility rather than targeted socioeconomic programs. Jami’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336413—Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing—reflecting deep expertise in aviation subsystems such as flight control components, avionics housings, and auxiliary power units. A secondary focus on NAICS 335999 underscores involvement in specialized electrical components for defense platforms. This technical specialization positions Jami as a key procurement professional in the aerospace manufacturing supply chain, ensuring the acquisition of mission-critical, high-integrity components for government aerospace systems.
