Jamie G Calcasola

Jamie G. Calcasola serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA4814 6 Cons Pk unit of the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurements that sustain mission-critical air base operations. Her work centers on acquiring services and supplies essential to personnel readiness, communications infrastructure, and facility support across deployed and garrisoned environments. She handles a diverse portfolio of contracts under FAR Part 12 and Part 13, with a strong emphasis on commercial item acquisitions and simplified procedures to ensure rapid response to operational needs. Calcasola plays a pivotal role in aligning procurement strategy with the agency’s priorities in secure IT systems, professional military education, and logistical sustainment. She maintains active relationships with a select group of contractors including SupplyCore LLC, CyberProTex, LLC, and Liberty Communications, Inc., partnering with firms that deliver specialized support in communications, cybersecurity, and facility services. Her contracting approach reflects a preference for established vendors with proven performance in defense-adjacent markets, while also integrating smaller, niche providers capable of responsive, mission-tailored solutions. Calcasola fosters collaborative, performance-based vendor relationships grounded in clear deliverables and compliance with defense acquisition standards. Calcasola demonstrates a pronounced commitment to small business participation, with 71.4% of her awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. She frequently utilizes service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) set-asides and prioritizes socioeconomic programs to expand opportunities for underrepresented contractors. Her contracting patterns reflect a deliberate effort to meet and exceed DoD small business goals while maintaining accountability and competition. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 711130 (musical groups and artists) for morale, welfare, and recreation programming, 423910 (sporting and recreational goods) for fitness and readiness equipment, and 611710 (educational support services) for professional military training. She specializes in acquiring non-traditional yet mission-enabling services that enhance quality of life and operational readiness across Air Force installations.
