Jani Faris

Jane A. Faris serves as a Contracting Officer within the FA5000 673 Cons Lgc under the Department of the Air Force, where she manages a diverse portfolio of procurement actions critical to sustaining Air Force infrastructure and operational readiness. Her responsibilities include soliciting, awarding, and administering contracts for facility construction, environmental remediation, medical and electrotherapeutic equipment, and specialized facility services. She plays a pivotal role in ensuring mission-critical installations remain functional and compliant with federal standards, leveraging full and open competition alongside targeted set-asides to meet statutory and strategic objectives. Faris maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including GIGABITER LLC, VINDICATOR TECHNOLOGIES, INC., YUKON EQUIPMENT, INC., and GLOBAL FINISHING SOLUTIONS LLC, who provide technical expertise in facility modernization, equipment integration, and service delivery. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and long-term vendor collaboration, fostering reliable partnerships with firms capable of delivering complex, mission-aligned solutions under stringent regulatory frameworks. Her procurement strategy reflects a balanced commitment to socioeconomic goals, with approximately 25% of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 and 8.3% reserved for service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses. While the majority of her acquisitions remain open to all competitors, she actively prioritizes small business participation where market conditions and capability align, reinforcing the Air Force’s broader goals for inclusive economic opportunity. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 624190 (Other Individual and Family Services), reflecting a significant demand for support services tied to installation welfare and readiness, followed by surveying and mapping services (541370), and computer facilities management (541513). She routinely manages acquisitions involving mobile food services, geospatial data collection, and IT infrastructure support, demonstrating deep familiarity with the intersection of facility operations and mission-enabling services in austere environments.
