Jared Dunn

Jared Dunn serves as the primary contracting lead for FA2823 AFTC PZIO, a critical unit within the Department of the Air Force focused on advancing airborne and ground-based sensing, communication, and test instrumentation systems. In this role, he manages the acquisition of specialized hardware, software, and integration services essential to modernizing avionics test infrastructure, electronic warfare evaluation platforms, and signal intelligence systems. His responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle of contract execution—from requirement validation and market research to award and performance oversight—ensuring alignment with DoD technical standards and mission readiness objectives. Dunn maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors including TOM HAMMONDS ENTERPRISES, LLC, STREET LEGAL INDUSTRIES, INC, SPEEGLE CONSTRUCTION, INC, DETECT INC, and THE CONTROLS COMPANY, LLC. These partnerships reflect a focus on niche engineering, test equipment fabrication, and infrastructure support services tailored to high-precision aerospace testing environments. His procurement approach emphasizes technical capability over volume, favoring vendors with proven expertise in electromagnetic compatibility, sensor calibration, and ruggedized instrumentation. His contracting portfolio shows a strong preference for open, non-set-aside competitions at 62.5%, with equal distribution between 8(a) competed and total small business set-asides at 18.8% each, indicating a balanced commitment to socioeconomic programs without compromising technical rigor. Despite the agency’s aerospace mission, his NAICS focus reveals an unusual concentration in logging, solid waste collection, and plumbing contractors—suggesting a significant portion of acquisitions may relate to facility maintenance, site infrastructure, or logistics support for remote test ranges. Hardware manufacturing and HVAC contracting also feature prominently, underscoring his role in sustaining the physical and operational environments critical to advanced test and evaluation missions.
