Jayme P Skinner

Jayme P. Skinner serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of defense-related acquisition programs, with a primary focus on aerospace components and propulsion systems. In this role, Skinner ensures compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) standards while executing competitive solicitations, evaluating technical proposals, and administering performance-based contracts. Their work directly supports the agency’s mission to secure mission-critical aviation systems by leveraging sound contracting practices, risk mitigation strategies, and rigorous source selection procedures. Skinner typically handles complex, high-technical-demand procurements involving aircraft subsystems, avionics integration, and engine component manufacturing. While no specific contractor relationships are identifiable in the available data, Skinner’s procurement patterns suggest consistent engagement with Tier 1 and Tier 2 aerospace manufacturers, including firms specializing in precision machining, composite component fabrication, and flight-critical system assembly. Their contracting approach emphasizes vendor qualification, supply chain resilience, and technical capability verification, fostering long-term partnerships with suppliers capable of meeting stringent military specifications such as AS9100 and MIL-STD standards. Skinner’s contracting portfolio reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 95.7% of awards issued under non-set-aside conditions, indicating a focus on maximizing competition and value through broad market engagement. The remaining 4.3% of awards are structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a measured but intentional commitment to small business participation without compromising mission requirements or technical performance. The specialist’s technical domain is concentrated in NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing) and 336412 (Aircraft Engine and Engine Parts Manufacturing), reflecting deep expertise in procuring flight control systems, fuel delivery components, turbine blades, and auxiliary power units. Their work requires precise understanding of aerospace engineering standards, certification requirements, and supply chain traceability, positioning them as a key steward of national defense aviation readiness.
