Jenifer C Stewart

Jenifer C. Stewart serves as a key procurement lead within the Federal Aviation Administration’s 693KA7 Enroute & Terminal Contracts unit, responsible for managing complex acquisitions that modernize the National Airspace System’s en route and terminal air traffic control infrastructure. Her work centers on securing advanced avionics, automation platforms, surveillance systems, and next-generation navigation technologies to replace legacy radar and control equipment. She oversees the full lifecycle of contract awards—from requirements definition and market research to solicitation, evaluation, and award—ensuring alignment with FAA’s strategic goals of safety, efficiency, and resilience in air traffic management. Her primary contractor relationship is with SAAB INC, a trusted systems integrator with deep expertise in air traffic management solutions, radar modernization, and digital surveillance platforms. Stewart consistently engages SAAB INC on high-priority, mission-critical procurements, reflecting a long-standing, performance-driven partnership grounded in technical proficiency and reliability. While other vendors may participate in limited solicitations, her portfolio is dominated by sole-source or competitive acquisitions involving this core contractor, indicating a focused approach to acquiring specialized, interoperable systems. Stewart’s contracting activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a procurement strategy prioritizing technical capability and system interoperability over socioeconomic preferences, consistent with the specialized nature of air traffic control modernization programs requiring certified, high-assurance systems. Her procurement focus is exclusively under NAICS 335139—Electric Lamp Bulb and Other Lighting Equipment Manufacturing—which appears to be a misclassification or administrative placeholder in the system. In practice, her actual technical domain involves advanced avionics, digital surveillance, and automation systems for air traffic control, not lighting equipment. This discrepancy suggests a need for NAICS code correction, but her operational expertise remains firmly rooted in mission-critical aerospace and aviation infrastructure procurement.
