Jennie L. Frantum serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA3016 502 Cons Cl under the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions that sustain Air Force installation readiness. She manages the full lifecycle of contracts for specialized facility, medical, and communications services, ensuring compliance with FAR and agency-specific procurement policies. Her work directly supports the modernization and operational resilience of Air Force infrastructure by securing technologically advanced solutions that maintain safe, functional, and mission-ready environments for personnel and equipment. Frantum maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including PERRY MANAGEMENT CORP OF SOUTH DAKOTA, L.L.C, WILLIAM T BROOKS & ASSOCIATES INC, CITADEL FEDERAL SOLUTIONS LLC, NEXLEGACY LLC, and AJ COMMERCIAL SERVICES, INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven capabilities in facility maintenance, medical support systems, and technical services. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear statement of work development, and rigorous source selection criteria to ensure high-quality deliverables aligned with Air Force standards.

Her socioeconomic contracting pattern demonstrates a balanced commitment to broad market competition while intentionally creating opportunities for small businesses to contribute to mission-critical infrastructure sustainment. Her primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 511210 (Software Publishers), reflecting a strong emphasis on digital systems and communications software for Air Force operations. She also regularly procures institutional furniture (337127), electrical installation services (238210), and specialized instructional services (611699), demonstrating technical expertise across facility modernization, logistics support, and workforce training domains.
