Jennifer L. Didgeon

Jennifer L. Didgeon serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA4819 325 Cons Pkp, a unit of the Department of the Air Force responsible for sustaining critical aerospace infrastructure and mission-critical facility systems. She manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for construction, maintenance, and modernization projects essential to Air Force installation readiness. Her portfolio includes complex acquisitions for specialized aviation support systems, facility resilience upgrades, and technical equipment procurement, ensuring compliance with FAR, DFARS, and Air Force-specific directives. Didgeon plays a pivotal role in aligning contracting strategies with the agency’s mission to maintain operational continuity through robust, future-ready infrastructure. While specific contractor relationships are not currently available in the dataset, Didgeon routinely engages with a diverse range of vendors, including general contractors, engineering firms, and specialized suppliers of aerospace and facility systems. Her working relationships emphasize performance-based contracting, technical evaluation, and post-award oversight to ensure deliverables meet stringent military standards for safety, durability, and interoperability. She collaborates closely with technical representatives and project managers to translate operational requirements into enforceable contract statements of work. Didgeon demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 40% of her acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. While no 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB preferences are currently dominant, her consistent use of small business set-asides reflects a deliberate strategy to foster competition and expand the defense industrial base. She actively encourages small business eligibility and compliance, ensuring socioeconomic goals are integrated into solicitation planning. Her primary procurement focus centers on NAICS codes including 713950 (Bowling Centers), 532412 (Construction Equipment Rental), 333111 (Farm Machinery Manufacturing), 621999 (Miscellaneous Ambulatory Health Services), and 332439 (Other Metal Container Manufacturing). These reflect an unusual but strategically intentional blend of facility support, logistics, and non-traditional contracting vehicles used to fulfill unique infrastructure and sustainment needs across Air Force installations.
