Justin Raleigh

Justin Raleigh serves as the primary contracting lead for the FA8206 AFSC PZACA (ICBM) unit within the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing mission-critical acquisitions that sustain and modernize the U.S. intercontinental ballistic missile deterrent force. He oversees the procurement of advanced aerospace components, precision electronic systems, and mission-critical instrumentation essential to the Minuteman III life-extension program and nuclear command and control infrastructure. His portfolio emphasizes technical rigor, supply chain resilience, and compliance with defense acquisition regulations, ensuring the reliability and longevity of systems critical to national security. Raleigh maintains consistent contracting relationships with specialized vendors including Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC and Comark, LLC, both of which provide high-reliability electronic components and precision-engineered subsystems for ICBM platforms. His procurement approach prioritizes long-term vendor partnerships with firms possessing deep expertise in ruggedized avionics, radiation-tolerant circuitry, and aerospace-grade manufacturing. These collaborations are characterized by technical alignment, rigorous quality assurance protocols, and sustained engagement across multiple contract vehicles to support continuous system upgrades. A strong advocate for small business participation, Raleigh consistently structures acquisitions with a 53.9% total small business set-aside rate, reflecting a deliberate strategy to leverage the innovation and agility of small manufacturers. His contracting patterns frequently incorporate FAR 19.5 set-asides, favoring small businesses capable of delivering specialized aerospace and electronic components under stringent defense standards, while maintaining compliance with socioeconomic program requirements. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing) and 334419 (Other Electronic Component Manufacturing), with additional emphasis on machine shops and instrumentation for industrial process control. He procures mission-critical subsystems including guidance electronics, sensor interfaces, and ruggedized control modules, demonstrating deep technical expertise in aerospace-grade manufacturing and nuclear-certified supply chains.
