Keturah Stroy

Keturah Stroy serves as a key procurement professional within the Federal Aviation Administration’s 693KA7 Enroute & Terminal Contracts unit, where she supports the modernization and sustainment of the National Airspace System’s critical air traffic control infrastructure. Her responsibilities include managing complex acquisitions for next-generation avionics, automation platforms, and surveillance systems that replace legacy radar and control technologies. She plays a central role in executing strategic contracting initiatives aligned with the FAA’s mission to enhance airspace safety, efficiency, and resilience through technological innovation, focusing on high-stakes, mission-critical systems that ensure seamless en route and terminal operations. Stroy maintains a consistent working relationship with SAAB INC, a primary contractor for advanced air traffic management systems and surveillance technology. Her procurement approach emphasizes long-term, performance-based partnerships with vendors capable of delivering integrated, secure, and scalable solutions for air traffic control environments. She engages primarily with established defense and aerospace technology providers with proven expertise in mission-critical systems integration, favoring contractors with deep domain knowledge in aviation infrastructure modernization. Stroy’s contracting portfolio reflects a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of awards issued under no set-aside categories. This underscores a strategic focus on technical capability and system interoperability over socioeconomic classifications, prioritizing mission readiness and performance over targeted small business set-asides. While small business participation is not formally incentivized in her portfolio, her acquisitions remain accessible to all qualified vendors capable of meeting stringent FAA technical and security requirements. Her procurement focus centers on NAICS 335129 (Other Electrical Equipment and Component Manufacturing) and 518210 (Computing Infrastructure Providers), reflecting her specialization in procuring hardware for radar and surveillance systems alongside cloud-enabled data processing, network hosting, and cybersecurity services for air traffic control platforms. She routinely acquires embedded systems, real-time data infrastructure, and mission-critical software solutions that support the FAA’s transition to NextGen technologies.
