Kevin Daigle

Kevin Daigle serves as a key procurement professional within the FA2834 AFLCMC WV organization under the Department of the Air Force, where he supports the acquisition of advanced aviation systems and technical services critical to sustaining and modernizing Air Force flight operations. His responsibilities encompass managing complex contracts for aerospace technology, flight training systems, and mission-critical software solutions that enhance pilot readiness and operational effectiveness. He routinely handles sole-source and competitive acquisitions for high-technology platforms, focusing on integration of avionics, sensor systems, and data infrastructure to support next-generation aircraft modernization initiatives. Daigle maintains a consistent working relationship with BETTER DIRECT, LLC, a primary contractor delivering specialized technical services across multiple domains including systems integration and custom software development. His procurement approach favors established vendors with proven capabilities in aerospace engineering and defense-grade IT solutions, reflecting a preference for contractors with deep domain expertise and proven performance on prior Air Force programs. His contracting patterns indicate a reliance on trusted partners capable of meeting stringent security, certification, and rapid deployment requirements. Daigle’s procurement portfolio exhibits no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on technical merit and mission-critical capability over socioeconomic categorization, prioritizing performance, innovation, and readiness over small business set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334511 for aeronautical navigation and guidance systems, 336413 for aircraft auxiliary equipment, 541511 for custom computer programming, 334413 for semiconductor manufacturing, and 611512 for flight training services. He consistently acquires high-integrity hardware, embedded systems, and simulation-based training platforms that directly support Air Force aviation readiness and next-generation pilot training ecosystems.
