Keyanna MCNEIL-JOHNSON

Keyanna McNeil-Johnson serves as a primary procurement lead within the ASC Supplier Operations AE and AF Division of the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation, where she plays a critical role in sustaining and modernizing mission-critical aviation systems for U.S. military aircraft fleets. She manages the acquisition of high-reliability components essential to aircraft operational readiness, with a focus on avionics, electrical distribution systems, and airframe subsystems. Her responsibilities include end-to-end contract execution—from market research and solicitation development to award and performance monitoring—ensuring compliance with DoD acquisition regulations and technical specifications for aerospace-grade hardware. Her work directly supports the division’s mission to maintain fleet readiness through resilient, secure, and technologically advanced supply chains. McNeil-Johnson collaborates with a diverse base of industrial suppliers, including specialized manufacturers of communications equipment and current-carrying wiring devices. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages with firms capable of meeting stringent military standards such as MIL-SPEC, AS9100, and ITAR requirements. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established industrial base partners with proven track records in aerospace-grade component fabrication and quality control, fostering long-term vendor relationships grounded in technical proficiency and supply chain reliability. Her procurement activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of acquisitions conducted under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on accessing the broadest possible industrial capability to meet urgent operational needs, rather than targeting socioeconomic categories. While small business participation is not formally prioritized through set-asides, she remains committed to evaluating all qualified vendors based on technical merit, past performance, and production capacity. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334290 (Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing) and 335931 (Current-Carrying Wiring Device Manufacturing), encompassing avionics interfaces, flight control wiring harnesses, data bus components, and ruggedized electrical connectors. She possesses deep technical familiarity with military aviation systems, ensuring that all procured items meet rigorous environmental, electromagnetic, and safety performance criteria essential to flight-critical applications.
