LaLinda Harrison

LaLinda Harrison serves as a key procurement lead within the FA2330 Arspc Mgnt Systms Aflcmc/hba, a critical unit under the Department of the Air Force responsible for acquiring and sustaining advanced aeronautical and navigation systems. She manages the full lifecycle of contracts for mission-critical aviation infrastructure, including radar surveillance, instrument landing systems, distance measuring equipment, and automated weather observation systems. Her work directly supports the modernization and cybersecurity hardening of airfield navigation assets used by both military and allied civilian aviation operators, ensuring global air traffic safety and operational readiness. Her primary contractor relationship is with WINDBORNE SYSTEMS INC, a trusted systems integrator and technology provider specializing in airborne and ground-based navigation instrumentation. Harrison consistently engages this vendor for complex, high-integrity system upgrades and sustainment efforts, reflecting a long-standing, performance-driven partnership built on technical reliability and compliance with military aviation standards. She rarely engages in competitive bidding for these specialized capabilities, indicating a preference for established, qualified vendors with proven track records in defense-critical avionics. Harrison’s procurement portfolio shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a mission-driven focus on technical capability and system interoperability over socioeconomic criteria, prioritizing performance, security, and readiness above all other factors in this highly specialized domain. Her acquisitions are exclusively classified under NAICS 334511, focusing on the design, integration, and sustainment of search, detection, navigation, and guidance systems for aeronautical applications. She procures high-reliability hardware and software systems that meet DO-178C, MIL-STD-810, and RTCA DO-254 standards, demonstrating deep expertise in aviation electronics, sensor fusion, and certified avionics development. Her work ensures the continued operational integrity of precision approach and en route navigation networks essential to global air operations.
