Latoya Mitchell

Latoya P. Mitchell serves as a key procurement professional within the FA5205 35 Cons Pk unit of the Department of the Air Force, supporting mission-critical infrastructure readiness through the acquisition of communications systems, facility sustainment services, and auxiliary aircraft components. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts aligned with operational airfield and base support, ensuring timely delivery of technical services that maintain combat readiness across domestic and deployed locations. Her work spans the full acquisition lifecycle, from requirement validation and market research to contract award and performance monitoring, with a focus on mission-essential capabilities that enable seamless air operations. Mitchell maintains consistent working relationships with core contractors including LAVISH LIFE TECHNOLOGIES LLC and AMERICAN ENGINEERING CORPORATION, partnering with firms experienced in complex infrastructure maintenance, logistics support, and specialized communications systems integration. These vendor relationships reflect a preference for proven performers with demonstrated technical proficiency in military-grade environments, often involving long-term service agreements and performance-based contracting structures that emphasize reliability and rapid response. Her contracting approach prioritizes open competition, with 83.6% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions, while still maintaining a meaningful commitment to small business participation—14.6% of awards are designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, and 1.8% are reserved for service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses. This balanced strategy ensures access to innovation and capacity while upholding federal socioeconomic goals. Mitchell’s procurement focus centers on NAICS categories including 811310 for commercial and industrial machinery repair, 561790 for building services, and 238160 and 238220 for roofing and HVAC contracting, reflecting deep expertise in facility infrastructure sustainment. She also oversees 492110-related courier and express delivery services critical to supply chain continuity. Her technical domain expertise lies at the intersection of physical infrastructure resilience and mission-critical logistics, ensuring airfield operations remain uninterrupted through proactive, compliant, and performance-driven acquisitions.
