Laura A. Holman

Laura Holman serves as a Contracting Officer responsible for managing complex acquisitions in support of aerospace and defense systems. She plays a critical role in ensuring timely, compliant, and cost-effective procurement of specialized aeronautical components and engineering services, aligning with national security and aviation modernization objectives. Her portfolio centers on high-precision manufacturing and technical engineering solutions, requiring deep familiarity with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) compliance. She routinely handles sole-source, competitive, and sealed-bid procurements for mission-critical hardware and technical support services. Laura maintains a broad network of industrial partners specializing in aircraft subsystems and avionics integration. While no single contractor dominates her award profile, she consistently engages manufacturers with proven technical capabilities in aerospace component design and systems integration. Her contracting approach emphasizes technical merit, past performance, and supply chain reliability, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in quality assurance and regulatory adherence. She prioritizes vendors with established track records in meeting stringent military and aviation certification standards. Laura’s procurement activity is entirely non-set-aside, reflecting a strategic focus on technical capability over socioeconomic categorization. She does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, instead prioritizing the most qualified offerors based on technical expertise and production capacity. This approach underscores a mission-driven commitment to performance outcomes, particularly in domains where specialized engineering and manufacturing precision are non-negotiable. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336413, encompassing the acquisition of auxiliary aircraft components and subsystems, with secondary emphasis on engineering services (NAICS 541330) and navigation/guidance systems manufacturing (NAICS 334511). She specializes in procuring flight-critical avionics, control systems, and support equipment for military and civil aviation platforms, demonstrating deep domain knowledge in aeronautical engineering and systems integration.
