LCDR David F. Moore

LCDR David F. Moore serves as Program Manager for the FA8823 Sustainment MCPNT SSC/PKL within the Department of the Air Force, where he oversees the lifecycle sustainment and modernization of critical aerospace and space-based defense systems. His responsibilities include planning, executing, and managing complex acquisition programs for guided missile systems, satellite communications infrastructure, and global positioning system components. As a key liaison between technical stakeholders and contracting offices, LCDR Moore ensures that procurement strategies align with operational readiness requirements and long-term force modernization goals, prioritizing reliability, interoperability, and mission-critical performance across classified and unclassified platforms. LCDR Moore collaborates with a diverse array of defense contractors specializing in aerospace engineering, signal processing, and space systems integration. While specific vendor names are not publicly disclosed, his procurement patterns indicate consistent engagement with Tier 1 defense primes and mid-tier systems integrators capable of delivering high-assurance hardware and software solutions under strict security and compliance protocols. His working relationships emphasize technical rigor, schedule discipline, and performance-based contracting, with a preference for vendors possessing ITAR/EAR compliance, ISO 9001 certification, and experience in Department of Defense sustainment environments. LCDR Moore’s acquisition portfolio reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of his awards issued under non-set-aside authorities. This indicates a strategic focus on maximizing technical capability and industrial base breadth rather than socioeconomic set-asides, aligning with the high-stakes, mission-critical nature of his programs. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in his award structure, he maintains compliance with all applicable federal regulations and may incorporate small business subcontracting through prime contractor performance plans. His primary technical domain centers on NAICS categories related to aerospace product and parts manufacturing, defense electronics, and satellite communications services. He procures advanced navigation payloads, secure data links, ground control systems, and ruggedized avionics, demonstrating deep expertise in space-based command and control architectures and the sustainment of legacy and next-generation space assets critical to national security.
