Lynn Sleeth

Lynn Sleeth serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA2550 50 Cons Pkp unit of the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions for aerospace and space domain systems. Her portfolio centers on procuring advanced communications infrastructure, satellite telecommunications equipment, and precision electronic instrumentation essential to national defense operations. She manages full lifecycle contracting activities—from market research and solicitation development to award and contract administration—ensuring compliance with FAR and DoD acquisition regulations while aligning purchases with strategic modernization goals for space and ground-based defense systems. Lynn collaborates with a diverse set of contractors, including Colorado Department of Labor and Employment and Blue Skies Furniture LLC, reflecting a broad scope of procurement needs that extend beyond traditional defense suppliers. While her primary focus is on technical systems, her contracting patterns indicate engagement with non-traditional vendors for ancillary services and facility-related support, suggesting a flexible, mission-driven approach to vendor selection based on capability rather than industry pedigree alone. Her contracting strategy reflects a balanced commitment to socioeconomic objectives, with approximately half of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a strong emphasis on enabling small business participation. She does not routinely utilize specialized set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, but maintains consistent and equitable access for small businesses across her acquisition portfolio. Lynn’s technical focus is concentrated in NAICS 238210 (electrical and wiring installation), 517410 (satellite telecommunications), and 334220 (wireless communications equipment manufacturing), indicating deep expertise in space-based comms, RF systems, and embedded electronics. She also routinely procures environmental control systems and specialized accounting services to support operational readiness, underscoring her ability to manage complex, multidisciplinary requirements in support of Air Force space and cyber operations.
