She supports the acquisition of specialized instrumentation, communications systems, and laboratory-grade equipment critical to air superiority, weapons system integrity, and test and evaluation infrastructure. Her responsibilities include executing competitive procurement strategies, ensuring regulatory compliance with FAR Part 19, and facilitating small business participation across high-technical domains. Imhoff typically handles complex, non-commercial acquisitions requiring technical evaluation and market research for advanced scientific and engineering services. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identifiable in the data, Imhoff engages with a diverse pool of vendors including professional services firms, specialized manufacturers, and construction contractors capable of supporting mission-critical infrastructure. Her procurement approach emphasizes rigorous source selection, technical capability assessments, and performance-based contracting to ensure delivery of mission-ready systems.
