Mark Wegryn

Mark Wegryn serves as a key procurement professional within the FA8800 Directorate of Contracting, part of the Department of the Air Force, where he is responsible for managing complex acquisitions of advanced professional and technical services essential to sustaining national defense space and networked systems. His work directly supports the agency’s mission to ensure the operational readiness of critical space-based surveillance, command and control, and cyber-enabled infrastructure through expert systems integration, sustainment engineering, and organizational design services. Wegryn specializes in non-severable, performance-based contracts requiring deep technical expertise and long-term mission alignment, often involving multi-year task orders under indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) vehicles to maintain continuous system availability and technological evolution. Wegryn collaborates with a broad spectrum of qualified contractors specializing in defense-grade technical services, including large prime integrators and niche technical firms with proven experience in space domain awareness, signal processing, and secure network modernization. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established industry partners with demonstrated capability in delivering high-assurance, mission-critical solutions under strict compliance frameworks such as NIST SP 800-53 and DoD IL5. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, his relationships are characterized by sustained engagement, performance-based incentives, and a focus on innovation in sustainment methodologies. Wegryn’s procurement strategy is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of acquisitions conducted under full and open competition. This reflects a deliberate emphasis on technical merit, mission-critical capability, and operational continuity over socioeconomic preferences, aligning with the high-stakes nature of space and cyber defense sustainment requirements. His primary focus is on NAICS 541990, encompassing all other professional, scientific, and technical services, with particular emphasis on systems engineering, technical analysis, and mission assurance services for space and networked defense architectures. He consistently procures specialized expertise in orbital mechanics, space situational awareness, secure data fusion, and legacy system modernization, ensuring the Air Force maintains technological superiority in contested domains.
