Mary Hallmon

Mary Hallmon serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA4417 1 Socons under the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in acquiring mission-critical infrastructure and communications systems that sustain and modernize airpower capabilities. She manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for defense-enabling construction and technical systems, including radio and wireless communications equipment, aeronautical navigation infrastructure, and integrated base defense technologies. Her work directly supports operational resilience by ensuring timely delivery of secure, high-performance systems aligned with Air Force strategic priorities. Hallmon specializes in complex, multi-year contracts requiring stringent compliance with defense acquisition regulations and technical specifications. Hallmon maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of prime contractors including AANTILIA LLC, MARRERO, COUVILLON & ASSOCIATES, L.L.C., MATTHES PARKER LLC, L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED, and WALCO ENTERPRISES INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced vendors with proven expertise in defense-related construction and communications infrastructure. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous oversight, and collaborative contract administration to ensure technical compliance and mission readiness. A strong advocate for socioeconomic diversity in defense contracting, Hallmon consistently prioritizes small business participation, with nearly two-thirds of her awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. She also frequently utilizes HUBZone set-asides, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to directing opportunities toward businesses located in economically distressed areas. Her contracting patterns reflect a deliberate alignment with federal goals to broaden the defense industrial base through inclusive procurement. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction), and 237110 (Water and Sewer Line and Related Structures Construction), reflecting her role in building and sustaining the physical and utility infrastructure underpinning Air Force installations. She specializes in procuring integrated systems that combine civil works with secure communications architecture, requiring deep technical understanding of both construction standards and defense operational requirements.
