Mary Twitty

Mary Twitty serves as Flight Lead, Services for FA4830 23 Cons Cc within the Department of the Air Force, where she leads the acquisition and management of mission-critical support services essential to airborne operational readiness. Her role encompasses the full lifecycle procurement of communications systems, aviation safety equipment, and full-mission training solutions, ensuring alignment with Air Force readiness objectives. Twitty interfaces with industry partners to deliver reliable, compliant, and technologically advanced services that sustain base infrastructure and operational capabilities across expeditionary and garrison environments. She maintains consistent contracting relationships with a select group of vendors including ARDMORE CONSULTING GROUP, INC, MACHINE TOOL MARKETING INC, GOVAGE, INC., DARK WATERS ENTERPRISING, LLC, and TESTFORCE USA, INC., many of which provide specialized technical support, logistics coordination, and training system integration. Twitty’s approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and outcome-driven service delivery, fostering long-term partnerships with vendors capable of meeting stringent military standards for reliability and security. Twitty demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with approximately two-thirds of her portfolio structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, and one-third competitively awarded to 8(a) certified firms. Her contracting patterns reflect a deliberate strategy to expand opportunities for small, disadvantaged businesses while ensuring technical capability and mission alignment. Notably, her primary NAICS focus areas—813110 (Religious Organizations) and 561730 (Landscaping Services)—reflect a unique and unexpected alignment with facility support and base sustainment services, including grounds maintenance, environmental compliance, and chaplaincy support infrastructure. This indicates a nuanced understanding of the full spectrum of services required to maintain operational bases, extending beyond traditional defense procurement domains into ancillary but vital support functions.
