Matthew W. Moore

Matthew W. Moore serves as a key procurement professional within the FA4887 56th Contracting Squadron, a unit of the Department of the Air Force responsible for sustaining critical airfield infrastructure and mission-critical operational assets. He manages a diverse portfolio of service and supply contracts focused on industrial maintenance, aviation component manufacturing, and facility operations, ensuring the readiness and reliability of Air Force installations. His acquisitions span construction support, specialized equipment procurement, and technical services essential to maintaining flightline and hangar operations, aligning directly with the squadron’s mission to sustain Air Force combat capability through reliable logistics and infrastructure support. Moore maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of prime contractors, including ARKOSE GROUP LLC, SILVER NATIONAL CORP., BLAZING AVIATION LLC, and MACH 2 PRODUCTIONS INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for specialized vendors capable of delivering niche industrial services, aviation maintenance solutions, and customized manufacturing support. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and long-term vendor reliability, often re-engaging contractors with proven track records in complex, time-sensitive environments. A defining feature of Moore’s procurement strategy is his strong commitment to small business participation, with 83.9% of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate effort to foster economic opportunity and leverage the agility of small firms in delivering tailored solutions. While no other socioeconomic set-asides dominate, the consistent use of small business set-asides underscores a structured approach to building a resilient, diverse supplier base aligned with Air Force resilience goals. His procurement focus is heavily concentrated in NAICS 813110 (Religious Organizations), which appears to reflect unique facility or support service requirements, alongside niche manufacturing in 337215 (showcase and locker manufacturing) and travel services under 561510. These patterns suggest specialized logistical, administrative, or installation-specific needs, indicating expertise in procuring non-traditional but mission-critical services that support the operational ecosystem of Air Force bases.
