Meredith Hawk

Meredith Hawk supports the FA8110 Aflcmc WBK-2 B-2 unit within the Department of the Air Force, playing a critical role in sustaining and modernizing the B-2 Spirit bomber fleet. Responsible for managing technical and engineering acquisitions, she ensures the continued operational readiness and nuclear compliance of this strategic platform through precise contract execution. Her portfolio centers on lifecycle support activities, including avionics maintenance, structural integrity assessments, and hardness surveillance enhancements. She interfaces with defense contractors and engineering firms to deliver mission-critical capabilities that align with Air Force Materiel Command’s modernization roadmap, prioritizing technical rigor and regulatory adherence in all procurement actions. Meredith cultivates partnerships with specialized aerospace suppliers and engineering service providers with proven expertise in legacy B-2 systems. While no specific contractor names are currently available, her procurement patterns indicate a preference for vendors with deep domain knowledge in military aircraft sustainment, particularly those experienced in classified avionics upgrades and non-destructive evaluation techniques. Her working relationships emphasize long-term technical collaboration over transactional sourcing, fostering vendor engagement through technical working groups and performance-based contract structures. Her contracting approach reflects a strong commitment to small business participation, with 25% of acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. While the majority of procurements remain open to all competitors, she actively encourages qualified small businesses—particularly those with aerospace engineering or manufacturing capabilities—to compete for opportunities. This balance supports both mission necessity and socioeconomic objectives without compromising technical standards. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336413 for other aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment, and 541330 for engineering services, reflecting her specialization in high-reliability aerospace components and technical support. She frequently procures precision-manufactured subsystems, test instrumentation, and specialized maintenance tools, demonstrating deep expertise in the technical domains of stealth platform sustainment and defense systems integration.
