Michelet Audige

Michelet Audige serves as a key procurement professional within DLA Land at Aberdeen, supporting the Defense Logistics Agency’s mission to sustain and modernize land-based defense platforms through the acquisition of mission-critical electronic and electro-mechanical systems. Responsible for managing complex contracting actions, Audige specializes in sourcing advanced signal processing components, avionics, radio and data transmission equipment, and precision power and control systems essential for military command, control, and tactical operations. Their work directly enables operational readiness by ensuring timely delivery of high-reliability components that integrate into deployed defense platforms, with a focus on technical specifications requiring stringent MIL-STD compliance and lifecycle support. Audige maintains consistent contracting relationships with specialized manufacturers including Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, Carson Industries, Inc., and Creating Technology Solutions, LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with deep expertise in custom electronic component fabrication, embedded systems integration, and ruggedized electro-mechanical assemblies. The working relationship pattern emphasizes technical collaboration, early vendor engagement during requirements development, and performance-based contracting to ensure adherence to military-grade quality and delivery timelines. There is no set-aside preference in Audige’s procurement portfolio; all acquisitions are conducted as full and open competition. This reflects a strategic focus on technical capability and mission-critical performance over socioeconomic categorization, prioritizing vendor expertise and system interoperability above socioeconomic targeting. While small business participation is not mandated through set-asides, qualified small firms are regularly included as subcontractors within prime contractor teams. Audige’s primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 334419 (Other Electronic Component Manufacturing), with significant activity in NAICS 334610 (Magnetic and Optical Media) and NAICS 333310 (Commercial and Service Industry Machinery). This underscores expertise in procuring custom circuit boards, data storage modules, control panels, and specialized machinery used in field-deployable military systems, demonstrating a strong command of defense electronics supply chains and component-level technical requirements.
