Michelle Gunia serves as a procurement specialist within the Federal Aviation Administration’s 697DCK Regional Acquisitions Services, supporting the sustainment and modernization of critical aviation infrastructure including Air Traffic Control Towers and Flight Standard District Offices. She manages the acquisition of mission-critical services essential to maintaining operational readiness, safety, and regulatory compliance across FAA facilities. Her portfolio primarily encompasses facility support services, with a strong emphasis on janitorial and security systems procurement, ensuring that aviation infrastructure remains functional, secure, and compliant with federal standards. Gunia operates within the full spectrum of federal contracting procedures, leveraging FAR-based acquisition strategies to deliver timely, cost-effective solutions aligned with FAA’s operational priorities. She maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including STRUCTSURE PROJECTS INC, RESOLUTION MANAGEMENT CONSULTANTS INC., FORTIS NATIVE GROUP LLC, and MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, all of whom provide specialized facility services ranging from custodial operations to integrated security system installation and maintenance. These partnerships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven performance in federal facility support environments, characterized by repeat engagements and long-term service delivery reliability. Gunia’s contracting patterns reflect a balanced approach to socioeconomic goals, with approximately one-third of awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for small business concerns. The majority of her acquisitions are unrestricted, indicating flexibility to source from the broadest possible vendor base while still prioritizing small business participation where appropriate. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 561720 (Janitorial Services) and 561621 (Security Systems Services), reflecting deep expertise in facility operations support. She consistently procures cleaning, waste management, access control, surveillance, and alarm system services tailored to the high-security, high-traffic environments of FAA facilities, ensuring compliance with federal safety and operational mandates.
