Michelle Shoshone serves as a key procurement lead within the FA5000 673 Cons Lgc under the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing complex acquisitions that sustain critical military infrastructure and operational readiness. She oversees the procurement of construction services, specialized equipment, and facility systems essential to maintaining Air Force installations, with a focus on commercial and institutional building construction, environmental remediation, and electrotherapeutic and analytical instrumentation. Her work ensures mission-critical facilities remain compliant, functional, and resilient through strategic contracting aligned with federal acquisition regulations and defense infrastructure priorities. Shoshone maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including GIGABITER LLC, VINDICATOR TECHNOLOGIES, INC., YUKON EQUIPMENT, INC., and GLOBAL FINISHING SOLUTIONS LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for specialized vendors capable of delivering high-precision electrical components, heavy construction machinery, industrial finishing systems, and facility-integrated equipment. Her contracting approach emphasizes reliability, technical compliance, and performance-based outcomes, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in clear deliverables and quality assurance protocols. A strong advocate for socioeconomic opportunity, Shoshone prioritizes small business participation, with 70% of her acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. An additional 10% are reserved for service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses and another 10% for women-owned small businesses, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to diversifying the supplier base. Her contracting patterns reflect a disciplined alignment with federal small business goals while maintaining rigorous standards for technical capability and delivery. Her primary NAICS focus areas include 335999 for miscellaneous electrical equipment, 333120 for construction machinery, 334516 for analytical laboratory instruments, and 238330 and 236220 for flooring and commercial/institutional construction.
