Miranda Demers

Miranda Demers serves as a key procurement lead within the FA3022 14 Cons Lgca unit of the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing acquisition strategies that sustain and modernize critical infrastructure across Air Force installations. Her work centers on ensuring mission-ready facilities through the execution of construction, maintenance, and specialized service contracts aligned with life-safety, HVAC, and facility resilience priorities. She handles a diverse portfolio of fixed-price and cost-reimbursement contracts under FAR Part 36 and Part 8, with a strong emphasis on compliance with DoD and Air Force installation standards. Her acquisitions directly support operational readiness by maintaining and upgrading base-wide systems essential to daily mission execution. Demers maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including DOMINGUEZ & PERSONS, LLC, WEST BROTHERS CONSTRUCTION INC, AIR CONTROL ENGINEERING INC, WESTNET, LLC, and THE STATION INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced small business vendors with proven track records in facility maintenance, environmental systems, and specialized construction services. Her contracting approach emphasizes long-term vendor collaboration, performance-based outcomes, and rigorous compliance with contract deliverables, fostering reliable, repeat engagement with firms capable of delivering high-quality, mission-critical support under tight operational timelines. A defining feature of Demers’ procurement strategy is her strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly 79% of her awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. An additional 10.5% are reserved for women-owned small businesses, reflecting a deliberate effort to broaden socioeconomic opportunity within the defense supply chain. Her contracting patterns consistently prioritize small business eligibility, minimizing no-set-aside awards and aligning with DoD’s broader goals for equitable access to federal contracting opportunities. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 813110 (Religious Organizations) and 315990 (Apparel Accessories Manufacturing), which, while atypical for a military construction unit, likely reflect niche support services or specialized facility adaptations tied to morale, welfare, and recreation programs. She also regularly procures commercial and institutional construction (236220) and specialty trade contracting (238990), demonstrating technical expertise in facility infrastructure modernization and maintenance services critical to Air Force base operations.
