Her portfolio encompasses the procurement of specialized facility, medical, and operational support services essential to maintaining safe, functional, and technologically advanced environments for personnel and equipment. She manages a diverse range of contract actions under FAR Part 12 and Part 15, including task orders for maintenance, training, and infrastructure support, ensuring compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements while aligning acquisitions with strategic Air Force modernization goals. Brundige maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including PERRY MANAGEMENT CORP OF SOUTH DAKOTA, L.L.C, WILLIAM T BROOKS & ASSOCIATES INC, CITADEL FEDERAL SOLUTIONS LLC, NEXLEGACY LLC, and AJ COMMERCIAL SERVICES, INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven capabilities in facility operations, medical logistics, and technical services. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear statement of work development, and rigorous source selection processes to ensure mission-critical service delivery.

Her primary NAICS focus areas include commercial and industrial machinery repair (811310), ambulance services (621910), professional training (611430), research and development in physical sciences (541715), and lessors of real estate (531190), indicating expertise in procuring niche support services critical to installation sustainability. She consistently aligns acquisitions with Air Force priorities in medical readiness, facility resilience, and operational training infrastructure.
