Nixie A. Mistri

Nixie A. Mistri serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA4427 60 Cons Lgc unit of the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical procurements that sustain operational readiness. Her portfolio centers on the acquisition of specialized electromedical and electrotherapeutic equipment, surgical supplies, analytical laboratory systems, and demonstration-grade technical hardware essential to air force medical support and public engagement initiatives. She manages the full lifecycle of contract actions—from requirements validation and market research to solicitation, evaluation, and award—ensuring compliance with FAR, DFARS, and Air Force-specific acquisition policies while aligning procurements with strategic readiness objectives. Mistri maintains established working relationships with key vendors including CW3RET ENTERPRISE LLC and CALIFORNIA INDUSTRIAL FACILITIES RESOURCES, INC., who consistently deliver high-precision medical and technical systems under performance-based contracts. Her procurement approach emphasizes vendor reliability, technical compliance, and timely delivery, fostering long-term partnerships with contractors capable of meeting stringent military specifications for equipment used in training and field operations. Her contracting patterns reflect a strong emphasis on small business participation, with nearly 40% of awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, and an additional 4.3% reserved for 8(a) competed acquisitions. While the majority of her actions remain open to all competitors, her consistent use of socioeconomic set-asides underscores a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for small, disadvantaged, and veteran-owned firms within the defense medical supply chain. Mistri’s primary NAICS focus lies in 334510 (Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic Apparatus Manufacturing), reflecting her deep expertise in procuring diagnostic, therapeutic, and monitoring devices for clinical and field use. She also manages acquisitions under related categories including 314110 and 424720, indicating a diversified but mission-aligned portfolio that supports both medical infrastructure and ancillary logistics requirements critical to Air Force operations.
