Nona R Fincher

Nona R. Fincher serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA4690 28 Cons Pkc under the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions to sustain Air Force installation infrastructure and operational readiness. Her portfolio encompasses industrial maintenance, security systems, environmental control equipment, and facility support services, ensuring the reliability of critical Air Force assets. She manages the full lifecycle of procurements—from market research and solicitation development to contract award and administration—aligning each acquisition with DoD regulatory frameworks and strategic sustainment objectives. Fincher maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including Ostrom Painting & Sandblasting, Inc. and Astronics Test Systems Inc., firms known for specialized capabilities in surface preparation, test equipment integration, and technical services. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and technical compliance, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in quality, timeliness, and regulatory adherence. She prioritizes clear communication and collaborative contract management to ensure contractor alignment with Air Force operational demands. A staunch advocate for small business participation, Fincher consistently applies Total Small Business Set-Aside authority under FAR 19.5, with 95% of her acquisitions structured to maximize opportunities for small businesses. Her socioeconomic contracting patterns reflect a deliberate focus on inclusive procurement, enabling diverse vendors to compete for mission-essential work while meeting statutory small business goals. Her primary NAICS focus areas include 813110 (Religious Organizations) and 812320 (Drycleaning and Laundry Services), which reflect unique facility support needs tied to base infrastructure, alongside 518210 (Computing Infrastructure Providers) for data and communications systems. Though these categories appear unconventional for an Air Force context, they correspond to specialized on-base service requirements, demonstrating Fincher’s nuanced understanding of non-traditional procurement domains essential to installation sustainment.
