Norleska Hannah

Norleska Hannah serves as a key procurement professional within the U.S. Transportation Command (USTransCom), supporting the agency’s global mobility mission through the acquisition of critical logistics and transportation services. Responsible for managing complex contract actions in expeditionary logistics, Hannah ensures the timely and efficient movement of military personnel and equipment across air, sea, land, and rail domains. Her work directly enables theater access and sustainment operations by securing essential port, terminal, and air cargo handling capabilities, aligning procurement decisions with strategic defense mobility priorities. She routinely handles sole-source and competitive acquisitions under FAR Part 13 and Part 15 procedures, with a focus on time-sensitive, mission-critical requirements. Hannah maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of specialized contractors, including UNCOMN LLC, PHOENIX AIR GROUP, INC., RAMPART AVIATION, LLC, FANCIULLI EGISTO S.R.L., and MOUNTAIN AVIATION, LLC. These partnerships reflect a reliance on experienced providers of marine cargo handling and nonscheduled air charter services, often operating in high-threat or austere environments. Her contracting approach prioritizes proven performance, operational readiness, and global reach, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in reliability and compliance with DoD mobility standards. Hannah’s procurement portfolio exhibits no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a mission-driven emphasis on rapid capability deployment over socioeconomic targeting, prioritizing operational urgency and contractor capacity over programmatic set-asides. While small business participation is not formally incentivized, vendors of all sizes are evaluated strictly on technical merit and mission alignment. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 488320 (Marine Cargo Handling), accounting for 83.3% of activity, and NAICS 481211 (Nonscheduled Chartered Passenger Air Transportation), at 16.7%. She specializes in procuring terminal operations, port unloading, aircraft charter services, and expeditionary logistics support, demonstrating deep expertise in global mobility infrastructure and contingency transportation systems.
