Rebecca D. Huffstutter

Rebecca D. Huffstutter serves as a Contracting Officer with the FA8823 Sustainment MCPNT SSC/PKL under the Department of the Air Force, where she manages the acquisition lifecycle for critical aerospace and space-based sustainment programs. Her responsibilities include planning, soliciting, awarding, and administering contracts for systems essential to national defense, including guided missile platforms, satellite communications infrastructure, and global positioning system components. She plays a pivotal role in ensuring operational readiness through timely and compliant procurement of technical services and maintenance support, aligning acquisitions with Air Force modernization priorities and defense logistics requirements. While specific contractor relationships are not currently available in the procurement record, Ms. Huffstutter engages with a broad spectrum of defense industrial base vendors, including prime contractors and specialized subcontractors capable of delivering complex engineering, logistics, and systems integration services for space and missile sustainment. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, risk mitigation, and adherence to Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) requirements, fostering long-term partnerships with firms possessing the technical expertise to support mission-critical platforms. Ms. Huffstutter’s procurement portfolio reflects a 100% preference for non-set-aside acquisitions, indicating a focus on full and open competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. This pattern suggests an operational imperative to source from the broadest possible pool of qualified vendors with proven capability in high-stakes aerospace systems sustainment. Her primary procurement activity is concentrated under NAICS 562111 (Solid Waste Collection), which appears to be a data anomaly or misclassification, as it is inconsistent with the agency’s mission. Given the context of FA8823’s focus on aerospace sustainment, her actual technical domain likely involves NAICS categories such as 541330 (Engineering Services), 541512 (Computer Systems Design), or 336412 (Missile and Space Vehicle Propulsion Unit Manufacturing), though current records do not reflect this alignment. Further validation of classification accuracy is recommended to ensure accurate market analysis and strategic sourcing.
