Roxanna Lewis

Roxanna Lewis serves as a key procurement professional within DLA Aviation, supporting the Defense Logistics Agency’s mission to ensure the operational readiness of U.S. military aviation systems. She manages the acquisition of specialized chemical products and formulations critical to aircraft maintenance, corrosion control, lubrication, and subsystem sustainment. Her work directly enables the reliability and longevity of military aircraft engines, avionics, and structural components by securing high-purity, mission-critical chemical preparations that meet stringent military specifications. She operates within a high-stakes logistics environment where technical obsolescence management and supply chain continuity are paramount. Lewis maintains a broad network of industrial suppliers specializing in advanced chemical manufacturing, including firms capable of producing military-grade compounds under MIL-SPEC and ASTM standards. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she routinely engages with manufacturers possessing certified quality systems, hazardous material handling expertise, and defense supply chain credentials. Her contracting approach emphasizes technical compliance, traceability, and just-in-time delivery to support forward-deployed aviation units. Her procurement activity is exclusively classified under the “No Set-Aside” category, indicating a focus on full and open competition. This reflects a strategic preference for sourcing from the most technically qualified vendors regardless of socioeconomic status, prioritizing performance, reliability, and regulatory adherence over socioeconomic preferences. Her primary industry focus is NAICS 325998—All Other Miscellaneous Chemical Product and Preparation Manufacturing—encompassing specialty formulations for aircraft de-icing, hydraulic fluid additives, sealants, and anti-corrosion treatments. She possesses deep expertise in procuring chemically complex, low-volume, high-reliability products that support the sustainment of legacy and next-generation military aircraft systems, ensuring mission readiness through precise material specification and supply chain resilience.
