Sara Chesser

Sara M. Chesser serves as a key procurement professional within the FA5205 35 Cons Pk unit of the Department of the Air Force, supporting mission-critical infrastructure and operational readiness through the acquisition of communications systems, logistics support, and facility sustainment services. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on radio and wireless communication equipment, auxiliary aircraft components, and maintenance services essential to both deployed and domestic airfield operations. Her role ensures timely delivery of technical solutions that uphold Air Force readiness standards, aligning acquisitions with strategic modernization goals and lifecycle management requirements. Chesser maintains a primary contracting relationship with LAVISH LIFE TECHNOLOGIES LLC, a vendor engaged across multiple procurement actions for specialized equipment and technical services. Her working pattern reflects a preference for established, non-set-aside partnerships, indicating a focus on technical capability, reliability, and rapid response over socioeconomic classification preferences. This consistent engagement suggests a track record of performance-based vendor selection grounded in operational need rather than socioeconomic targeting. Her contracting activity shows no use of set-aside programs—100% of awards are competed without restriction under full and open competition. This reflects a procurement strategy prioritizing technical merit, mission urgency, and vendor capacity over socioeconomic objectives, aligning with the unit’s emphasis on rapid deployment and mission-critical delivery. Chesser’s procurement focus centers on NAICS categories including 621330 and 621399 (mental and miscellaneous health practitioner offices), 424690 (chemical and allied products wholesale), and 423430/423490 (computer equipment and professional supplies wholesale). While these classifications appear atypical for an Air Force installation, they likely reflect indirect procurement of specialized components, diagnostic tools, or technical consumables supporting communications and facility maintenance systems. Her expertise lies in navigating complex supply chains to source mission-enabling goods, often requiring niche technical specifications and regulatory compliance in defense-critical environments.
