Shane M Griffiths

Shane M. Griffiths serves as a Contracting Specialist within the FA2550 50 Cons Pkp unit of the Department of the Air Force, where he plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions for aerospace and space domain systems. His portfolio encompasses the procurement of advanced communications infrastructure, precision electronic test instrumentation, and ground-based support systems essential to national defense operations. Griffiths specializes in managing full lifecycle contracts under FAR Part 15, with a focus on complex technical requirements for satellite telecommunications, radio frequency systems, and mission-critical instrumentation. He ensures alignment with Air Force modernization priorities by leveraging agile contracting methods and risk-mitigated acquisition strategies to deliver capabilities on accelerated timelines. Griffiths maintains strategic relationships with a diverse array of vendors, including the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment and Blue Skies Furniture LLC, reflecting a broad-based approach to sourcing both specialized technical services and non-traditional support solutions. While these entities may appear unconventional in a defense context, their inclusion underscores his adaptive contracting philosophy—prioritizing capability delivery over traditional industry classifications. His working relationships are characterized by collaborative engagement, clear performance metrics, and a strong emphasis on vendor compliance with federal acquisition regulations. A staunch advocate for socioeconomic opportunity, Griffiths consistently applies Total Small Business Set-Asides at 75% and HUBZone Set-Asides at 25%, actively cultivating partnerships with certified small disadvantaged and HUBZone-qualified firms. His contracting patterns reflect a deliberate effort to expand the defense industrial base by integrating underrepresented small businesses into high-impact space and communications programs. His primary NAICS focus spans Truck Trailer Manufacturing (336212), Computer and Peripheral Equipment Wholesaling (423430), and Flooring Contractors (238330), indicating a unique blend of logistics, IT hardware, and facility support acquisitions. This diversified technical scope reveals his ability to manage non-traditional defense procurements that enable operational readiness across both field and garrison environments.
