Shawnda Stevens

Shawnda Stevens serves as a key procurement professional within the FA8107 AFLCMC WWK unit of the Department of the Air Force, supporting the sustainment and modernization of the B-52H/J Stratofortress fleet. Her work centers on managing technical acquisitions for advanced avionics, engine upgrades, and integrated software systems critical to extending the operational life and combat readiness of legacy strategic bombers. She oversees the full lifecycle of contract actions—from requirements definition through award and administration—ensuring alignment with Air Force modernization priorities and technical specifications for mission-critical aerospace platforms. While specific contractor names are not publicly available, Stevens maintains a consistent engagement pattern with defense aerospace suppliers and software developers specializing in military-grade systems integration. Her procurement approach emphasizes technical rigor and performance-based outcomes, fostering long-term partnerships with vendors capable of delivering secure, certified aviation software and auxiliary equipment under stringent DoD compliance standards. She works closely with engineering teams to translate operational needs into precise statement of work requirements and evaluates proposals for technical feasibility, cybersecurity readiness, and lifecycle supportability. Stevens’ contracting portfolio is entirely open competition, with no set-asides designated—reflecting a mission-driven focus on technical capability over socioeconomic preferences. This 100% open competition pattern indicates a prioritization of mission-critical performance and system interoperability, where only vendors with proven expertise in high-assurance aerospace systems are considered. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 513210 (Software Publishers), where she acquires embedded flight software, mission planning systems, and digital technical documentation platforms, alongside NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing) for avionics hardware and cockpit integration components. Her expertise spans military aviation software architecture, DoD STIG compliance, and legacy platform modernization, making her a pivotal link between engineering requirements and mission-ready procurement outcomes.
