Shirley Breeze

Shirley Breeze serves as a procurement professional responsible for managing complex acquisitions within a defense and industrial support portfolio. Though her formal title and agency affiliation are not publicly designated, her contracting patterns reveal a central role in sourcing mission-critical equipment for national security and defense infrastructure. She routinely handles competitive procurements under FAR Part 15, with a focus on technical specifications for aerospace, ordnance, and industrial machinery systems. Her acquisitions are typically solicited via sealed bidding or negotiated contracts, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition standards while prioritizing operational readiness and supply chain resilience. Her contractor relationships span a diverse base of manufacturers and subsystem integrators, particularly those capable of meeting stringent military-grade performance and certification requirements. While no single vendor dominates her award profile, she consistently engages with Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers possessing ISO 9001, AS9100, and ITAR compliance credentials. Her procurement approach emphasizes technical capability over price alone, fostering long-term partnerships with firms that demonstrate robust quality control, export control adherence, and responsive logistics support. Shirley’s set-aside preferences reflect a strong orientation toward open competition, with 96% of her awards issued as unrestricted solicitations. Nevertheless, she actively supports small business participation, with approximately 4% of her portfolio allocated to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This indicates a measured, compliance-driven approach to socioeconomic contracting—favoring broad competition while still creating pathways for qualified small manufacturers to compete on equal footing. Her primary industry focus lies in NAICS 336413 (other aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment), 333924 (industrial truck and material handling machinery), and 332994 (small arms and ordnance accessories), each representing 12% of her procurement activity. Additional emphasis on small arms ammunition (332992) and electronic computer manufacturing (334111) underscores her expertise in procuring integrated defense systems, from munitions to embedded computing platforms, requiring precision engineering and ruggedized design standards.
