Stevie Tabb

Stevie Tabb supports the Federal Aviation Administration’s 697DCK Regional Acquisitions Services in executing mission-critical procurement actions to sustain and modernize the nation’s air traffic control infrastructure. Responsible for managing acquisitions related to facility operations, maintenance, and construction support, Tabb ensures the operational readiness of Air Traffic Control Towers and associated aviation facilities through timely and compliant contracting. Their work centers on procuring specialized services that uphold safety, regulatory compliance, and long-term infrastructure resilience across the FAA’s regional network. Tabb maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors specializing in aviation facility support, including STRUCTSURE PROJECTS INC, RESOLUTION MANAGEMENT CONSULTANTS INC., FORTIS NATIVE GROUP LLC, BRICE TERRA LLC, and MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in civil construction, utility infrastructure, and environmental remediation. The contracting patterns indicate a reliance on firms capable of delivering complex, multi-disciplinary services under tight operational constraints, often requiring coordination with federal, state, and local regulatory bodies. A strong commitment to small business participation is evident in Tabb’s procurement approach, with 64.3% of awards designated for Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to prioritize small business involvement in critical infrastructure projects, aligning with federal socioeconomic goals while fostering a competitive, resilient vendor base. The consistent use of set-asides underscores a dedication to expanding opportunities for small, disadvantaged, and community-based contractors in the aviation support sector. The primary technical focus lies in NAICS 237130 (Power and Communication Line Construction) and 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), indicating deep expertise in utility systems, HVAC, and mission-critical building infrastructure. Additional activity in remediation services (562910) and commercial construction (236220) further demonstrates a comprehensive approach to maintaining FAA facilities under stringent aviation safety standards.
