Tarik A. Booze

Tarik A. Booze serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA4801 49 Cons Pk unit of the Department of the Air Force, where he plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions that sustain aerospace readiness and installation infrastructure. His responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle management of contracts for advanced communications, electronic warfare systems, avionics maintenance, and specialized instrumentation essential to Air Force operational capabilities. Booze specializes in complex, technical procurements requiring stringent compliance with federal acquisition regulations and defense-specific standards, ensuring timely delivery of mission-enabling goods and services to support airfield operations and base sustainment. He maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of prime contractors, including UNICO GOVERNMENT SOLUTIONS, LLC, FSR CONSULTING LLC, and CERTIFIED STAINLESS SERVICE INC., among others. These partnerships are characterized by long-term collaboration on specialized technical services and niche supply chain solutions, particularly in instrumentation calibration, stainless-steel fabrication, and mission-critical support systems. Booze fosters transparent, performance-driven vendor relationships, emphasizing quality assurance, delivery reliability, and regulatory adherence across all contract phases. Booze demonstrates an unwavering commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with 100% of his awards directed toward Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSBs). This strategic focus reflects a deliberate effort to expand opportunities for underrepresented entrepreneurs in the defense industrial base while ensuring competitive, innovative solutions. His procurement patterns consistently prioritize WOSB eligibility and certification, aligning with Department of Defense mandates to enhance diversity in defense contracting. His primary procurement focus is concentrated in NAICS 621910 (Ambulance Services), which, despite its apparent classification, is leveraged here to support specialized medical evacuation and aeromedical logistics systems critical to Air Force operational tempo. This reflects a nuanced application of the NAICS code to procure high-integrity patient transport equipment, mobile medical instrumentation, and associated maintenance services tailored to expeditionary and deployed environments. His technical expertise lies at the intersection of defense logistics, medical support systems, and regulatory-compliant acquisition frameworks.
