MSgt Theresa Haynes serves as a senior contracting professional within the Department of the Air Force’s FA7014 office, where she plays a pivotal role in advancing operational readiness through the acquisition of mission-critical professional services. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of contracts for administrative management consulting, systems engineering support, and enterprise IT modernization initiatives. Haynes ensures alignment with Air Force strategic priorities by structuring solicitations that prioritize technical excellence, cybersecurity compliance, and sustainable service delivery. She routinely handles complex, high-stakes procurements under FAR Part 12 and Part 36, focusing on performance-based acquisitions that drive efficiency and mission outcomes. Haynes maintains enduring partnerships with key contractors including SIGMATECH, INC. and Purdue University, reflecting a balanced approach between industry specialists and academic research entities. Her procurement strategy emphasizes collaborative, long-term vendor relationships grounded in technical capability and past performance, particularly in areas requiring deep domain expertise in defense analytics and enterprise systems. She frequently engages with contractors through IDIQs and task-order contracts to ensure agile, responsive support for evolving mission needs. Her contracting patterns demonstrate a strong commitment to socioeconomic diversity, with nearly half of her awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5.
