Tiara L Moore

Tiara L. Moore serves as a Contract Negotiator responsible for managing the full lifecycle of complex acquisitions within the aerospace and defense sector. Her role centers on ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while negotiating terms that balance mission needs, cost efficiency, and risk mitigation. She specializes in procurements related to aircraft components and auxiliary systems, working closely with engineering, program management, and legal teams to structure solicitations that attract qualified vendors. Her procurement activities support critical national security and aviation infrastructure initiatives, with a focus on technical specifications requiring precision manufacturing and rigorous quality assurance standards. Moore engages with a focused network of manufacturers and suppliers specializing in advanced aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently collaborates with Tier 1 and Tier 2 aerospace suppliers possessing AS9100 certification and proven track records in high-reliability component production. Her working relationships are characterized by structured, transparent negotiations grounded in technical evaluation criteria and performance-based contracting principles. She prioritizes vendors with established quality control systems and supply chain resilience, fostering long-term partnerships built on accountability and regulatory compliance. Moore’s contracting activity reflects a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted without set-aside designations. This indicates a strategic focus on maximizing market participation from all qualified entities, regardless of socioeconomic status, rather than reserving awards for specific categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB firms. Her approach aligns with mission-critical requirements where technical capability and production capacity take precedence over socioeconomic preferences. Her primary procurement focus is on NAICS 336413—Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing—encompassing avionics housings, hydraulic actuators, flight control components, and non-engine airframe subsystems. She possesses deep technical familiarity with FAA and DoD certification standards, and her negotiations often involve complex engineering requirements, just-in-time delivery schedules, and stringent inspection protocols. Moore’s expertise lies in bridging industrial manufacturing capabilities with operational aviation demands, ensuring procured systems meet exacting performance and safety benchmarks.
