Tony D. Roy, Jr. serves as a Contracting Officer for the FA2823 AFTC PZIO under the Department of the Air Force, where he manages the acquisition of critical test and evaluation systems essential to aerospace mission readiness. His portfolio focuses on procuring advanced sensing, communication, and instrumentation technologies for avionics, electronic warfare, and signal intelligence platforms. Roy ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while supporting the agency’s strategic imperative to modernize test infrastructure and enhance electromagnetic compatibility and data integrity across defense platforms. He routinely handles complex sole-source, competitive, and sealed-bid contracts requiring technical rigor and rigorous oversight. Roy maintains consistent contracting relationships with a core group of specialized vendors, including TOM HAMMONDS ENTERPRISES, LLC, STREET LEGAL INDUSTRIES, INC, SPEEGLE CONSTRUCTION, INC, DETECT INC, and THE CONTROLS COMPANY, LLC. These partnerships reflect a blend of niche engineering firms delivering custom test equipment, specialized construction services for instrumentation facilities, and systems integrators supporting signal processing and control hardware. His approach emphasizes vendor reliability, technical alignment with mission requirements, and long-term performance accountability, fostering stable collaborations with contractors possessing proven expertise in defense-grade environments. While 80% of his acquisitions are conducted without set-asides, Roy consistently allocates 20% of his portfolio to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to expanding small business participation in high-technology defense procurement. He prioritizes firms with relevant technical certifications and operational capacity, ensuring socioeconomic goals are met without compromising mission-critical performance standards. His primary NAICS focus includes 238210 for electrical and wiring installation in test ranges, 238110 for concrete infrastructure supporting instrumentation sites, and 511210 for software and data systems supporting test instrumentation. Though some codes reflect non-core categories, they indicate a broader need for integrated facility support services. Roy’s expertise lies at the intersection of physical infrastructure, electronic systems integration, and mission-specific test environment development, making him a key enabler of Air Force test and evaluation modernization.
