Blake serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA3016 502 Cons Cl under the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions that sustain Air Force installation readiness. Her responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle of contract actions—from requirements validation and market research to solicitation, evaluation, and award—for services essential to facility operations, medical support, and infrastructure maintenance. She specializes in procuring non-defense-specific but operationally vital services that ensure safe, functional, and technologically enabled environments for personnel and equipment, aligning closely with the agency’s strategic priorities in modernization and sustainment. Blake maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including PERRY MANAGEMENT CORP OF SOUTH DAKOTA, L.L.C., WILLIAM T BROOKS & ASSOCIATES INC, CITADEL FEDERAL SOLUTIONS LLC, NEXLEGACY LLC, and AJ COMMERCIAL SERVICES, INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven capability in facility services, administrative support, and specialized maintenance. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and contractor accountability, fostering long-term, results-driven vendor relationships grounded in compliance and reliability. Her procurement portfolio reflects a balanced commitment to socioeconomic goals, with 60% of awards issued under open competition and 30% set aside for total small business participation under FAR 19.5. An additional 10% are competed among 8(a) certified firms, demonstrating a deliberate effort to expand opportunities for small disadvantaged businesses while maintaining competitive integrity and mission readiness. Blake’s primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 561720 (Janitorial Services), 541611 (Administrative Management Consulting), and 339999 (Miscellaneous Manufacturing), with secondary activity in pest control and equipment rental. She specializes in acquiring facility support services, operational consulting, and niche manufacturing solutions that directly enable installation sustainment, reflecting deep expertise in non-tactical, mission-enabling acquisitions within the Air Force’s broader infrastructure ecosystem.
