Victor Vizcarra

Victor Vizcarra serves as Contracts Manager for FA8823 Sustainment MCPNT SSC/PKL under the Department of the Air Force, where he leads the acquisition and contract management of critical aerospace and space-based sustainment programs. Responsible for ensuring operational readiness of guided missile systems, satellite communications platforms, and global positioning infrastructure, Vizcarra oversees the full lifecycle of complex defense acquisitions—from requirements validation through contract award and performance monitoring. His portfolio centers on high-stakes, mission-critical systems requiring stringent technical compliance and long-term sustainment support, making him a pivotal figure in maintaining the nation’s space and missile defense capabilities. Vizcarra collaborates with a select group of Tier-1 defense prime contractors and specialized systems integrators with proven expertise in guided missile sustainment and space vehicle modernization. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages vendors with deep technical capabilities in propulsion systems, avionics integration, and space-based command and control architectures. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, risk mitigation, and lifecycle cost efficiency, fostering long-term partnerships with firms capable of delivering sustained technical support across multi-year operational cycles. Vizcarra’s contracting activity is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of procurements conducted under full and open competition. This reflects the highly specialized nature of the systems under sustainment, which require advanced engineering capabilities typically found only among large, established defense contractors with DoD clearance and heritage experience. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in his portfolio, his team ensures all solicitations are structured to allow eligible small businesses to compete where technical requirements permit. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336414 (Guided Missile and Space Vehicle Manufacturing), encompassing missile system upgrades, propulsion sustainment, and guidance module modernization. He also actively procures services under NAICS 927110 (Space Research and Technology), including satellite telemetry, orbital maintenance support, and secure space communications infrastructure. Vizcarra’s domain expertise spans propulsion systems, space-based sensors, and secure data links, making him a key technical contracting authority within the Air Force’s space and missile sustainment enterprise.
