Wanda L. Smith 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 procurements that sustain Air Force installation readiness. Her responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle management of contracts for specialized medical, facility, and communications services, ensuring compliance with FAR regulations and alignment with Air Force infrastructure modernization goals. She routinely handles complex acquisitions for high-precision equipment and technical services, balancing operational urgency with fiscal accountability and regulatory rigor. Smith 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 expertise in medical logistics, facility maintenance, and technical support services. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear statement of work definitions, and rigorous contractor accountability to ensure mission-critical service delivery. Her procurement portfolio reflects a strong commitment to small business participation, with 40% of awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate strategy to expand economic opportunity within the defense supply chain. While the majority of acquisitions remain open to all competitors, she actively prioritizes small business eligibility and ensures socioeconomic programs are leveraged where appropriate to enhance competition and innovation.
