Wendy Jones

Wendy Jones serves as the primary procurement lead for the ASC Supplier Operations AE and AF Division under the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation, where she manages critical acquisitions of high-reliability aviation components essential to U.S. military aircraft readiness. Her role centers on sustaining legacy systems and enabling modernization efforts through the procurement of avionics, electrical subsystems, and airframe-specific parts. She executes complex contract actions under strict defense acquisition regulations, ensuring compliance with military specifications and supply chain resilience standards. Wendy’s portfolio includes sole-source, competitive, and performance-based contracts for mission-critical components that directly impact flight safety and operational availability. Wendy collaborates with a diverse base of Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers specializing in precision aerospace manufacturing and electronic component fabrication. While no single contractor dominates her award profile, she consistently engages with firms possessing AS9100 certification, ITAR compliance, and military-grade quality control systems. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven track records in delivering defect-free, long-lead items under tight operational timelines. She maintains rigorous supplier performance monitoring and integrates risk mitigation strategies into contract administration. Wendy’s procurement strategy is entirely non-set-aside, with 100% of her acquisitions conducted under open competition. This reflects the technical complexity and national security sensitivity of the components she procures, which often require specialized manufacturing capabilities not yet widely available among small or socioeconomic small businesses. While she does not prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, her process remains transparent and compliant with all federal acquisition regulations. Her primary focus lies in NAICS 336413 (Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing) and 334419 (Other Electronic Component Manufacturing), encompassing flight control modules, power distribution units, and embedded avionics hardware. Wendy possesses deep technical expertise in military-grade electronics, EMI shielding standards, and ruggedized component qualification, ensuring all procurements meet DoD airworthiness and lifecycle sustainment requirements.
