Wilbert Glay

Wilbert Glay serves as a key procurement lead within the FA2823 AFTC PZIO, a critical unit under the Department of the Air Force responsible for advancing airborne and ground-based sensing, communication, and test instrumentation systems. In this role, he manages the acquisition of specialized engineering services and technical equipment essential to the development, integration, and sustainment of avionics, electronic warfare, and signal intelligence platforms. His portfolio centers on test and evaluation infrastructure modernization, with a focus on electromagnetic compatibility, radar calibration, and high-fidelity data acquisition systems, ensuring mission readiness across aerospace test ranges and operational environments. Glay maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors 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, specialized construction support providers, and technology integrators capable of delivering custom test instrumentation, ruggedized hardware, and mission-critical software solutions. His contracting approach emphasizes technical precision, rapid prototyping, and field-deployable systems, often requiring vendor collaboration on classified or controlled technical specifications. While the majority of his acquisitions—70.7%—are conducted without set-asides, Glay demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 26.8% of awards directed toward Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. A smaller but consistent portion supports Local Area Set-Asides under FAR 26.2, reinforcing regional economic engagement. His procurement patterns reflect a balanced strategy between mission-critical performance and socioeconomic compliance. His primary NAICS focus includes 113310 (Logging), which supports range infrastructure maintenance, and 334220 (Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing), indicating deep technical engagement with RF systems and signal processing hardware. Additional activity in 488190 (Air Transportation Support) and 562119 (Waste Collection) underscores the breadth of logistics and environmental compliance needs supporting remote test operations.
