Yolanda A. Butler

Yolanda A. Butler supports the Department of the Air Force’s FA2521 45 Cons Pk facility by managing specialized procurement activities critical to sustaining aerospace operations and base infrastructure readiness. She oversees the acquisition of precision instrumentation, environmental control systems, and mission-critical communications and security equipment, ensuring alignment with operational requirements for airfield and range complexes. Her work directly enables the maintenance of high-integrity testing environments and climate-controlled facilities essential to flight readiness and system calibration. She handles a mix of commercial and custom-engineered procurements under FAR Part 13 and Part 15 procedures, often coordinating with engineering and logistics teams to define technical specifications and performance standards. Butler maintains consistent relationships with a select group of contractors specializing in niche technical domains, including Roberts Treescaping, LLC for site-specific environmental services; Thoma-Sea Marine Constructors, L.L.C. for specialized infrastructure support; Cypress Solutions LLC for electronic systems integration; and Interconnect Wiring LLP for mission-critical cabling and signal infrastructure. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in defense-adjacent applications, often requiring compliance with MIL-SPEC standards and secure handling protocols. Her contracting approach emphasizes reliability, technical precision, and long-term serviceability over low-cost bidding. Her procurement portfolio demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 77.8% of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This pattern reflects a deliberate strategy to cultivate capability within the small business industrial base, particularly among firms with expertise in specialized manufacturing and technical services. She actively prioritizes vendors with relevant socioeconomic certifications, reinforcing the agency’s mandate to promote equitable economic opportunity while maintaining mission-critical performance standards. Her primary technical focus lies in NAICS 334515 for electrical measurement instrumentation, 333912 for air and gas compressor systems, 334220 for wireless communications equipment, and 238220 for HVAC and climate control contracting. These categories underscore her domain expertise in mission-critical environmental and analytical systems, where accuracy, durability, and electromagnetic compatibility are non-negotiable requirements for operational success.
