82 CONS CSO TEAM

The 82 Cons CSO Team serves as the primary contracting unit within the FA3020 82 Cons Lgc, a critical component of the Department of the Air Force responsible for sustaining mission-critical infrastructure at Air Force installations. They manage the full lifecycle of procurement actions for specialized facility furnishings, maintenance equipment, and integrated technical systems essential to operational readiness. Their acquisitions focus on durable, high-reliability goods that support base functionality, including custom-built workstations, modular storage solutions, and non-standardized hardware requiring technical specification compliance. As a frontline contracting office, they ensure alignment with Air Force facility modernization goals while adhering to stringent defense logistics standards. The team maintains consistent, long-term relationships with key vendors such as Valiant Products Corporation and Logistics365 Inc., both of which provide tailored manufacturing and logistics support for mission-specific equipment. These partnerships are characterized by collaborative specification development, rapid response to urgent operational needs, and adherence to defense-grade quality controls. The team favors vendors with proven capacity for small-batch, high-precision production and just-in-time delivery, fostering reliable supply chain resilience across dispersed installations. The 82 Cons CSO Team maintains a 100% Small Business Set-Aside preference under FAR 19.5, demonstrating an unwavering commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals. All procurements are structured exclusively for small business participation, ensuring equitable access to defense opportunities for firms capable of meeting technical requirements without large-scale manufacturing infrastructure. This pattern reinforces the Air Force’s broader strategy to leverage agile, niche-capable suppliers in support of distributed operational environments. Their procurement activity is entirely concentrated under NAICS 339999 (All Other Miscellaneous Manufacturing), reflecting a specialized focus on non-standardized, custom-engineered goods not covered by broader manufacturing categories. They procure items such as bespoke facility furniture, modular tooling systems, and integrated maintenance kits requiring precise dimensional and material specifications. This domain demands deep technical understanding of material science, ergonomic design, and military-grade durability standards, positioning the team as experts in niche industrial procurement within the defense ecosystem.
