AJ Deprizio

AJ Deprizio serves as a key procurement professional within the FA2835 AFLCMC Hanscom PZI, supporting the Department of the Air Force’s mission to sustain and modernize critical military infrastructure. Responsible for managing acquisition strategies for facility resilience and utility system upgrades, Deprizio oversees contracts aligned with operational readiness priorities, including energy-efficient building systems, secure communications infrastructure, and integrated support services. Their work directly enables base functionality and airpower deployment through timely, compliant acquisitions that adhere to federal procurement regulations and defense-specific requirements. Deprizio maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of specialty trade contractors, including Split Excavating, Inc., Veterans Development Corporation, Inc., Gannon & Scott Phoenix Inc., and Progexa Corp. These partnerships reflect a focus on niche, high-impact services such as site development, utility reconfiguration, and technical engineering support. The contracting approach emphasizes reliability, performance-based outcomes, and long-term vendor collaboration, with a preference for firms possessing proven expertise in military installation environments and compliance with DoD facility standards. A defining feature of Deprizio’s procurement portfolio is the exclusive use of Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a strong institutional commitment to socioeconomic contracting. All acquisitions are structured to maximize participation by small businesses, ensuring equitable access to defense-related opportunities and fostering a robust small business ecosystem within the aerospace and infrastructure support sectors. The primary technical focus lies in NAICS 238990 (All Other Specialty Trade Contractors), encompassing site work, demolition, grading, and utility installation, complemented by NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services) for design and technical oversight. This dual emphasis ensures that infrastructure modernization efforts are both constructively executed and technically sound, with a clear alignment to Air Force facility sustainment goals and resilience standards.
