Albert T. Bealer

Albert T. Bealer serves as Chief of the Construction Flight within the FA4407 375th Construction Logistics Group under the Department of the Air Force, where he leads the planning, solicitation, and execution of facility construction and infrastructure projects critical to Air Force operational readiness. His role encompasses the full lifecycle management of construction acquisitions, including design-build, fixed-price, and performance-based contracts for airfield, lodging, and security-related facilities. Bealer ensures compliance with federal construction standards and integrates environmental and safety regulations into procurement strategies, directly supporting the agency’s mission to sustain mission-critical infrastructure across Air Force installations. Bealer maintains established working relationships with a core group of contractors, including CHALLENGE UNLIMITED, INC., JAYTECH, INC., and NORTH AMERICAN IMPORT AND EXPORT COMPANY LLC, who consistently deliver high-quality commercial and institutional construction services. These partnerships are characterized by long-term reliability, technical proficiency in military-grade construction standards, and proven performance on time-sensitive, high-stakes projects. His procurement approach emphasizes vendor accountability, quality assurance, and adherence to federal construction codes, fostering a stable contractor ecosystem focused on mission-critical outcomes. While the majority of his acquisitions are conducted under open competition, Bealer maintains a consistent 25% commitment to Total Small Business Set-Asides in accordance with FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate effort to expand opportunities for small business contractors without compromising project integrity. His socioeconomic contracting patterns reflect a balanced approach—prioritizing efficiency and capability while actively engaging qualified small businesses in the construction supply chain. His primary technical focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), where he oversees the construction and renovation of barracks, administrative facilities, and support buildings, complemented by NAICS 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction) for base access and utility infrastructure. Bealer’s expertise centers on complex, code-compliant construction projects that meet stringent Department of Defense standards for durability, safety, and operational continuity.
