Alcime Michele

Michele Alcime serves as a key procurement professional within the FA4690 28 Cons Pkc unit of the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain critical Air Force infrastructure and operational readiness. Their work centers on securing industrial maintenance, security systems, environmental control equipment, and facility support services essential to mission-critical installations. Alcime oversees the full lifecycle of contracting actions—from solicitation to award—ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurements with the agency’s strategic goals for reliability and resilience. Alcime maintains consistent working relationships with specialized vendors such as Ostrom Painting & Sandblasting, Inc., and Astronics Test Systems Inc., partnering with firms that deliver high-reliability industrial services and advanced test equipment for military-grade applications. These contractor relationships reflect a preference for niche technical providers capable of supporting complex maintenance, calibration, and facility modernization requirements. The working pattern emphasizes long-term vendor engagement, performance-based contracting, and technical validation to ensure service quality and mission compatibility. A strong commitment to socioeconomic goals is evident in Alcime’s procurement patterns, with 81.3% of contracts awarded under Total Small Business Set-Aside authorities per FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to prioritize small business participation across multiple categories, fostering competition and innovation while meeting statutory obligations. The consistent use of set-asides underscores a dedication to expanding opportunities for small, disadvantaged, and specialized service providers within the defense industrial base. The primary NAICS focus areas include 811310 for commercial and industrial machinery repair, 541990 for professional technical services, and 315990 and 339920 for specialized manufacturing. These reflect a procurement portfolio centered on facility maintenance, technical testing, and niche industrial support—domains requiring precision, regulatory compliance, and deep domain expertise in Air Force installation sustainment.
