Andre Kalvelage

Andre Kalvelage serves as a key procurement professional within the FA4460 19 Cons Pka unit of the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing facility infrastructure and installation support contracts critical to operational readiness. He oversees the acquisition of maintenance, construction, and environmental services that sustain Air Force base operations, ensuring compliance with federal contracting regulations and mission-driven infrastructure resilience goals. His portfolio primarily includes construction-related services, landscaping, and specialized building equipment installations, aligning with the agency’s mandate to maintain airfields, roadways, utilities, and mission-critical facilities under the National Defense Authorization Act framework. Kalvelage maintains consistent contracting relationships with DREW INVESTMENT GROUP, LLC and L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED, both of which provide high-volume, performance-based facility services ranging from structural steel work to comprehensive landscaping and grounds maintenance. His procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships grounded in past performance, quality control, and timely delivery, often leveraging task order contracts under indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) vehicles to ensure responsive and scalable support across multiple installations. A strong advocate for small business inclusion, Kalvelage prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, directing 70% of his acquisitions to small business concerns, including those certified under HUBZone, SDVOSB, and WOSB programs. His socioeconomic contracting strategy reflects a deliberate effort to expand economic opportunity while enhancing competition and innovation within the defense infrastructure sector. His technical focus centers on NAICS 238290 (Other Building Equipment Contractors) and 238120 (Structural Steel and Precast Concrete Contractors), with significant activity in landscaping services (561730). This reflects deep expertise in civil infrastructure, site development, and utility system upgrades, positioning him as a specialist in mission-critical facility sustainment contracting within the Air Force’s installation support ecosystem.
