Andrew Graef

Andrew Graef serves as a key procurement lead within the FA4613 90 Cons Pk unit of the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing acquisitions critical to the sustainment and modernization of remote nuclear missile field infrastructure. His work ensures the operational resilience of launch facilities, command centers, and associated utility systems by overseeing contracts for specialized construction, environmental control systems, and facility inspection services. Graef’s portfolio is tightly aligned with the agency’s mission to maintain uninterrupted nuclear deterrence capabilities, requiring precision in technical specifications and strict adherence to defense infrastructure standards. He maintains consistent contracting relationships with a select group of specialized vendors, including Olgoonik Specialty Contractors, LLC, Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, and SafeWare Inc., each recognized for their expertise in defense-grade construction, HVAC systems for secure facilities, and safety compliance services. These partnerships reflect a preference for contractors with proven experience in remote, high-security environments and the ability to meet stringent Department of Defense technical and security requirements. Graef’s procurement strategy is fully aligned with small business goals, as all acquisitions under his purview are set aside exclusively for small businesses under FAR 19.5. This 100% small business set-aside policy underscores a deliberate commitment to fostering vendor diversity and enabling niche contractors to support mission-critical defense infrastructure. His contracting patterns prioritize socioeconomic inclusion without compromising technical rigor. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 333415 for commercial and industrial refrigeration and HVAC systems, NAICS 332313 for plate work fabrication, NAICS 236220 for institutional construction, and NAICS 541350 for building inspection services. These categories reflect deep technical expertise in sustaining hardened, climate-controlled, and security-compliant facilities essential to the Air Force’s strategic deterrent posture.
