Anthony Pylant

Anthony Pylant serves as a key procurement lead within the 0413 Aq Hq Rco-hi, part of the Department of the Army’s Pacific regional operations, where he manages mission-enabling acquisitions to sustain Army installations and ensure operational readiness. His responsibilities include planning, soliciting, and awarding contracts for facility maintenance, infrastructure support, and environmental compliance services critical to installation sustainability. Pylant routinely handles complex, performance-based acquisitions under FAR Part 37 and IDIQ mechanisms, prioritizing long-term service delivery over commodity procurement to align with the agency’s strategic goals in resilient infrastructure and energy security. He maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of regional contractors, including HAMASAKI CONSTRUCTION LLC, PHOENIX V LLC, SURECAN LLC, HONOLULU DISPOSAL SERVICE, INC., and PERRY MANAGEMENT CORP OF SOUTH DAKOTA, L.L.C. These partnerships reflect a preference for established, locally rooted vendors with proven capacity in construction, waste management, and facility operations. Pylant’s contracting approach emphasizes reliability, compliance with environmental regulations, and rapid response capabilities tailored to the unique logistical challenges of Pacific theater installations. Pylant demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with 75% of his acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, ensuring meaningful opportunities for small businesses to support critical government functions. His pattern of set-asides underscores a deliberate strategy to cultivate a diverse, resilient contractor base capable of meeting the Army’s evolving infrastructure needs without reliance on large prime contractors. His procurement focus is heavily concentrated in NAICS 611710 (Educational Support Services), reflecting a significant investment in training facilities, instructional infrastructure, and support services for military education programs, complemented by NAICS 238110 (Poured Concrete Foundation and Structure Contractors) for essential civil works and facility modernization. This dual specialization reveals deep expertise in integrating educational readiness with physical infrastructure resilience across the Pacific region.
