Bede Ley

Bede Ley serves as a key procurement professional within the FA8101 organization of the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing mission-critical facility sustainment contracts that ensure operational readiness across Air Force installations. Focused exclusively on Facilities Support Services (NAICS 561210), Ley oversees the acquisition of maintenance, repair, and operational support services for infrastructure systems, including analytical and audiovisual equipment, cybersecurity-adjacent technical environments, and mission-enabling facilities. Their work directly supports the Air Force’s imperative to maintain secure, functional, and resilient physical environments essential to national defense operations. Ley maintains consistent contracting relationships with MACK GLOBAL LLC and ORE POWER LLC, both of which provide specialized facility services ranging from preventive maintenance and infrastructure modernization to technical support for mission-critical systems. These partnerships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven expertise in aerospace and defense facility operations, characterized by repeat engagements and performance-based contract structures that emphasize accountability and mission alignment. A balanced approach to socioeconomic contracting is evident in Ley’s portfolio, with equal weighting between 8(a) competed awards and open, non-set-aside competitions. This pattern demonstrates a deliberate commitment to fostering small business participation—particularly through 8(a) certification—while maintaining flexibility to source the most capable providers for complex, high-stakes facility sustainment requirements. The sole focus on NAICS 561210 underscores deep technical expertise in facility support services, including custodial, groundskeeping, utilities management, and specialized maintenance of sensitive infrastructure. Ley’s acquisitions prioritize integrated service solutions that enhance operational continuity, reduce downtime, and align with Air Force standards for security, compliance, and mission assurance in controlled environments.
