He maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of specialized contractors, including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, PHOENIX MARINE LLC, and ATZ SOLUTION LLC, all of which provide facility maintenance, marine engineering, and technical support services. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in maritime infrastructure, hazardous material handling, and facility systems modernization. These partnerships are built on reliability, compliance with federal facility standards, and demonstrated capacity for rapid response to operational needs. Kelly demonstrates an unwavering commitment to small business participation, with 100% of his acquisitions set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5. His contracting strategy prioritizes socioeconomic programs that empower small disadvantaged firms and veteran-owned enterprises, ensuring equitable access to federal opportunities while strengthening the local industrial base. He actively promotes small business mentorship and subcontracting opportunities within his vendor network. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 561210 (Facilities Support Services), encompassing custodial, groundskeeping, HVAC, and building systems maintenance, with a secondary emphasis on NAICS 541380 (Testing Laboratories and Services) for environmental compliance and structural integrity assessments. He specializes in procuring services that ensure regulatory adherence, energy efficiency, and resilience of aging maritime facilities under high-use operational conditions.
