Brian D Herndon

Brian D. Herndon serves as a key procurement professional within the FA4801 49 Cons Pk, a Department of the Air Force activity responsible for sustaining mission-critical aerospace and installation readiness. He manages acquisitions for facility infrastructure and specialty construction services essential to maintaining operational Air Force bases, ensuring that construction and maintenance projects align with defense readiness standards. His portfolio includes complex, multi-trade contracts requiring coordination of structural, roofing, flooring, and general specialty trade contractors to support base modernization and lifecycle sustainment efforts. Herndon maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors including UNICO GOVERNMENT SOLUTIONS, LLC, FSR CONSULTING LLC, and CLASSIC PRODUCTS CORP, among others, all of whom provide specialized construction and facility support services. His contracting approach emphasizes reliability, compliance with federal construction codes, and performance-based outcomes, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in quality execution and regulatory adherence. He frequently engages firms with proven experience in Department of Defense facility projects, prioritizing contractors with demonstrated capability in rapid-response maintenance and mission-critical infrastructure upgrades. Herndon’s procurement strategy is fully aligned with small business participation goals, as all of his acquisitions are structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate and consistent commitment to empowering small businesses, ensuring equitable access to defense construction opportunities without reliance on large prime contractors. His contracting patterns demonstrate a strong preference for socioeconomic programs that expand the defense industrial base through inclusive sourcing. His primary focus lies within NAICS codes 236220, 238130, 238160, 238330, and 238990, covering commercial and institutional building construction, framing, roofing, flooring, and other specialty trade contracting. He procures turnkey construction services, structural modifications, and facility maintenance systems critical to sustaining Air Force installations, requiring deep technical understanding of military construction standards, ANSI/ACI codes, and DoD facility sustainment requirements.
