Brice Garlick

Brice Garlick serves as a key procurement lead within the FA3020 82 Cons Lgc unit of the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain mission-critical air base infrastructure and operational readiness. His work centers on securing durable facility furnishings, specialized technical systems, and integrated support services essential to daily Air Force operations. He routinely handles complex procurements under FAR Part 13 and Part 15 procedures, with a focus on high-reliability equipment and maintenance solutions that ensure continuous functionality across deployed installations. Garlick’s acquisitions directly enable the agency’s strategic priorities in modernizing facility environments and enhancing logistical resilience. He maintains consistent contracting relationships with VALIANT PRODUCTS CORPORATION and LOGISTICS365 INC, both of which provide specialized facility equipment and integrated support services critical to base sustainment. His working model emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships grounded in performance reliability and compliance with federal supply standards. These contractors are frequently selected for their ability to deliver mission-essential goods under tight timelines and stringent quality controls, reflecting a preference for proven, capable vendors with demonstrated experience in defense-sector logistics. Garlick exhibits a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with 85.7% of his acquisitions set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5. This high rate of small business set-asides underscores a deliberate strategy to foster competition among small, qualified suppliers and expand opportunities for disadvantaged firms. His contracting patterns consistently prioritize small business participation without compromising mission requirements, aligning with Air Force initiatives to strengthen the defense industrial base through inclusive procurement. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 423690 (electronic parts and equipment wholesale), 423430 (computer and peripheral equipment), and 334515 (instrument manufacturing for electrical testing), reflecting deep technical expertise in procuring precision measurement tools, facility electronics, and specialized instrumentation. He also regularly acquires ophthalmic goods and integrated support services, demonstrating a broad yet precise understanding of niche technical domains critical to Air Force health, safety, and operational infrastructure.
