Carlos Bernal

Carlos Bernal serves as a key procurement professional within the FA3016 502 Cons Cl under the Department of the Air Force, supporting mission-critical infrastructure sustainment through strategic acquisitions of specialized facility, medical, and communications services. He manages a diverse portfolio of contracts aimed at maintaining operational readiness across Air Force installations, with a focus on ensuring safe, modernized, and technologically capable environments for personnel and equipment. His acquisitions routinely involve maintenance support, custom software development, building services, and communications equipment procurement, aligning closely with the agency’s priorities in infrastructure modernization and force readiness. Bernal maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including PERRY MANAGEMENT CORP OF SOUTH DAKOTA, L.L.C, WILLIAM T BROOKS & ASSOCIATES INC, CITADEL FEDERAL SOLUTIONS LLC, NEXLEGACY LLC, and AJ COMMERCIAL SERVICES, INC. These vendors provide niche expertise in facility operations, medical support systems, and communications infrastructure, reflecting a preference for specialized, mission-aligned service providers with proven performance on government installations. His contracting patterns suggest a reliance on established partners with demonstrated capability in complex, high-reliability environments. A strong commitment to small business participation characterizes Bernal’s procurement approach, with approximately two-thirds of his acquisitions set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster economic opportunity while leveraging the agility and innovation of small business contractors. While no other socioeconomic set-asides are dominant, the consistent use of total small business set-asides underscores a structured effort to expand vendor diversity within the Air Force’s support ecosystem. His technical focus centers on NAICS codes 811219 (building services), 541511 (custom computer programming), 561790 (building maintenance), 334290 (communications equipment manufacturing), and 532490 (industrial equipment leasing). These reflect expertise in procuring integrated facility solutions, bespoke software for operational systems, and specialized equipment leasing arrangements critical to sustaining modern Air Force installations.
