Christopher N. Jensen

Christopher N. Jensen serves as a Contracting Officer within the Department of the Air Force’s FA2517 21 Cons Bldg 350 office, where he manages mission-critical acquisitions to modernize and sustain defense infrastructure. His portfolio focuses on procuring facility upgrades, integrated electronic systems, and fire safety technologies essential to operational readiness. Jensen ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurements with strategic Air Force priorities for resilient, secure installations. He handles a mix of services and specialized equipment contracts, often requiring technical evaluation and performance-based acquisition methodologies. Jensen maintains established relationships with key contractors including ASTERI CONSULTING SERVICES LLC, AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, ARHAB LLC, and PRIMEPRO BUSINESS SOLUTIONS LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in facility modernization, communication system integration, and site development for military environments. His contracting approach emphasizes performance outcomes, risk mitigation, and vendor reliability, fostering long-term collaborations with firms capable of delivering complex, mission-aligned solutions under stringent security and compliance standards. While the majority of his acquisitions—78.4%—are conducted without set-asides, Jensen consistently supports small business participation, with 21.6% of awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. His procurement patterns reflect a balanced commitment to competition and socioeconomic goals, prioritizing small businesses that demonstrate technical capability and past performance rather than relying heavily on specific socioeconomic categories like 8(a) or HUBZone. This approach ensures robust market engagement while maintaining mission fidelity. His primary NAICS focus areas include 334310 for audio and video equipment, 339920 for athletic and safety gear, and 337211 for office furniture, alongside niche procurements in educational support services and nonhazardous waste disposal. These reflect the diverse operational needs of Air Force installations, from training environments to facility maintenance. Jensen’s expertise lies in bridging technical specifications with acquisition strategy, ensuring that procured goods and services enhance both safety and mission effectiveness across DoD infrastructure.
