Craig McGuire

Craig McGuire serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA3099 47 Conf Cc under the Department of the Air Force, where he manages the acquisition of specialized construction, engineering, and logistical support services critical to airfield and facility resilience. His role centers on ensuring operational readiness through timely execution of capital improvement contracts, with a focus on maintaining mission-critical aviation infrastructure. McGuire handles full lifecycle procurements—from solicitation and source selection to contract administration—ensuring compliance with FAR and AF supplemental regulations. He specializes in complex, performance-based acquisitions that require technical precision and strict adherence to military installation standards. McGuire maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including AR6 Construction & Engineering, LLC and Horsepower Geospatial LLC, both of which deliver high-stakes construction, geospatial surveying, and infrastructure support services. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven expertise in military-grade facility sustainment, often selecting firms with prior experience on Air Force installations. These partnerships are characterized by long-term contract performance, technical reliability, and a shared commitment to mission-critical timelines and safety protocols. McGuire’s procurement portfolio reflects no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. While he does not prioritize socioeconomic categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, his approach emphasizes technical capability, past performance, and mission alignment over socioeconomic criteria. His contracting decisions are driven by operational necessity and the need for immediate, high-integrity execution in support of Air Force readiness objectives. His primary procurement focus is on NAICS 488991 (Packing and Crating), indicating a specialized need for secure, military-compliant packaging and crating services to support the transport and installation of sensitive equipment and infrastructure components. This specialization underscores his technical domain expertise in logistics support for high-value, fragile, or classified assets, ensuring that all materials meet stringent DoD handling and transportation standards.
