Dakota L. Asselyn

Dakota L. Asselyn serves as a key procurement professional within the FA4528 5 Cons, a unit of the Department of the Air Force responsible for sustaining and modernizing critical infrastructure across Air Force installations. Specializing in facility construction and building systems integration, Asselyn manages acquisitions for electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, and structural construction services supporting commercial, institutional, and industrial facilities. Their work ensures operational readiness through timely delivery of mission-critical infrastructure upgrades, aligning with Air Force installation resilience goals and federal construction standards. Asselyn maintains a strong working relationship with MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, a primary contractor for complex site development and facility construction tasks. The procurement pattern reflects a preference for established, performance-driven vendors with proven expertise in integrated building systems and site logistics. Collaborations are characterized by consistent re-engagement, emphasizing reliability, compliance with military construction codes, and adherence to schedule-driven delivery timelines essential to base operations. A pronounced commitment to small business participation defines Asselyn’s contracting approach, with 76.1% of acquisitions set aside for total small businesses under FAR 19.5. Additional awards are targeted toward women-owned and service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, reflecting a deliberate strategy to broaden vendor diversity while maintaining quality and capacity standards. This socioeconomic focus ensures broad participation from qualified small firms capable of delivering specialized construction and renovation services under tight operational constraints. The procurement portfolio is heavily concentrated in NAICS 238330 (Flooring Contractors) and 238330 (Flooring Contractors), with significant activity in showcase, partition, shelving, and locker manufacturing (337215). These reflect a focus on interior fit-outs, institutional furnishings, and functional space optimization within military facilities. Technical expertise centers on building system integration, materials compliance, and construction sequencing for occupied environments, ensuring minimal disruption to ongoing Air Force missions while delivering durable, code-compliant infrastructure.
