MSgt Daniel B. Perry serves as a key contracting professional within the FA4418 628th Contracting Squadron of the Department of the Air Force, supporting infrastructure resilience and operational readiness at Joint Base Charleston and associated installations. He manages a diverse portfolio of construction, maintenance, and mission-enabling acquisitions, ensuring compliance with Air Force facility standards and national defense priorities. His work directly supports the sustainment of airfield systems, utility networks, and critical building infrastructure, with a focus on timely, compliant, and mission-critical contract execution under FAR and DFARS guidelines. Perry maintains consistent partnerships with specialized contractors including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC for site and facility construction, PROTECT KITCHEN EXHAUST CLEANING, LLC for environmental compliance services, ACCESS PORTABLE TOILETS INC for temporary sanitation support, and ML Armaments LLC for security-related equipment. His contracting approach emphasizes vendor reliability, performance-based outcomes, and rapid response to operational needs, fostering long-term relationships with firms capable of delivering complex, time-sensitive services under dynamic military conditions. A strong advocate for socioeconomic contracting, Perry consistently prioritizes small business participation, with approximately 71.4% of his awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 and nearly 28.6% allocated as HUBZone set-asides. This reflects a deliberate strategy to cultivate local economic resilience and leverage the agility of small, community-based vendors in supporting base operations. His procurement focus centers on NAICS 811310 for industrial machinery maintenance, 236220 for commercial and institutional construction, and 332321 for metal fenestration systems, with additional activity in 334519 for specialized control devices and 721110 for transient lodging services. This technical breadth underscores his expertise in facility sustainment, environmental compliance, and mission-support infrastructure, making him a critical enabler of Air Force operational continuity.
