Daniel E. Abert

Daniel E. Abert serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA4814 6 Cons Pk unit of the Department of the Air Force, where he manages a diverse portfolio of procurement actions critical to sustaining operational readiness and base infrastructure. His responsibilities include executing full-cycle contracting processes for services and supplies that support communications systems, personnel training, and facility maintenance across garrisoned and deployed environments. Abert ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning acquisitions with the agency’s strategic priorities in cybersecurity, logistics, and mission support. Abert maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors including SUPPLYCORE LLC, CYBERPROTEX, LLC, and Liberty Communications, Inc., reflecting a focus on specialized service providers in security systems, IT infrastructure, and facility support. His contracting patterns indicate a preference for established vendors with proven capabilities in niche domains, fostering reliable partnerships that deliver mission-critical outcomes. He frequently engages firms offering integrated solutions in pest control, flooring, and equipment supply, indicating a hands-on approach to managing complex, multi-disciplinary requirements. His procurement strategy prioritizes small business participation, with 42.9% of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a strong commitment to socioeconomic goals. While no set-aside programs like 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB dominate his portfolio, his consistent use of small business set-asides reflects a deliberate effort to broaden vendor diversity and enhance competition among qualified small firms. Abert’s primary NAICS focus spans five key categories: Security Systems Services, Flooring Contractors, Service Establishment Equipment Wholesalers, Logging, and Exterminating and Pest Control Services. This unique blend underscores his role in procuring both high-tech cybersecurity infrastructure and essential facility maintenance services, requiring technical fluency across disparate domains to ensure operational continuity and environmental compliance across Air Force installations.
