David May

David May serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA4855 27 SoCons Lgc, a critical unit of the Department of the Air Force responsible for sustaining air base operational readiness through infrastructure modernization and facility services. In this role, he manages the full lifecycle of procurement actions for mission-critical construction and building systems, with a primary focus on plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) infrastructure. His acquisitions ensure the reliability and efficiency of base utilities, including wastewater treatment systems, climate control networks, and integrated mechanical systems essential to mission continuity. David’s expertise lies in navigating complex federal contracting regulations to deliver timely, compliant, and high-performance solutions that align with Air Force sustainability and resilience goals. David maintains a consistent working relationship with ALTUS TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS LLC, a primary contractor for HVAC and facility systems integration. His procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships grounded in technical proficiency, performance reliability, and adherence to stringent military specifications. He engages with contractors through competitive sealed bidding and negotiated contracts under FAR Part 15, prioritizing technical evaluations and past performance to ensure mission-critical outcomes. His collaborations are characterized by structured contract administration, rigorous quality assurance oversight, and proactive risk mitigation to support continuous base operations. David’s contracting portfolio reflects a strict preference for full and open competition, with 100% of his awards issued under no set-aside conditions. While he does not currently utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, his approach is rooted in maximizing value through technical merit and contractor capability rather than socioeconomic classifications. This reflects a mission-driven focus on operational readiness over socioeconomic targeting, consistent with the agency’s infrastructure priorities. His primary NAICS specialization is 238220—Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors—where he procures turnkey mechanical systems, ductwork, chillers, boilers, and integrated building automation controls. David’s domain expertise centers on high-reliability HVAC installations for classified and mission-critical facilities, ensuring compliance with DoD energy efficiency standards and environmental regulations.
