Deaven Randolph

Deaven Randolph serves as a key procurement lead within the FA2550 50 Cons Pkp unit of the Department of the Air Force, supporting the acquisition of mission-critical infrastructure for aerospace and space operations. Responsible for managing complex contracting actions across facility modernization, security systems, and specialized equipment, Randolph ensures alignment with national defense priorities by procuring solutions that sustain satellite communications, ground-based instrumentation, and secure operational environments. Their work directly enables the modernization of space domain awareness capabilities through strategic sourcing of technical and construction-related services. Randolph maintains contracting relationships with a diverse set of vendors, including the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment and Blue Skies Furniture LLC, reflecting a blend of public-sector collaboration and niche commercial partnerships. While these entities may appear unconventional for a defense context, their involvement underscores a focus on integrated facility support, specialized furnishings for secure facilities, and administrative services underpinning mission readiness. The procurement pattern indicates a preference for non-traditional vendors capable of delivering tailored, low-profile solutions that meet stringent military standards without compromising operational security. A strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting is evident, with over 57% of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, and nearly 29% reserved for service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses. This reflects a deliberate strategy to broaden vendor participation while ensuring compliance with federal small business goals. Randolph consistently prioritizes small business engagement across multiple socioeconomic categories, reinforcing the agency’s mandate to foster innovation through diverse supplier networks. Primary procurement activities center on NAICS 236220 (commercial building construction) and 561621 (security systems services), with additional focus on flooring, custom cabinetry, and food service contracting to support occupied operational sites. This multidisciplinary approach reveals expertise in acquiring integrated facility systems—combining physical infrastructure, access control, and sustainment services—to maintain mission-critical environments under demanding defense conditions.
