Eriko Fukushima

Eriko Fukushima serves as a Contracting Officer for FA5209 374th Contracting Squadron under the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing the acquisition of critical infrastructure, facility maintenance, and logistics support services across U.S. military installations in Japan. Her role ensures operational readiness by procuring mission-essential services that sustain safe, compliant, and functional environments for personnel and equipment. She routinely handles complex, multi-year contracts spanning construction, engineering, remediation, and facility management, often requiring coordination with international vendors and strict adherence to DoD and FAR compliance standards. Fukushima maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including KOTRACK INCORPORATED, BRANSCOME OPERATING, LLC, MOTOROLA SOLUTIONS, INC., AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, and KOTSUKENSETSU CO., LTD., reflecting a blend of domestic and international vendor partnerships. These relationships are built on proven performance in delivering facility construction, electrical systems, communications infrastructure, and environmental remediation services under demanding operational conditions. Her procurement approach emphasizes reliability, technical competency, and timely delivery, with a preference for contractors with established track records in austere and geographically dispersed environments. Fukushima’s contracting portfolio reflects a strong emphasis on open competition, with 100% of her awards issued under no set-aside preferences. While she does not prioritize socioeconomic programs such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, her focus remains on mission-critical outcomes and full and open competition to ensure the highest quality and operational resilience. This approach aligns with the agency’s strategic need for rapid, scalable, and technically sound solutions across its Pacific theater operations. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and 238210 (Electrical Contractors), with significant activity in remediation services (562910) and engineering services (541330). She specializes in acquiring integrated facility upgrades, power systems, hazardous material abatement, and technical design services, demonstrating deep expertise in construction lifecycle management and infrastructure modernization within military operational contexts.
