Evan E. Kaufman

Evan E. Kaufman serves as a key procurement professional within the FA8601 Aflcmc Pzio unit of the Department of the Air Force, supporting mission-critical aerospace and defense readiness through the acquisition of high-precision analytical instrumentation, electrotherapeutic devices, and industrial measurement systems. He manages contracts for laboratory-grade equipment used in flight testing, fuel analysis, and environmental monitoring, ensuring the operational integrity of airpower systems. His acquisitions span technical domains requiring stringent calibration standards and compliance with military specification requirements, often involving complex technical evaluations and performance-based service delivery. Kaufman maintains a consistent working relationship with C MARTIN CO INC, a primary vendor for specialized instrumentation and maintenance services. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established contractors with proven expertise in aerospace-grade equipment, though he actively engages a diverse supplier base to meet evolving technical needs. His approach emphasizes reliability, technical compliance, and long-term service support, fostering partnerships with vendors capable of delivering certified, mission-essential hardware and maintenance protocols. While the majority of his acquisitions—76.9%—are conducted as full and open competitions, Kaufman demonstrates a deliberate commitment to small business participation, with 23.1% of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. He consistently prioritizes socioeconomic opportunities for small businesses without favoring specific categories such as 8(a) or HUBZone, reflecting a balanced, performance-driven approach to socioeconomic contracting. His procurement focus is concentrated in NAICS 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing), reflecting deep expertise in laboratory and field-deployable measurement systems. He also procures services under NAICS 238220 (plumbing, heating, and HVAC) and 561720 (janitorial services), indicating a broad operational support role. This mix underscores his ability to manage both high-technology defense acquisitions and essential facility maintenance, ensuring holistic readiness across mission-critical environments.
