Gerry Slagle

Gerry Slagle serves as a key procurement lead within the FA4661 7 Cons Cd unit of the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing facility sustainment and infrastructure resilience contracts critical to Air Force installation readiness. Specializing in mission-enabling construction services, Slagle oversees the acquisition of roofing systems and related envelope maintenance solutions that ensure operational continuity across garrison and expeditionary environments. Their procurement activities directly support the agency’s mandate to preserve and modernize airfield, utility, and building infrastructure, with a sharp focus on lifecycle management of high-priority physical assets. Slagle maintains a contractor ecosystem composed exclusively of small businesses, with no large prime contractors engaged in recent award activity. The contracting approach emphasizes direct partnerships with certified roofing specialists, fostering long-term vendor relationships grounded in performance-based outcomes and compliance with military construction standards. These partnerships are cultivated through competitive small business set-asides, ensuring consistent access to technically proficient, locally responsive contractors capable of executing complex roofing installations under austere conditions. Slagle’s procurement strategy is fully aligned with a 100% Small Business Set-Aside mandate under FAR 19.5, reflecting a robust commitment to socioeconomic inclusion. All acquisitions are structured to maximize opportunities for small businesses, with no preference for other categories such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB—indicating a broad-based, non-discriminatory approach that prioritizes capability over certification type, as long as the vendor qualifies as a small business under SBA size standards. The agency’s sole NAICS focus is 238160 (Roofing Contractors), underscoring Slagle’s deep technical expertise in commercial and military-grade roofing systems, including single-ply membranes, modified bitumen, metal panel installations, and waterproofing assemblies. Procurements encompass full-scope roofing replacement, repair, and inspection services, often requiring adherence to UFC standards and environmental compliance protocols for hazardous material abatement. This singular specialization reflects a targeted, mission-critical approach to maintaining the integrity of Air Force infrastructure.
