Hilary L. Naquin serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA4661 7 Cons Cd unit of the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in securing mission-enabling services that sustain and modernize critical Air Force infrastructure. Her responsibilities include planning, soliciting, awarding, and administering contracts for facility sustainment, utility systems, and environmental operations, ensuring installations remain operationally ready across both garrison and expeditionary environments. She routinely handles complex acquisitions under FAR Part 12 and Part 36, with a focus on service-based contracts that support HVAC, electrical, airfield, and utility network integrity. While specific contractor names are not available, Naquin cultivates a diverse vendor ecosystem grounded in compliance with socioeconomic regulations and technical capability. Her procurement approach emphasizes collaboration with qualified small businesses and specialized service providers capable of delivering facility maintenance, equipment repair, and infrastructure support under tight operational timelines. She fosters long-term vendor relationships built on performance accountability, past performance evaluation, and adherence to Air Force installation standards. Naquin demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with over half of her acquisitions set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5. She consistently prioritizes Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) and 8(a) firms, while also incorporating HUBZone and other socioeconomically disadvantaged vendors into her portfolio. This pattern reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize economic opportunity while ensuring access to specialized, agile service providers capable of meeting mission-critical demands. Her technical focus centers on NAICS codes related to commercial and industrial machinery repair (811310), air conditioning and refrigeration equipment manufacturing (333415), and construction equipment leasing (532412). She procures a range of mission-support services including HVAC system maintenance, solid waste collection, and specialized equipment rentals essential to sustaining Air Force infrastructure resilience and operational continuity.
