Jacob Kamelamela

Jacob Kamelamela serves as a key procurement professional within the Department of the Army’s 0413 Aq Hq Rco-hi, supporting mission-enabling services across Pacific installations. Responsible for managing a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on facility maintenance, environmental compliance, and infrastructure sustainability, Kamelamela ensures operational readiness through timely acquisition of essential support services. His work directly enables the agency’s strategic priorities in resilient energy systems, waste management, and mission-critical logistics, with a focus on long-term operational continuity and regulatory adherence. Kamelamela maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including HAMASAKI CONSTRUCTION LLC, PHOENIX V LLC, SURECAN LLC, HONOLULU DISPOSAL SERVICE, INC., and PERRY MANAGEMENT CORP OF SOUTH DAKOTA, L.L.C. These partnerships span construction, waste disposal, environmental remediation, and facility operations, reflecting a preference for established regional vendors with proven capacity to deliver complex, geographically dispersed services. His contracting approach emphasizes reliability, compliance, and performance-based outcomes, often leveraging task-order contracts and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) mechanisms to meet dynamic operational needs. His procurement patterns show a strong orientation toward open competition, with 63.2% of awards issued without set-asides, while maintaining a significant commitment to small business participation—36.8% of contracts are awarded under Total Small Business Set-Asides per FAR 19.5. Though no specific socioeconomic categories like 8(a) or HUBZone dominate, his consistent use of small business set-asides demonstrates a deliberate effort to foster local economic resilience and contractor diversity in the Pacific theater. Kamelamela’s primary NAICS focus areas include 562991 (Septic Tank and Related Services), 339999 (Miscellaneous Manufacturing), and 562111 (Solid Waste Collection), indicating deep expertise in environmental services and infrastructure support. He routinely procures specialized industrial maintenance, waste handling systems, and facility utilities, reflecting technical proficiency in non-traditional military logistics domains critical to installation sustainability.
