Jamius R. Virgil

SSgt Jamius R. Virgil serves as a contracting specialist within the 47th Contracting Squadron (FA3099) under the Department of the Air Force, responsible for executing acquisition strategies that sustain critical airfield and installation infrastructure. His role centers on managing construction, maintenance, and logistical support contracts essential to operational readiness, ensuring airfield integrity, facility functionality, and mission-critical support services remain uninterrupted. He routinely handles complex procurements under FAR Part 36 for construction and FAR Part 37 for service contracts, coordinating with engineering, facilities, and logistics teams to align contracting actions with base-wide modernization priorities. SSgt Virgil maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including AR6 Construction & Engineering, LLC and Horsepower Geospatial LLC, firms known for specialized capabilities in military-grade infrastructure development and geospatial support services. His procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and risk-managed delivery, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in technical proficiency, compliance, and timely execution. These relationships reflect a preference for contractors with proven experience in Department of Defense environments and robust quality assurance protocols. His contracting portfolio demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with over 41% of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 and nearly 12% reserved for SBA-certified Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Businesses (EDWOSB). While nearly half of his acquisitions remain open to all competitors, his deliberate use of socioeconomic programs underscores a strategic focus on expanding opportunities for underrepresented businesses while maintaining mission-critical standards. SSgt Virgil’s primary procurement focus lies in Facilities Support Services (NAICS 561210), Commercial and Industrial Machinery Repair (NAICS 811310), and Educational Support Services (NAICS 611710), reflecting a broad spectrum of base sustainment needs—from facility operations and maintenance to training support and equipment servicing. His technical domain expertise spans infrastructure resilience, facility lifecycle management, and mission-enabling services critical to Air Force installation continuity.
