Janet Benitez serves as a key procurement professional within the Department of the Air Force at FA2860 316 Cons Pk, supporting the sustainment of critical infrastructure and operational readiness at Joint Base Andrews. She manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions centered on security systems, communications hardware, audiovisual equipment, and facility maintenance services essential to command, control, and communications (C3) operations. Her role ensures alignment with Air Force mission priorities by executing contracts that enhance base resilience, improve situational awareness, and maintain mission-critical facilities under strict compliance with federal acquisition regulations. Benitez maintains consistent working relationships with contractors such as ZERO WASTE SOLUTIONS, INC, SENECA MINERAL COMPANY, and PELICAN CHEMICALS INC., reflecting a focus on environmental compliance, hazardous material management, and specialized facility support services. Her contracting patterns indicate a preference for vendors with proven expertise in industrial maintenance, waste handling, and building support operations, fostering long-term partnerships grounded in reliability and regulatory adherence. These vendor relationships are strategically cultivated to ensure continuity of essential services across high-security operational environments. Her procurement strategy reflects an even split between open competition and Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals. She consistently prioritizes small business participation without favoring specific categories like 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, instead emphasizing capability and capacity across the small business spectrum. This balanced approach ensures competitive rigor while expanding opportunities for qualified small firms supporting federal infrastructure needs. Benitez’s primary NAICS focus includes commercial and industrial machinery repair (811310), other waste collection (562119), building support services (561790), and wood office furniture manufacturing (337211), indicating a broad yet targeted approach to facility sustainment. She procures services ranging from HVAC and security system maintenance to waste disposal and furniture procurement, underscoring her expertise in integrated facility operations and mission-enabling logistics within a high-security military context.
