Jascanel Ferreras

Jascanel Ferreras serves as a contracting professional within the FA8501 Opl Contracting AFSC/PZIO under the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing acquisition programs that sustain critical infrastructure and operational systems at Air Force installations. Their work centers on securing physical and cyber-physical assets, including access control, surveillance, environmental control, and communication systems essential to base-wide readiness. Ferreras handles complex, mission-critical procurements under FAR Part 13 and Part 15, often involving integrated facility services, technical engineering support, and specialized equipment procurement to ensure continuous operational capability across high-priority installations. Ferreras maintains consistent contracting relationships with key vendors including Drake Consulting LLC and Visionary Construction Inc., both of which provide specialized facility modernization, systems integration, and infrastructure support services. These partnerships reflect a preference for established contractors with proven expertise in military-grade environmental and security systems, indicating a pattern of awarding performance-based contracts to vendors with demonstrated capability in complex, mission-sensitive environments. The working relationships emphasize technical compliance, lifecycle support, and adherence to Air Force installation standards. Ferreras exhibits a strong orientation toward open competition, with 76.7% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions, while maintaining a meaningful commitment to small business participation—23.3% of contracts are awarded under total small business set-asides per FAR 19.5. Although no specific socioeconomic categories like 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB are dominant, the consistent use of small business set-asides signals a deliberate effort to foster vendor diversity and enhance competition within the small business community. The procurement portfolio is heavily focused on NAICS 513210 (Software Publishers) and 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), reflecting a strategic emphasis on cybersecurity-enabled facility management systems and custom software solutions for surveillance and control infrastructure. Additional activity in NAICS 334515 (Instrument Manufacturing for Electrical Signals) and 332312 (Fabricated Structural Metal Manufacturing) underscores technical expertise in procuring specialized sensors, embedded systems, and structural components critical to hardened facility operations.
