Jeffrey E Powell

Jeffrey E. Powell serves as a Contracting Officer within the Space Systems Command’s FA4610 30 Cons Pk facility under the Department of the Air Force, where he manages procurement activities critical to sustaining national security space operations at Vandenberg Space Force Base. His portfolio centers on facilities support, infrastructure resilience, and specialized technical services essential to maintaining launch and test site readiness. Powell oversees the full lifecycle of contract actions—from solicitation and award to administration and closeout—ensuring compliance with FAR, DFARS, and Air Force-specific acquisition policies. He specializes in complex, mission-critical procurements that support facility maintenance, utilities modernization, security systems, and operational infrastructure upgrades. Powell maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors, including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC for site development and civil works, DIVERSE PEST MANAGEMENT for environmental compliance services, TECH O. R., LLC for technical support, KING FREIGHT LLC for logistics and transportation, and DARBONNIER TACTICAL SUPPLY LLC for specialized supply chain solutions. These partnerships reflect a pattern of engagement with vendors possessing proven capability in high-reliability, mission-essential environments, often requiring security clearances and adherence to strict operational protocols. His contracting approach prioritizes small business participation, with 45% of awards directed toward small business set-asides, including a notable 5% allocation to service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses (SDVOSB). While the majority of acquisitions are unrestricted, his consistent use of Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 demonstrates a deliberate strategy to foster competition and expand the industrial base supporting national security infrastructure. Powell’s primary NAICS focus areas include 561210 (Facilities Support Services), which accounts for nearly one-fifth of his portfolio, alongside specialized services in automotive repair (811121), other computer-related services (541519), and professional technical services (541990). His expertise lies in procuring integrated facility maintenance, environmental compliance, and mission-critical technical support services that ensure the operational continuity of space launch and test infrastructure.
