Jody McFarland

Jody McFarland serves as a key procurement professional within the FA3030 17 Cons Cc unit of the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing facility sustainment and infrastructure modernization contracts critical to operational readiness. Their work centers on acquiring services and products that maintain and upgrade essential building systems—including HVAC, electrical, and plumbing infrastructure—as well as grounds maintenance, specialized repairs, and facility upgrades. McFarland’s acquisitions directly support the Air Force’s mission to ensure safe, functional, and resilient installations, with a focus on long-term lifecycle management of base infrastructure. They handle a diverse portfolio of service-based contracts under FAR Part 12 and Part 36, often employing performance-based acquisition methods to ensure outcomes-driven delivery. McFarland maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, IMPERIAL ELECTRICAL CONTRACTING, LLC, DUNCAN MECHANICAL SERVICE, INC, and ACTION CONSTRUCTION AUSTIN LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, niche providers with proven capabilities in military facility maintenance, electrical systems, and mechanical services. The working relationships are characterized by repeat engagements, performance-based evaluations, and a focus on reliability and compliance with military installation standards. While the majority of acquisitions (71.4%) are conducted without set-asides, McFarland demonstrates a deliberate commitment to small business participation, with 28.6% of awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a balanced approach that prioritizes competition while actively enabling small business growth within the defense infrastructure sector. The procurement portfolio is heavily concentrated in NAICS 541611 (Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services), indicating a strong emphasis on facility planning, lifecycle analysis, and program management support. Additional focus areas include institutional furniture manufacturing, nonresidential building leasing, and medical equipment wholesale—reflecting a broad but mission-aligned scope that supports both operational and quality-of-life needs across Air Force installations.
