John S Rogers

John S. Rogers serves as a Contract Officer for the Department of the Air Force’s FA5205 35 Cons Pk unit, where he manages mission-critical procurement activities supporting airfield and base infrastructure readiness. His responsibilities include soliciting, awarding, and administering contracts for advanced radio and wireless communication systems, auxiliary aircraft components, and facility sustainment services. He plays a pivotal role in ensuring operational continuity across domestic and deployed installations by aligning acquisition strategies with Air Force logistics and communications requirements. Rogers specializes in complex, technical procurements requiring compliance with FAR and DFARS regulations, often coordinating with engineering and operational stakeholders to define performance-based specifications. Rogers maintains established working relationships with key contractors including LAVISH LIFE TECHNOLOGIES LLC and AMERICAN ENGINEERING CORPORATION, both of which provide specialized engineering and technical support services. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for repeat vendors with proven performance in delivering mission-critical communications infrastructure and maintenance solutions. These partnerships are typically formed through competitive sealed bidding and negotiated contracts under full and open competition, with a focus on reliability, technical expertise, and timely delivery. While the majority of his acquisitions proceed under full and open competition (66.7%), Rogers consistently allocates one-third of his portfolio to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to small business participation. He does not currently utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, but actively encourages small business capability development through clear solicitation language and post-award performance monitoring. Notably, Rogers’s procurement activity is exclusively categorized under NAICS 624310 (Vocational Rehabilitation Services), indicating a unique and specialized focus on contracting for workforce development, training, and technical support services that enhance personnel readiness and operational sustainability. His expertise lies in bridging infrastructure needs with human capital solutions, ensuring that maintenance and communications teams are equipped with the training and tools required for mission success.
