Jose De Pascalis

Jose G. de Pascalis serves as a key procurement lead within the Department of the Air Force’s FA5682 organization, responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain and modernize expeditionary air base infrastructure and tactical communications systems. His work directly supports the agency’s mission to enhance global airpower projection through resilient base operations, secure field communications, and facility readiness initiatives. He routinely handles complex construction, environmental services, and facility support contracts under FAR Part 15 procedures, with a focus on performance-based acquisition strategies that align with Air Force installation modernization goals. His portfolio emphasizes mission-critical infrastructure resilience and operational continuity in austere environments. De Pascalis maintains consistent working relationships with core contractors including AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED, and LIVINGWORKS EDUCATION USA INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven expertise in expeditionary construction, tactical communications support, and personnel readiness training. His contracting approach prioritizes reliability, compliance with military standards, and rapid deployment capabilities, often leveraging indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) vehicles and task order competitions to meet dynamic operational demands. His procurement patterns show a strong preference for open competition, with 95.7% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions, indicating a focus on mission urgency and technical capability over socioeconomic preferences. While small business participation is minimal at 4.3%, it is primarily channeled through Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, suggesting selective but intentional inclusion when competitive conditions permit. His primary NAICS focus areas include Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (236220), Hazardous Waste Treatment and Disposal (562211), and Solid Waste Collection (562111), reflecting a heavy emphasis on base infrastructure sustainment and environmental compliance. He also routinely procures plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning services (238220) and specialized building maintenance (561790), demonstrating deep technical expertise in expeditionary facility operations and lifecycle support for forward-deployed air bases.
