Juanita A. Rodriguez

Juanita A. Rodriguez serves as a Contracts Specialist within the FA3099 47 Conf Cc under the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical procurement actions that sustain airfield and facility infrastructure across Air Force installations. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of construction and engineering contracts, ensuring compliance with FAR and DFARS regulations, and aligning acquisitions with strategic priorities in operational readiness and infrastructure resilience. She routinely handles complex, high-stakes procurements for civil works, heavy construction, and engineering services essential to maintaining aviation operational capability and base-wide functionality. Rodriguez maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including AR6 CONSTRUCTION & ENGINEERING, LLC and HORSEPOWER GEOSPATIAL LLC, reflecting a preference for established vendors with proven expertise in heavy civil infrastructure and geospatial support services. Her contracting patterns indicate a reliance on firms capable of delivering specialized technical solutions in airfield maintenance, earthwork, and surveying, often under time-sensitive schedules to support mission continuity. These partnerships are characterized by repeat engagements and a focus on performance-based outcomes. Her procurement strategy prioritizes broad market access, with 66.7% of acquisitions conducted as unrestricted competitions and 33.3% structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. While she does not currently utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, her consistent use of small business set-asides demonstrates a deliberate commitment to fostering competition and expanding opportunities for qualified small contractors in the civil construction sector. Rodriguez’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction), which accounts for two-thirds of her portfolio, alongside significant activity in NAICS 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction) and NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services). She specializes in acquiring services related to airfield pavement rehabilitation, drainage systems, utility relocation, and geospatial surveying—domains requiring technical precision and adherence to military construction standards.
