Katrina D. Lazare

Katrina D. Lazare serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA3016 502 Contracting Clinic of the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions to sustain Air Force installation readiness. She manages a diverse portfolio of service contracts focused on facility maintenance, medical support, and infrastructure-related services, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and aligning procurements with operational needs. Her work directly supports the agency’s strategic priorities in modernizing medical systems, maintaining airfield functionality, and enhancing communications infrastructure through timely and compliant contracting actions. Lazare maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including PERRY MANAGEMENT CORP OF SOUTH DAKOTA, L.L.C, WILLIAM T BROOKS & ASSOCIATES INC, CITADEL FEDERAL SOLUTIONS LLC, NEXLEGACY LLC, and AJ COMMERCIAL SERVICES, INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven capabilities in specialized maintenance and emergency response services. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear statement of work development, and rigorous contract administration to ensure contractor accountability and mission continuity. Her procurement strategy reflects a balanced commitment to socioeconomic objectives, with approximately half of her awards issued under total small business set-asides per FAR 19.5, and the other half competed without set-aside. This pattern demonstrates a deliberate effort to foster competition while actively promoting opportunities for small businesses without compromising acquisition flexibility or mission requirements. Lazare’s primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 562991 (Septic Tank and Related Services) and NAICS 621910 (Ambulance Services), indicating deep expertise in environmental health infrastructure and emergency medical support systems. She routinely procures specialized services such as waste disposal, on-site sanitation, mobile medical transport, and emergency response logistics—critical functions that underpin the operational resilience of Air Force installations. Her technical domain knowledge ensures that contract requirements accurately reflect the unique demands of military medical and facility sustainment environments.
