Kayla Lassalle

Kayla Lassalle serves as a key procurement professional within the FA4855 27 SoCons Lgc, a unit of the Department of the Air Force responsible for sustaining critical air base infrastructure and operational readiness. She manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions spanning facility construction, communications systems, and mission-critical support services, ensuring alignment with Air Force modernization priorities such as HVAC upgrades, wastewater treatment modernization, and secure infrastructure resilience. Her work directly supports the agency’s mission to maintain combat-ready installations through timely, compliant, and technically sound contracting actions. Lassalle maintains a consistent working relationship with ALTUS TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS LLC, a primary contractor delivering specialized engineering and technical services for air base systems. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven expertise in defense infrastructure, while also fostering collaborative, performance-based partnerships that emphasize quality assurance, lifecycle support, and rapid response capabilities. She engages contractors through multiple contract vehicles, including indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) and fixed-price arrangements, ensuring flexibility and accountability. Her procurement strategy reflects a balanced approach to socioeconomic goals, with equal weighting between open competitions and Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. She actively promotes small business participation without relying on specialized set-asides like 8(a) or HUBZone, indicating a focus on capability over certification, and a commitment to broad-based competition among qualified small firms. Lassalle’s primary NAICS focus includes Power and Communication Line Construction (237130), Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing (333912), and Institutional Furniture Manufacturing (337127), reflecting her oversight of mission-critical utilities, environmental control systems, and base facility furnishings. She also manages acquisitions in communications infrastructure and specialized equipment manufacturing, demonstrating technical fluency across civil engineering, mechanical systems, and defense-unique procurement domains. Her expertise lies in aligning commercial off-the-shelf solutions with military operational requirements.
