Kelly Lodi

Kelly Lodi serves as a secondary procurement contact within the FA2835 AFLCMC Hanscom PZI, supporting the Department of the Air Force’s mission to sustain and modernize critical military infrastructure. While not the primary contracting officer, Lodi plays a vital role in facilitating acquisition planning, vendor coordination, and contract administration for facility resilience and utility system upgrades. Their work ensures alignment with strategic priorities including energy-efficient building systems, secure communications infrastructure, and integrated base support services. Lodi typically handles complex, multi-disciplinary acquisitions requiring coordination across engineering, environmental, and operations teams, often managing task orders under existing IDIQs and blanket purchase agreements. Lodi maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of specialized contractors, including Split Excavating, Inc., Gannon & Scott Phoenix Inc., and Progexa Corp., each bringing niche expertise in site preparation, environmental compliance, and technical testing services. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven experience in military installation environments and regulatory adherence. The working relationship pattern is characterized by repeat engagements, collaborative pre-solicitation outreach, and performance-based contract management to ensure mission-critical deliverables are met with operational reliability. Lodi demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 55.6% of acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster competition among small firms and expand economic opportunity within the defense industrial base. While no other socioeconomic categories dominate, the consistent use of small business set-asides underscores a proactive approach to meeting federal goals for small business contracting and enhancing vendor diversity. The procurement portfolio is heavily concentrated in NAICS 238910 (site preparation), 334519 (specialized measuring and controlling device manufacturing), and 541380 (testing laboratories), indicating deep technical expertise in infrastructure readiness, sensor calibration, and environmental compliance testing. Lodi’s work supports the acquisition of precision instrumentation, hazardous and nonhazardous waste management services, and industrial machinery maintenance—all critical to sustaining operational readiness at Hanscom Air Force Base.
