Kenneth Winn

Kenneth H. Winn serves as a key procurement lead within the FA3099 47 Conf Cc unit of the Department of the Air Force, supporting the sustainment and modernization of critical airfield and installation infrastructure. Though his official title is not listed, his procurement activities are central to ensuring operational readiness through timely acquisition of specialized construction, engineering, and logistical support services. He manages a diverse portfolio of contracts aligned with facility resilience, capital improvements, and mission-critical base functionality, frequently engaging in negotiated acquisitions under FAR Part 15 to meet urgent operational demands and long-term infrastructure goals. Winn maintains consistent working relationships with AR6 Construction & Engineering, LLC and Horsepower Geospatial LLC, both of which provide specialized construction, geospatial analysis, and infrastructure support services. These partnerships reflect a pattern of reliance on niche vendors with proven technical capabilities in military-grade facility engineering and terrain mapping. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, often leveraging task orders and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) mechanisms to ensure agile response to dynamic installation needs. His procurement portfolio reflects a balanced approach to socioeconomic contracting, with approximately one-third of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, indicating a deliberate commitment to small business participation. While no other set-aside categories dominate, the consistent use of small business set-asides demonstrates alignment with Air Force goals to foster vendor diversity and enhance competition among qualified small entities. Notably, Winn’s acquisitions are heavily concentrated in NAICS 339920 (Sporting and Athletic Goods Manufacturing) and 334310 (Audio and Video Equipment Manufacturing), suggesting procurement of specialized training, simulation, and safety equipment for airfield operations and personnel readiness. The inclusion of NAICS 611692 (Automobile Driving Schools) further indicates support for base transportation and mobility training programs. His expertise lies at the intersection of facility sustainment and operational enablers, blending construction contracting with niche technical procurement to maintain Air Force mission continuity.
