Kevin A Ward

Kevin A. Ward supports the Department of the Air Force’s FA4613 90 Cons Pk mission by managing critical procurement activities focused on sustaining and modernizing remote missile field infrastructure and launch facility systems. His role involves executing complex acquisitions to ensure operational readiness, security, and resilience of nuclear deterrence assets, including command facilities, utilities, and perimeter systems. He handles a diverse portfolio of service-based contracts requiring technical precision, compliance with defense security standards, and coordination with engineering and logistics teams to meet mission-critical timelines. Ward maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including OLGOONIK SPECIALTY CONTRACTORS, LLC, AEROSPACE & COMMERCIAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLC, and SAFEWARE INC., who deliver specialized engineering, security, and facility maintenance services. His procurement patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven expertise in defense infrastructure, particularly those capable of operating in remote, high-security environments. These partnerships are characterized by long-term performance reliability and adherence to stringent DoD compliance protocols. His contracting approach prioritizes small business participation, with 37.5% of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a deliberate commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals. While no set-aside programs such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB dominate his portfolio, he actively leverages the small business category to foster innovation and capacity building among qualified vendors. Ward’s primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 541611 (management consulting services) and 611430 (professional training), underscoring his emphasis on workforce development and operational process optimization. He also procures electrical installation services (238210), facility support services (511210), and specialized maintenance (811192), demonstrating a multidisciplinary approach to sustaining complex, geographically dispersed defense infrastructure. His expertise lies at the intersection of mission assurance, regulatory compliance, and contractor performance management in high-stakes national security environments.
