Kevin Cockerill

Kevin Cockerill serves as a key procurement professional within the FA8903 organization of the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain and modernize critical Air Force infrastructure. His work directly supports the agency’s mission to ensure installation resilience, environmental compliance, and mission-critical facility readiness through integrated engineering and environmental services. Cockerill specializes in contracting for remediation and environmental restoration projects, overseeing the full lifecycle of acquisitions from requirement development to contract award and administration, with a strong emphasis on regulatory adherence and long-term operational sustainability. While specific contractor names are not publicly available, Cockerill’s procurement patterns indicate consistent engagement with environmental remediation specialists, engineering services firms, and technical consultants capable of addressing complex contamination scenarios under federal standards such as CERCLA and RCRA. His working relationships emphasize performance-based contracting, with a preference for vendors possessing proven expertise in soil and groundwater remediation, hazardous material abatement, and environmental site assessments. These partnerships are typically structured as cost-reimbursement or firm-fixed-price contracts tailored to high-risk, high-compliance projects. Cockerill maintains a 100% small business set-aside preference under FAR 19.5, reflecting a robust commitment to socioeconomic contracting. All acquisitions are reserved exclusively for small businesses, with a clear emphasis on supporting 8(a), HUBZone, and service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses (SDVOSBs) that meet the technical demands of environmental remediation. This pattern ensures broad participation from niche, mission-aligned vendors while advancing Department of Defense goals for equitable contracting. His procurement focus is exclusively on NAICS 562910 (Remediation Services), encompassing contaminated site cleanup, hazardous waste management, environmental monitoring, and restoration of degraded infrastructure. Cockerill’s technical expertise lies in managing complex environmental compliance projects requiring specialized knowledge of federal environmental regulations, geotechnical engineering, and long-term stewardship protocols.
