Kevin E Thomsen

Kevin E. Thomsen serves as a Contract Specialist within the Space Systems Command’s FA4610 30 Cons Pk facility, supporting the Department of Defense’s mission to sustain critical space launch and test infrastructure at Vandenberg Space Force Base. He manages a diverse portfolio of procurement actions focused on facility maintenance, utilities resilience, security services, and specialized technical support essential to national security space operations. His work ensures operational readiness through timely and compliant contract execution under FAR and DFARS guidelines, with a strong emphasis on infrastructure modernization and mission-critical sustainment. Thomsen maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, DIVERSE PEST MANAGEMENT, TECH O. R., LLC, and DARBONNIER TACTICAL SUPPLY LLC, reflecting a preference for niche service providers with proven capabilities in site development, pest control, technical support, and tactical logistics. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and vendor reliability, fostering long-term partnerships with firms that demonstrate agility and domain-specific expertise in defense-environment operations. A staunch advocate for small business participation, Thomsen consistently applies Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, directing approximately 80% of his acquisitions to small businesses. His socioeconomic contracting patterns prioritize inclusive competition, enabling small disadvantaged, service-disabled veteran-owned, and other certified small entities to compete for mission-critical services, reinforcing DoD’s commitment to equitable access and economic resilience. His primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 713990 (amusement and recreation services), which supports recreational infrastructure at military installations, alongside significant activity in janitorial services (561720), painting and wall covering (238320), and dental services (621210)—the latter reflecting on-base medical support needs. This unique blend underscores his expertise in managing non-traditional defense contracts that sustain daily operations and quality-of-life infrastructure essential to mission continuity.
