Kristin Baily

Kristin Baily serves as a Purchasing Agent for the Space Systems Command’s FA4610 30 Cons Pk facility under the Department of the Air Force, where she manages procurement activities critical to sustaining national security space infrastructure at Vandenberg Space Force Base. Her role centers on acquiring goods and services that maintain operational readiness, including facility maintenance, utilities systems, security enhancements, and technical support services. She executes acquisitions under FAR Part 13 streamlined procedures and full and open competition frameworks, ensuring compliance with DoD and Air Force procurement policies while aligning with the agency’s strategic modernization goals for aging infrastructure. Baily maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors specializing in facility sustainment and mission-critical support, including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC for site development, DIVERSE PEST MANAGEMENT for environmental compliance services, TECH O. R., LLC for specialized technical support, KING FREIGHT LLC for logistics, and DARBONNIER TACTICAL SUPPLY LLC for tactical equipment. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven experience in secure, high-reliability environments and a track record of performance at military installations. She demonstrates an unwavering commitment to small business participation, with 100% of her acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, ensuring equitable access for qualified small businesses. Her contracting patterns prioritize socioeconomic programs that empower small, disadvantaged, and service-disabled veteran-owned firms, reinforcing the Air Force’s mandate to foster resilience and innovation through diverse vendor engagement. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 561790 (other services to buildings and dwellings), with significant activity in 238220 (plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning contractors), 423730 (HVAC equipment wholesalers), and niche areas such as 334511 (aeronautical systems manufacturing) and 517919 (other telecommunications services). This reflects deep expertise in facility systems integration, environmental controls, and mission-enabling infrastructure support for space launch and test operations.
