Kyle B. Lancour

Kyle B. Lancour serves as a Contracting Officer at the Headquarters of Air Combat Command’s Acquisition Management Integration Center (FA4890), where he plays a pivotal role in securing mission-critical capabilities that sustain and modernize air dominance platforms. Responsible for managing full lifecycle acquisitions, he specializes in procuring advanced training systems, command and control infrastructure, and technical services essential to pilot readiness and tactical communications. His portfolio emphasizes the integration of logistics, maintenance, and engineering support to ensure operational continuity for combat-coded forces, aligning directly with the Department of the Air Force’s strategic modernization goals. Lancour maintains established working relationships with key contractors including VETPRIDE-EMI MAINTENANCE SOLUTIONS, LLC, MILTRAIN JV II LLC, and JBW FEDITC JV LLC, reflecting a preference for joint ventures and specialized service providers with proven expertise in defense logistics and training system sustainment. His contracting approach prioritizes performance-based outcomes and long-term vendor partnerships, fostering collaboration on complex, multi-year technical support contracts that require deep domain knowledge in aerospace maintenance and simulation environments. While the majority of his acquisitions (83.3%) are conducted as full and open competitions, he consistently allocates 16.7% of his portfolio to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to expanding small business participation without reliance on 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB-specific programs. His socioeconomic strategy emphasizes capability over certification, ensuring competitive rigor while enabling agile, responsive vendor engagement. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 423120 (Motor Vehicle Supplies and New Parts Merchant Wholesalers), reflecting demand for specialized aviation ground support equipment and spare parts distribution, complemented by NAICS 336390 (Other Motor Vehicle Parts Manufacturing) for custom component fabrication and NAICS 541614 (Process, Physical Distribution, and Logistics Consulting Services) for supply chain optimization. This technical profile underscores his expertise in integrated logistics and sustainment engineering within the defense aerospace domain.
