Kylie Hager

Kylie Hager serves as a Contracting Officer for the Department of the Air Force at FA2517 21 Cons Bldg 350, where she manages mission-critical procurement activities supporting infrastructure modernization and operational readiness. Her portfolio focuses on acquiring secure, resilient facility systems, including advanced electronic and communication technologies, fire safety enhancements, and integrated IT infrastructure. She executes full lifecycle contracting actions—from market research and solicitation to award and closeout—ensuring compliance with FAR, DFARS, and Air Force-specific acquisition policies. Her work directly enables the sustainment of defense-critical installations through timely, compliant, and technically sound acquisitions. Kylie maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including ASTERI CONSULTING SERVICES LLC, AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, ARHAB LLC, and PRIMEPRO BUSINESS SOLUTIONS LLC. These partnerships span systems integration, facility construction, security services, and IT modernization, reflecting a preference for established vendors with proven capability in defense environments. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear statement of work development, and rigorous contractor accountability to ensure mission alignment and operational continuity. While the majority of her acquisitions are conducted under open competition (72.7%), she actively supports small business participation through Total Small Business Set-Asides (27.3%), aligning with FAR 19.5 requirements. Her socioeconomic strategy prioritizes broad-based small business engagement without reliance on specialized set-asides like 8(a) or HUBZone, demonstrating a balanced commitment to competition and capability development across the small business community. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 423430 (computer and peripheral equipment wholesale), 541511 (custom computer programming), and 532420 (office equipment leasing), with additional emphasis on security systems services and computer training. She specializes in procuring commercial-off-the-shelf hardware, bespoke software solutions, and integrated IT support services critical to maintaining secure, interoperable Air Force facility environments.
