Linda L. Kyle

Linda L. Kyle serves as a Contracting Officer for FA4855, 27th Security Forces Squadron under the Department of the Air Force, where she manages mission-critical acquisitions to sustain air base infrastructure and operational readiness. Her portfolio encompasses construction, facility services, and secure communications systems essential to maintaining functional and resilient airfield operations. She oversees the full lifecycle of contracts—from market research and solicitation to award and performance management—ensuring compliance with FAR and DFARS while aligning procurements with strategic modernization goals such as wastewater treatment, HVAC upgrades, and facility maintenance. Her work directly supports the Air Force’s imperative to modernize physical infrastructure and ensure uninterrupted mission capability. Linda maintains a consistent working relationship with ALTUS TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS LLC, a key vendor delivering specialized technical and facility support services. Her contracting approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships grounded in performance reliability and compliance, often engaging contractors with proven expertise in air base operations and infrastructure sustainment. She fosters collaborative relationships with vendors capable of meeting stringent security and operational standards, prioritizing those with demonstrated capacity in mission-critical environments. Her procurement strategy reflects a balanced commitment to small business participation, with over 38% of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 and an additional 7.7% allocated to HUBZone firms. While the majority of her acquisitions remain open to all competitors, her deliberate use of socioeconomic set-asides underscores a strong dedication to expanding opportunities for underserved small businesses in defense-related infrastructure sectors. Linda’s primary NAICS focus areas include sewage treatment facilities (221320), janitorial services (561720), airport operations (488119), and packing and crating (488991), reflecting her specialization in facility sustainment and base support services.
