Lisa R. Smith

Lisa R. Smith serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA4460 19 Cons Pka unit of the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a critical role in executing facility sustainment and infrastructure modernization acquisitions. Her responsibilities include managing the full lifecycle of construction and maintenance contracts, ensuring compliance with FAR regulations, and aligning procurements with the agency’s mission to maintain operational readiness across Air Force installations. She routinely handles complex, multi-year contracts for commercial and institutional building construction, as well as specialized mechanical systems, prioritizing timely delivery of mission-critical facility services that support personnel, equipment, and base infrastructure resilience. Smith maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including DREW INVESTMENT GROUP, LLC and L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED, both of which have demonstrated reliable performance in delivering facility upgrades and utility system enhancements. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting, with a focus on quality assurance, schedule adherence, and post-award oversight. She cultivates long-term vendor partnerships grounded in technical competence and compliance, often re-engaging contractors with proven track records in Air Force installation environments. Her contracting portfolio reflects a balanced commitment to socioeconomic goals, with approximately half of her acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, and the other half open to all competitors. This deliberate distribution underscores her dedication to expanding opportunities for small businesses while maintaining competitive rigor. She actively supports small business participation without favoring specific socioeconomic categories, ensuring broad access while meeting mission needs. Smith’s primary technical focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction) and 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), reflecting her specialization in facility infrastructure projects. She procures services related to structural renovations, HVAC system upgrades, plumbing retrofits, and utility system modernizations, demonstrating deep expertise in construction contract administration within federal military facility contexts.
