Lt Elizabeth Caballero

Lt Elizabeth Caballero serves as a key procurement professional within the FA4613 90 Cons Pk unit of the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain critical missile field and launch facility infrastructure. Her role centers on ensuring the operational readiness of remote nuclear deterrence assets through the procurement of maintenance, security, and technical support services. She oversees contracts for mission-critical infrastructure sustainment, including utilities, command systems, and physical security enhancements, aligning all acquisitions with Air Force-wide resilience and modernization objectives. Her work directly supports the continuity of strategic deterrence operations across geographically dispersed and highly secure installations. Lt Caballero maintains consistent contracting relationships with specialized vendors including OLGOONIK SPECIALTY CONTRACTORS, LLC, AEROSPACE & COMMERCIAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLC, and SAFEWARE INC. These partners provide niche expertise in industrial equipment maintenance, aerospace-grade technical support, and physical security systems—capabilities essential to sustaining hardened launch facilities. Her procurement approach favors long-term, performance-based service agreements with contractors possessing proven experience in remote, high-security environments, emphasizing reliability, compliance, and rapid response capabilities under austere conditions. She exhibits a strict commitment to small business participation, directing 100% of her acquisitions toward total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to cultivate a resilient small business industrial base capable of supporting sensitive defense infrastructure. All contracts are structured to maximize opportunities for small, locally rooted firms with relevant technical credentials, reinforcing both mission effectiveness and socioeconomic goals. Her procurement focus is dominated by NAICS 811310 for commercial and industrial machinery repair and maintenance, reflecting the need to sustain aging mechanical and electromechanical systems in launch facilities. She also regularly procures security systems services (NAICS 561621) and, notably, funeral home services (NAICS 812210), which support ceremonial and logistical functions tied to military personnel stationed at remote sites. This unique blend underscores her technical expertise in managing mission-essential services across both operational and ancillary domains.
