Macy E Wester

SSgt Macy E. Wester serves as a contracting specialist within the FA3016 502 Contracting Clinic under the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions to sustain Air Force installation readiness. Her portfolio focuses on facility maintenance, environmental services, and operational support contracts that ensure the functionality, safety, and modernization of airfield and base infrastructure. She manages a diverse range of procurement actions under FAR Part 13 and Part 15, primarily utilizing simplified acquisition procedures and competitive sealed bidding to meet urgent operational requirements while maintaining strict compliance with federal contracting standards. SSgt Wester maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including PERRY MANAGEMENT CORP OF SOUTH DAKOTA, L.L.C, WILLIAM T BROOKS & ASSOCIATES INC, CITADEL FEDERAL SOLUTIONS LLC, NEXLEGACY LLC, and AJ COMMERCIAL SERVICES, INC. These vendors provide specialized services in site preparation, temporary staffing, janitorial operations, and nonhazardous waste management. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting, with a preference for established vendors with proven track records in military installation support environments, fostering reliable, long-term partnerships grounded in quality and timeliness. While the majority of her acquisitions are conducted without set-asides—reflecting operational urgency and broad vendor eligibility—she consistently allocates 25% of her portfolio to Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This demonstrates a deliberate commitment to expanding small business participation across key service categories, ensuring equitable access for qualified small firms while maintaining mission readiness. Her primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 238910 (Site Preparation), 561320 (Temporary Help Services), 561720 (Janitorial Services), and 562219 (Nonhazardous Waste Disposal). These categories reflect her expertise in sustaining day-to-day installation operations through integrated facility and environmental support services, aligning closely with Air Force priorities for clean, safe, and efficiently managed bases.
