MAJ Andre Gatlin

MAJ Andre Gatlin serves as a key procurement lead within the 0411 Aq Hq Contract Augmented unit of the Department of the Army, responsible for managing facility sustainment and infrastructure modernization contracts critical to U.S. Army garrison operations, particularly at overseas installations such as USAG Humphreys and USFK. His role centers on ensuring mission-critical building systems—ranging from structural integrity to utility reliability—are maintained through timely and compliant acquisition actions. He oversees a diverse portfolio of construction, maintenance, and support services, primarily under firm-fixed-price and cost-reimbursement contract types, aligning with the Army’s installation resilience strategy and global force posture objectives. MAJ Gatlin maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors including GLOBAL SYSTEMIZED INDUSTRY, 09CLEAN CO., LTD, KOREA CONTAINER POOL CO., LTD, NOKHWACHANGJO, and GLOBAL COMPANY ALLIANCE CO., LTD., many of which are regional or Korea-based vendors with proven capability in military installation support. His procurement patterns reflect a preference for established partners with demonstrated performance in austere environments, often leveraging long-term service agreements and task-order contracting mechanisms to ensure continuity of operations across dynamic theater conditions. His contracting approach balances equal opportunity with targeted small business participation, with approximately half of his awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a deliberate commitment to fostering competitive small business engagement. While no formal 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB preferences dominate his portfolio, his consistent use of small business set-asides underscores a strategic alignment with DoD socioeconomic goals and the Army’s emphasis on inclusive supply chain development. MAJ Gatlin’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS categories 721110 (lodging for transient personnel), 238150 (glass and glazing), 236220 (commercial/institutional construction), and 238330 (flooring), indicating deep expertise in facility renovation, maintenance, and modular infrastructure support. He frequently procures services related to building envelope integrity, interior fit-outs, and utility system upgrades—technical domains essential to sustaining operational readiness in forward-deployed and high-traffic military installations.
