Maki Kodama

Maki Kodama serves as a Contracting Officer for the FA5209 374th Contracting Squadron under the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing mission-critical acquisitions that sustain operational readiness at U.S. military installations in Japan. Her portfolio centers on procurement of logistics, transportation, and facility support services essential to daily base operations, including infrastructure maintenance, equipment movement, and rail support activities. She executes full lifecycle contracting actions—from solicitation through award and administration—ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and Air Force-specific requirements. Her work directly enables the agency’s mission to maintain secure, functional, and compliant environments for personnel and equipment across geographically dispersed units. Kodama maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including KOTRACK INCORPORATED, BRANSCOME OPERATING, LLC, MOTOROLA SOLUTIONS, INC., AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, and KOTSUKENSETSU CO., LTD. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, geographically capable vendors with proven performance in military logistics and facility support. She engages primarily with established firms capable of delivering complex, time-sensitive services under strict security and operational constraints, often requiring international coordination and local regulatory compliance in Japan. Kodama’s contracting portfolio reflects a 100% non-set-aside approach, with no utilization of 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic set-asides. Her acquisitions prioritize mission necessity and operational continuity over socioeconomic preferences, aligning with the agency’s focus on immediate readiness and reliability. While small business participation is not formally targeted, she ensures all procurements adhere to fair and open competition principles under FAR Part 6. Her primary NAICS focus lies in General Freight Trucking (484110), Specialized Freight Trucking (484220), and Support Activities for Rail Transportation (488210), reflecting deep expertise in tactical and strategic ground logistics. She procures services involving equipment transport, maintenance vehicle movement, rail yard support, and intermodal coordination—domains requiring precise scheduling, security protocols, and cross-functional coordination with military units and host-nation authorities.
