Marilyn Menjivar

Marilyn Menjivar serves as a key procurement professional within the FA4418 628 Cons Pk unit of the Department of the Air Force, supporting infrastructure resilience and operational readiness at Joint Base Charleston and associated installations. She manages a diverse portfolio of construction, maintenance, and mission-enabling acquisitions, ensuring compliance with federal contracting regulations while advancing the agency’s strategic priorities in facility modernization, utility system reliability, and environmental sustainability. Her work directly enables the Air Force’s ability to sustain airfield operations, secure critical infrastructure, and deliver mission-critical services through timely and compliant contract actions. She maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors specializing in commercial construction, environmental services, and specialized military support. Key partners include MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC for facility upgrades, PROTECT KITCHEN EXHAUST CLEANING, LLC for hazardous ventilation maintenance, ACCESS PORTABLE TOILETS INC for temporary sanitation solutions, and ML Armaments LLC for security-related equipment. These partnerships reflect a focus on niche, high-reliability vendors capable of delivering complex, mission-sensitive services under stringent DoD standards. Menjivar demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with over half of her acquisitions set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5. Her contracting patterns consistently prioritize total small business set-asides, reflecting a deliberate strategy to expand economic opportunity while leveraging the agility and innovation of smaller firms. While no other socioeconomic categories are dominant, her portfolio shows a clear preference for contracting with firms that bring specialized capabilities and local operational familiarity. Her procurement focus centers on NAICS 236220 for commercial and institutional building construction, complemented by niche categories including 336413 for aircraft support components and 331420 for copper alloy manufacturing. She routinely acquires services and products related to facility construction, environmental systems, and specialized military hardware, demonstrating technical expertise in infrastructure lifecycle management and defense-specific supply chain requirements.
