Matthew Burns

Matthew Burns serves as a Contracting Officer and Location Administrator for FA4613 90 Cons Pk under the Department of the Air Force, where he manages mission-critical procurement actions to sustain and modernize remote missile field infrastructure and launch facilities. His responsibilities include executing full lifecycle contracting for maintenance, engineering, and utility support services essential to nuclear deterrence operations. Burns oversees acquisitions for complex, geographically dispersed defense assets, ensuring compliance with federal regulations while prioritizing operational readiness and infrastructure resilience across austere environments. He maintains enduring relationships with key contractors including OLGOONIK SPECIALTY CONTRACTORS, LLC, AEROSPACE & COMMERCIAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLC, and SAFEWARE INC, who provide specialized technical services for facility sustainment, security systems, and mission-critical maintenance. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in defense infrastructure, remote site logistics, and high-reliability engineering solutions. Burns consistently engages contractors capable of operating under stringent security protocols and in isolated locations, fostering long-term collaboration grounded in performance reliability and regulatory adherence. Burns exhibits a strong commitment to small business participation, with over 30% of his awards designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, alongside targeted HUBZone and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-asides. While the majority of his acquisitions remain open to full and open competition, his deliberate use of socioeconomic authorities demonstrates a balanced approach to fostering competition and expanding opportunities for qualified small businesses in the national defense supply base. His procurement focus centers on NAICS codes 811310 (commercial and industrial machinery repair), 238220 (plumbing and HVAC contracting), 541360 (geophysical surveying), and 333120 (construction machinery manufacturing), reflecting a technical emphasis on facility maintenance, environmental systems, geospatial support, and heavy equipment servicing. These categories underscore his expertise in sustaining mission-critical infrastructure through specialized, high-integrity contracting solutions tailored to the unique demands of Air Force missile fields.
