Matthew D. Durbin

Matthew D. Durbin serves as a Contracting Officer with the 27th Sustainment Contracting Squadron (FA4855) under the Department of the Air Force, where he manages mission-critical acquisitions to sustain air base infrastructure and operational readiness. His portfolio focuses on construction, facility systems, and secure support services essential to maintaining the functional integrity of Air Force installations. Durbin routinely handles complex procurement actions under FAR Part 36 for building systems, including HVAC, wastewater treatment, and flooring, as well as security and communications infrastructure. He ensures compliance with DoD acquisition policies while aligning procurements with strategic modernization goals for base resilience and mission continuity. Durbin maintains a strong working relationship with ALTUS TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS LLC, a primary contractor delivering integrated facility and technical services. His procurement approach emphasizes collaborative vendor partnerships with firms possessing specialized expertise in military-grade infrastructure and secure systems. He consistently engages contractors capable of meeting stringent DoD standards for quality, timelines, and security compliance, fostering long-term performance-based relationships that support sustained operational capability. A pronounced commitment to socioeconomic contracting is evident in Durbin’s patterns, with HUBZone set-asides accounting for half of his awards and total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5 comprising an additional quarter. This reflects a deliberate strategy to prioritize economically disadvantaged communities and small business participation, aligning with Air Force mandates to expand opportunities for certified small, HUBZone, and service-disabled veteran-owned firms. His primary NAICS focus centers on 238330 (Flooring Contractors), reflecting extensive procurement of interior construction and renovation services for base facilities. He also actively acquires services under 561621 (Security Systems Services) and 339920 (Sporting and Athletic Goods Manufacturing), demonstrating expertise in both physical infrastructure and morale, welfare, and recreation (MWR) support systems critical to Air Force personnel readiness.
