Maxine A. Gallegos serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA4855 27th Security Forces Contracting Squadron under the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions that sustain air base infrastructure and operational readiness. She manages a diverse portfolio of construction, facility modernization, and secure communications contracts, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurements with strategic Air Force priorities such as HVAC system upgrades, wastewater treatment enhancements, and resilient communications infrastructure. Her work directly supports the agency’s mission to maintain mission-essential facilities through timely, compliant, and technically sound contracting actions. Gallegos maintains a strong working relationship with ALTUS TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS LLC, a trusted vendor frequently engaged for specialized technical services related to facility systems and infrastructure support. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for long-term, performance-based partnerships with contractors demonstrating proven expertise in military-grade construction and maintenance operations. She actively collaborates with industry partners to ensure technical compliance, schedule adherence, and quality assurance across complex, multi-year task orders. A staunch advocate for small business participation, Gallegos consistently prioritizes socioeconomic set-asides, with approximately 60% of her acquisitions designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and 40% reserved specifically for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses. Her contracting approach reflects a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for disadvantaged and veteran-owned firms, integrating socioeconomic goals into every phase of the acquisition lifecycle. While specific NAICS codes are not available, her portfolio centers on facility infrastructure and mission support services, including building systems integration, environmental controls, and secure communications hardware. Her technical expertise lies in procuring complex, mission-critical systems that ensure the operational resilience of Air Force installations, with a focus on sustainable, code-compliant, and defense-grade solutions.
