Mikhail L. Andrade

Mikhail L. Andrade serves as a key procurement lead within the FA4528 5 Cons unit of the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain and modernize critical infrastructure at Air Force installations. His work centers on facility construction, building systems integration, and operational support services, with a primary focus on electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and roofing systems. Andrade ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning contracting actions with the agency’s mission to enhance installation readiness through resilient, high-performance infrastructure. He routinely handles complex construction and service contracts under FAR Part 36, often coordinating with design-build teams and integrated project delivery models. Andrade maintains a consistent working relationship with MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, a primary contractor for facility upgrades and site development projects. His procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships built on performance reliability, safety compliance, and timely delivery of mission-critical infrastructure services. He prioritizes contractors with proven expertise in commercial, institutional, and industrial construction, fostering collaborative relationships that support sustained operational readiness. His contracting portfolio reflects a 100% Total Small Business Set-Aside strategy under FAR 19.5, demonstrating a strong institutional commitment to socioeconomic programs. All acquisitions are structured to maximize opportunities for small businesses, ensuring broad participation across the small business ecosystem without preference for specific designations like 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, but rather through unrestricted small business set-asides. Andrade’s procurement focus is exclusively aligned with NAICS 333618 — Other Engine Equipment Manufacturing — indicating a specialized need for engineered mechanical systems, including HVAC equipment, boiler systems, and related thermal and fluid-handling components integral to facility operations. His technical expertise lies in procuring mission-critical building systems that support energy efficiency, environmental control, and long-term infrastructure resilience across Air Force installations.
