Patrick V. Kennison

MSG Patrick Kennison serves as a key procurement lead within the 0413 Aq Hq Rco-hi, part of the Department of the Army’s Pacific regional support structure, where he manages mission-enabling acquisitions critical to installation sustainability and operational readiness. His responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle of contracting for facility maintenance, environmental compliance, and logistics support services, ensuring Army installations across the Pacific remain resilient and mission-ready. He routinely handles task orders and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts under FAR Part 16, with a focus on service-based acquisitions that support infrastructure integrity and operational continuity. Kennison maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including HAMASAKI CONSTRUCTION LLC, PHOENIX V LLC, and SURECAN LLC, among others, who provide specialized construction, waste management, and equipment leasing services. His procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships grounded in performance reliability and regulatory compliance, particularly in remote and austere environments. He frequently collaborates with regional firms capable of rapid response and culturally attuned service delivery across the Pacific theater. His contracting portfolio reflects a strong commitment to small business participation, with over half of his awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This pattern underscores a deliberate strategy to cultivate local economic resilience and enhance contractor diversity, prioritizing small businesses with proven capacity in environmental services and infrastructure support. He rarely utilizes other set-aside categories, indicating a preference for broad small business eligibility over targeted socioeconomic programs. Kennison’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 562111 (solid waste collection) and 238290 (other building equipment contractors), reflecting his domain expertise in environmental services and facility systems maintenance. He also regularly procures commercial and industrial equipment leasing under NAICS 532490 and vehicle rentals under 532120, demonstrating a technical understanding of logistics support chains and sustainable installation operations across the Pacific region.
