Nak�a Hightower

Nakäa Hightower serves as a key procurement lead within the FA4620 92 Cons Lgc under the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain mission-critical air base infrastructure and operational readiness. Specializing in industrial maintenance, security systems, and specialized equipment procurement, Hightower ensures the reliability of aviation and ground support facilities through compliant, timely contract actions aligned with Air Force readiness priorities. Their portfolio consistently supports physical security enhancements, facility modernization, and critical utility systems essential to base operations. Hightower maintains established working relationships with a core group of contractors including Didsbury Inc., ACOUSTIC TECHNOLOGY, INC., NW TEL, LLC, RHODES STEPHENNE, and ATS INLAND NW LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for specialized vendors capable of delivering niche industrial services—from acoustic containment solutions to telecommunications infrastructure and environmental remediation. The contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, with a focus on vendors demonstrating technical proficiency in complex, regulated environments typical of military installations. Hightower exhibits a strong, unwavering commitment to small business participation, with 100% of procurements structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize economic opportunity for small, locally rooted firms while ensuring access to agile, responsive service providers capable of meeting the unique demands of Air Force infrastructure sustainment. No other socioeconomic set-asides are utilized, underscoring a singular focus on broad small business engagement across all contract actions. The procurement portfolio is evenly distributed across four specialized NAICS categories: 562910 (Remediation Services), 335220 (Major Household Appliance Manufacturing), 811111 (General Automotive Repair), and 334610 (Manufacturing and Reproducing Magnetic and Optical Media). This unique blend indicates expertise in procuring both environmental cleanup services and highly technical equipment, including HVAC systems, vehicle maintenance tools, and data storage media—demonstrating a broad yet precise technical understanding of non-traditional defense logistics needs.
