Nicholas E. Brazzale

Nicholas E. Brazzale serves as a key procurement professional within the FA2543 460 Cons agency under the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain and modernize critical infrastructure across Air Force installations. His work centers on facility construction, maintenance, and utility system upgrades—including commercial and institutional building construction, plumbing, HVAC, and electrical installations—ensuring mission-ready facilities that support operational readiness. He executes contracts under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, balancing technical compliance with fiscal stewardship to meet the agency’s infrastructure modernization objectives. While specific contractor relationships are not currently available in the procurement record, Brazzale’s acquisition patterns suggest engagement with a diverse pool of general contractors, specialty trades, and technical service providers experienced in federal facility construction and maintenance. His procurement approach likely emphasizes performance-based contracting and quality assurance protocols to ensure long-term facility reliability and compliance with DoD standards. Brazzale demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly half of all awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, and a notable 3.7% dedicated to service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster economic opportunity while leveraging the agility and innovation of small businesses in delivering critical infrastructure services. His procurement focus is concentrated in NAICS categories including 813110 (Religious Organizations), 327390 (Other Concrete Product Manufacturing), 561320 (Temporary Help Services), 517919 (Other Telecommunications), and 711130 (Musical Groups and Artists). While some categories appear atypical for a defense infrastructure agency, they may reflect ancillary or facility-support services such as maintenance staffing, specialized concrete work, or temporary support for installation events. His expertise lies in aligning these diverse procurement needs with mission-critical facility sustainment goals.
