Panuwat Sriautharawong

Panuwat Sriautharawong serves as a key procurement professional within the Department of the Air Force’s FA2860 316 Cons Pk facility at Joint Base Andrews, supporting the sustainment of critical infrastructure and operational readiness. Responsible for managing acquisitions in support of command, control, and communications systems, Sriautharawong oversees contracts for security infrastructure, radio and broadcasting hardware, and facility maintenance services essential to air operations. Their work directly enables mission-critical capabilities by ensuring timely procurement of integrated systems that maintain the base’s security posture and communication resilience. Sriautharawong maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors, including ZERO WASTE SOLUTIONS, INC, SENECA MINERAL COMPANY, and PELICAN CHEMICALS INC., reflecting a focus on environmental compliance, specialized material supply, and industrial support services. These partnerships suggest a preference for vendors with niche technical capabilities in hazardous material handling, site remediation, and chemical logistics—areas critical to maintaining operational compliance and facility integrity. The contracting patterns indicate a reliance on established, capable vendors with proven performance in government-constrained environments. A strong commitment to small business participation is evident in Sriautharawong’s contracting patterns, with 60% of acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster economic opportunity and diversify the supplier base, aligning with Department of Defense mandates to increase small business engagement. The remaining 40% of contracts are open to all competitors, suggesting a balanced approach that prioritizes small business inclusion without compromising mission requirements. Despite the agency’s focus on defense infrastructure, the NAICS codes associated with Sriautharawong’s acquisitions—including 339115 for ophthalmic goods and 621511 for medical laboratories—reveal an unexpected alignment with medical and laboratory supply procurement. This suggests a broader scope of responsibilities that may include supporting on-base medical facilities or specialized testing environments, indicating technical expertise in procuring highly regulated, precision-engineered goods across disparate domains.
