Patrick R. King

Patrick R. King serves as a Contracting Officer for the Department of the Air Force at FA2517 21 Cons Bldg 350, where he manages mission-critical procurement initiatives focused on infrastructure modernization and operational readiness. His portfolio centers on acquiring facility systems, electrical installation services, and integrated communications infrastructure essential to sustaining Air Force installations. King ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while advancing strategic priorities in fire safety modernization, resilient facility design, and secure technical environments. He handles a mix of fixed-price and cost-reimbursement contracts, primarily for construction, engineering, and facilities support services, aligning acquisitions with Air Force-wide readiness goals. King maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including ASTERI CONSULTING SERVICES LLC, AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, ARHAB LLC, and PRIMEPRO BUSINESS SOLUTIONS LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, non-traditional vendors capable of delivering complex, integrated solutions across electrical systems, site development, and technical support services. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, rigorous technical evaluations, and long-term vendor reliability over short-term cost savings. His procurement patterns show a strong preference for unrestricted competition, with 93.3% of awards issued without set-asides, reflecting the technical complexity and mission-critical nature of the acquisitions. Only 6.7% are designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, indicating a selective but deliberate approach to small business participation when capabilities align with project requirements. King’s primary NAICS focus areas include 238210 (Electrical Contractors) and 561210 (Facilities Support Services), each representing nearly a third of his portfolio. He also regularly procures services under 237990 (Heavy Civil Engineering), 326220 (Rubber and Plastics Hoses and Belting), and 483111 (Deep Sea Freight Transportation), demonstrating expertise in specialized industrial and logistics supply chains critical to sustaining defense infrastructure. His technical domain spans electrical systems integration, facility maintenance, and engineered construction solutions for high-security environments.
