Rosa E. Krauss serves as a Contract Administrator for the FA3030 17 Cons Cc under the Department of the Air Force, where she manages the acquisition of critical infrastructure support services essential to maintaining operational readiness at Air Force installations. Her responsibilities include planning, soliciting, awarding, and administering contracts for facility maintenance, mechanical systems, and related support services. She plays a pivotal role in ensuring that mission-critical building systems—particularly HVAC, electrical, and plumbing infrastructure—are sustained through timely, compliant, and cost-effective procurement actions aligned with Air Force readiness priorities. Krauss maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including Mckenzie Construction & Site Development LLC, Imperial Electrical Contracting, LLC, Duncan Mechanical Service, Inc., and Action Construction Austin LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in facility systems maintenance, site development, and specialized repair services. Her contracting patterns emphasize reliability, technical proficiency, and performance-based outcomes, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in clear scope definition and rigorous contract administration. A strong advocate for small business participation, Krauss consistently prioritizes socioeconomic set-asides, with over half of her acquisitions designated as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. She actively supports 8(a) firms and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, reflecting a deliberate commitment to expanding economic opportunity while ensuring access to qualified, capable vendors. Her procurement approach integrates socioeconomic goals with mission requirements, balancing compliance with strategic workforce development. Her technical focus centers on NAICS categories including 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), 423850 and 423690 (merchant wholesalers of facility equipment and electronic components), and 541511 (custom computer programming services). This reflects a domain expertise in procuring integrated facility systems, maintenance parts, and technical support services that underpin the sustainment and modernization of Air Force infrastructure.
