Rose A. Bednarcik

Rose J. Bednarcik serves as a Contracting Officer with the 436th Contracting Squadron under the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in securing critical facility maintenance and construction services essential to sustaining Air Force installation readiness. She manages a diverse portfolio of procurement actions under FAR Part 12 and Part 36, primarily focused on commercial and institutional building construction, roofing, and painting systems. Her work ensures the operational integrity of hangars, support facilities, and security infrastructure by facilitating timely, compliant, and mission-aligned contract awards that align with Air Force infrastructure resilience priorities. Bednarcik maintains a consistent working relationship with Ostrom Painting & Sandblasting, Inc., a key vendor delivering specialized surface preparation and coating services for military facilities. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established, technically proficient contractors with proven experience in aerospace-grade facility maintenance, often engaging firms with prior DoD performance history. She fosters long-term vendor partnerships grounded in quality assurance, regulatory compliance, and on-time delivery, ensuring mission-critical infrastructure remains operational under demanding environmental and security conditions. Her set-aside preferences reveal a balanced approach to socioeconomic contracting: while 63.6% of her awards are unrestricted, she actively supports small business participation through targeted set-asides, including Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (18.2%) and HUBZone firms (9.1%), alongside total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This demonstrates a deliberate effort to expand opportunity while maintaining mission readiness through qualified contractors. Bednarcik’s procurement focus centers on NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), with significant activity in roofing (238160) and painting/wall covering (238320). She specializes in procuring turnkey facility renovation, protective coating systems, and structural maintenance services that meet military specifications for durability, safety, and environmental compliance, making her a key enabler of Air Force base sustainment operations.
