A strong advocate for socioeconomic contracting, Bueno prioritizes HUBZone set-asides, which account for over 42% of his awards, alongside significant use of total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. He actively promotes participation from service-disabled veteran-owned and 8(a) certified firms, aligning with Department of the Air Force goals to expand opportunities for underserved small businesses while maintaining competitive rigor and mission readiness. His procurement focus centers on NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), 237110 (Water and Sewer Line Construction), and 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), reflecting deep expertise in infrastructure sustainment. He regularly procures services related to facility modernization, utility system upgrades, and specialty trade contracting, ensuring installations remain operationally viable and technologically current.
