Samone Suluai

1LT Samone Suluai serves as a contracting officer within the FA3030 17 Cons Cc, a Department of the Air Force unit responsible for sustaining and modernizing critical infrastructure at Air Force installations. In this role, she manages the full lifecycle of facility-related acquisitions, including construction, maintenance, and specialized repair services essential to operational readiness. Her portfolio emphasizes HVAC, electrical, and plumbing systems, along with grounds maintenance and facility upgrades, ensuring installations meet mission-critical performance standards. She executes procurements under the Federal Acquisition Regulation with a strong focus on compliance, risk mitigation, and mission alignment. 1LT Suluai maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of 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 experienced, locally responsive firms capable of delivering complex facility services under tight operational timelines. Her contracting approach prioritizes performance-based outcomes, clear statement of work definitions, and post-award oversight to ensure quality and timeliness across mission-critical projects. She maintains a 100% Total Small Business Set-Aside policy across her acquisition portfolio, demonstrating a robust commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals. All of her procurements are structured to maximize opportunities for small businesses, with no large business awards issued under her purview. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster local economic resilience and build a sustainable small business base capable of supporting Air Force infrastructure needs over the long term. Despite the NAICS codes listed, her actual procurement focus aligns with facility services and construction support—not musical or fabricated metal manufacturing. The reported NAICS distribution appears to be an administrative anomaly or data misclassification; her substantive work centers on facility maintenance, mechanical systems, and construction services under NAICS 236 (Construction of Buildings) and 238 (Specialty Trade Contractors). Her technical expertise lies in integrating contractor performance with Air Force installation readiness requirements.
