Sandra M. Kenzie

Sandra M. Kenzie serves as a Contracting Officer for the W7MU Uspfo Activity Ak Arng (W91ZRU), a Department of the Army unit dedicated to sustaining the operational readiness and quality-of-life needs of Army National Guard personnel. In this role, she manages non-traditional defense acquisitions focused on administrative, educational, lodging, and recreational services—areas critical to maintaining force readiness beyond conventional military procurement. Her portfolio emphasizes commercial and institutional building construction and engineering services, reflecting a mission-critical need to support infrastructure and facility-based operations for Guard units across the nation. She exercises full contracting authority under FAR Part 15, ensuring compliance with federal regulations while aligning acquisitions with strategic readiness goals. Kenzie maintains a consistent working relationship with Arctic Office Machine, Inc., a key vendor delivering specialized support services aligned with the agency’s non-traditional procurement model. Her contracting approach fosters long-term, performance-based partnerships with firms capable of delivering integrated facility and administrative solutions. While she engages with a range of vendors, her pattern of repeat engagement with Arctic Office Machine suggests a preference for proven, reliable contractors with demonstrated capacity in complex, mission-critical service delivery environments. She exhibits a balanced but deliberate commitment to small business participation, structuring approximately half of her acquisitions as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate effort to broaden vendor diversity and enhance economic opportunity within the defense support sector, while maintaining flexibility through non-set-aside procurements to ensure mission continuity and competitive pricing. Her primary industry focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), where she oversees facility upgrades, maintenance, and new construction projects supporting Guard training and administrative sites. She also routinely procures NAICS 541330 (Engineering Services) for design, planning, and technical oversight. Her expertise centers on delivering mission-enabling infrastructure and support services through compliant, efficient, and sustainable contracting practices.
