Sheila Zagata

Sheila Zagata serves as a Contract Specialist with FA5240 36 Cons Lgc under the Department of the Air Force, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical procurement actions to sustain air base infrastructure and operational readiness. She manages the full lifecycle of acquisitions for construction, maintenance, and facility modernization services, ensuring compliance with federal contracting regulations and alignment with Air Force strategic priorities. Her portfolio primarily encompasses civil engineering, utility systems, and facility repair contracts essential to maintaining secure, functional, and resilient installations. Zagata’s work directly supports the agency’s mandate to preserve airborne and ground support capabilities through reliable, timely procurement of infrastructure services. Sheila collaborates consistently with a core group of experienced contractors including PACIFIC RIM CONSTRUCTORS INC, GOCRAFTS LLC, DOCOMO PACIFIC, INC., M-80 SYSTEMS, INC., and MIC INDUSTRIES INC. These vendors are frequently engaged for complex, multi-disciplinary projects involving site development, communications infrastructure, and facility upgrades. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, clear technical specifications, and long-term vendor reliability, fostering stable, results-driven partnerships that prioritize mission continuity and quality assurance. Zagata demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with HUBZone set-asides accounting for 40% of her award activity, reflecting a deliberate focus on economically distressed communities. While the majority of her acquisitions are open to full and open competition, she actively structures opportunities to maximize HUBZone eligibility, ensuring that qualified small businesses have equitable access to federal contracts supporting national defense infrastructure. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction), 237110 (Water and Sewer Line Construction), 236118 (Residential Remodeling), and 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction). She specializes in procuring civil works, utility relocations, facility renovations, and infrastructure upgrades critical to sustaining Air Force installations, demonstrating deep technical familiarity with construction standards, environmental compliance, and DoD facility requirements.
