SrA Tackett

SrA Tackett serves as a procurement specialist within the FA4528 5 Cons unit of the Department of the Air Force, supporting the sustainment and modernization of critical infrastructure across Air Force installations. Responsible for managing acquisition cycles for facility construction and building systems integration, Tackett handles contracts for electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, and structural construction services across commercial, institutional, and industrial domains. Their work directly enables mission readiness by ensuring that base facilities meet operational, safety, and environmental standards through timely and compliant contracting actions. Tackett maintains a consistent working relationship with MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, a key contractor for complex site development and facility upgrades. This partnership reflects a pattern of engaging experienced general contractors capable of executing multi-trade, integrated building systems projects under stringent military standards. The relationship is characterized by repeat engagement and performance-based award decisions, indicating a preference for contractors with proven track records in military construction environments and compliance with NFPA, UFC, and DoD facility requirements. Tackett’s procurement strategy reflects a balanced approach to socioeconomic contracting, with approximately half of acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and the other half open to all competitors. This reflects a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for small businesses while maintaining competition and technical capability in high-demand construction and facility support categories. No preference is shown for 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, indicating a focus on broad small business participation over targeted socioeconomic programs. The primary NAICS focus areas include 561790 for building services, 324110 for petroleum refinery support, and 562211 for hazardous waste management, reflecting a diverse portfolio that extends beyond traditional construction to include specialized environmental and industrial facility support. Tackett’s expertise lies in procuring integrated building systems and mission-critical infrastructure services that align with Air Force installation resilience and sustainability goals.
