SSgt Conner Krimm

SSgt Conner Krimm serves as a key procurement specialist within the FA4855 27th Security Forces Contracting Squadron, supporting the Department of the Air Force’s mission to sustain air base operational readiness through strategic acquisition of mission-critical infrastructure and communications systems. He manages a diverse portfolio of construction, facility modernization, and secure communications contracts, ensuring compliance with Air Force installation resilience standards. His work directly enables the procurement of essential building systems—including HVAC, wastewater treatment, and secure network infrastructure—critical to maintaining mission continuity across expeditionary and garrisoned locations. Krimm maintains a consistent working relationship with ALTUS TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS LLC, a trusted vendor delivering integrated facility services and specialized communications equipment. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for long-term, performance-based partnerships with vendors capable of meeting stringent DoD security and technical specifications. He routinely engages contractors under indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) and task-order mechanisms to ensure rapid response to evolving base infrastructure needs while maintaining accountability and operational flexibility. A staunch advocate for small business participation, Krimm exclusively utilizes Total Small Business Set-Aside authorities under FAR 19.5, ensuring all procurements are reserved for small business concerns. His contracting approach prioritizes socioeconomic inclusion, consistently directing opportunities to small businesses without preference for specific subsets like 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, thereby maximizing competition and fostering broad-based economic resilience within the defense supply chain. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 314110 (Carpet and Rug Mills), reflecting a high volume of facility interior upgrades, and NAICS 334220 (Radio and Television Broadcasting and Wireless Communications Equipment Manufacturing), underscoring his expertise in procuring secure, military-grade communications hardware. Krimm’s technical acumen spans facility systems integration and RF-emitting equipment compliance, making him a vital link between base engineering requirements and contractor delivery capabilities.
