Damon B. Survine

SSgt Damon Survine serves as a key procurement professional within the FA5606 52nd Contracting Squadron, Department of the Air Force, supporting operational readiness at overseas installations such as Spangdahlem Air Base, Germany. He manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions critical to sustaining base infrastructure, including facility maintenance, logistics support, and quality-of-life services essential to mission continuity. His role involves executing full lifecycle contracting actions under FAR and DFARS guidelines, ensuring compliance with DoD and Air Force directives while aligning procurements with strategic resilience goals for deployed forces. While specific contractor names are not publicly available, SSgt Survine maintains collaborative relationships with a broad spectrum of vendors, including small businesses, local overseas suppliers, and specialized service providers capable of meeting expeditionary and sustainment requirements. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for agile, responsive vendors capable of delivering time-sensitive solutions in austere environments, often coordinating with logistics and engineering teams to align procurement timelines with operational needs. SSgt Survine demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly 31% of his acquisitions structured as set-asides, including Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and Women-Owned Small Business preferences. Though the majority of his contracts remain open to all competitors, his consistent use of socioeconomic programs underscores a deliberate effort to foster local economic development and expand vendor diversity in support of Air Force sustainability goals. His procurement focus centers on NAICS 337214 (Office Furniture Manufacturing), reflecting a high volume of facility modernization efforts, alongside recurring needs in commercial and industrial equipment repair (NAICS 811310), miscellaneous manufacturing (339999), and electronics retail (449210). This technical domain expertise highlights his proficiency in procuring non-mission-critical but operationally essential goods that enhance personnel welfare and installation functionality in deployed locations.
