SSgt Landon Heller

Landon N. Heller serves as a Contract Specialist within the FA4855 27 Socons Lgc under the Department of the Air Force, where he plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical acquisitions to sustain air base infrastructure and operational readiness. His portfolio encompasses construction, facility modernization, and secure communications systems, with a focus on procurement actions governed by FAR Part 13 and Part 15. Heller manages complex contract vehicles including Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) and Firm-Fixed-Price contracts to deliver essential services such as HVAC upgrades, wastewater treatment systems, and integrated security infrastructure, ensuring compliance with DoD acquisition policies and lifecycle sustainment requirements. He maintains a consistent working relationship with ALTUS TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS LLC, a primary contractor delivering technical and engineering services across facility modernization and communications systems. Heller’s procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and outcome-driven deliverables, fostering long-term vendor partnerships grounded in technical proficiency and regulatory compliance. His engagement with contractors reflects a preference for established industry players with demonstrated capability in defense infrastructure support, while maintaining rigorous oversight of contract performance and deliverables. Heller demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with nearly half of his acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a deliberate strategy to expand economic opportunity within the defense industrial base. While HUBZone set-asides represent a minor portion of his portfolio, his overall contracting patterns prioritize broad-based small business inclusion, aligning with Air Force mandates to enhance competition and resilience in the supply chain. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 334511 for aeronautical navigation and guidance systems, alongside specialized acquisitions in sewage treatment (221320), security systems services (561621), and facility-related manufacturing (314110). This technical breadth underscores his expertise in procuring mission-critical systems that support both environmental compliance and operational security across Air Force installations.
