Stephen Carr

Stephen Carr supports the Department of the Air Force’s mission to modernize critical infrastructure and enhance operational readiness at FA2517 21 Cons Bldg 350 through strategic procurement of technical and facility-related services. While his formal title is not specified, his role centers on managing acquisitions that ensure secure, resilient, and technologically advanced environments for Air Force installations. He routinely handles complex contracts for computer systems design, facility upgrades, and integrated communication infrastructure, aligning with the agency’s focus on sustaining mission-critical assets and advancing defense-ready infrastructure. Carr maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors, including ASTERI CONSULTING SERVICES LLC, AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, ARHAB LLC, and PRIMEPRO BUSINESS SOLUTIONS LLC. These partnerships reflect a balanced approach between established firms capable of delivering large-scale technical integration and specialized service providers with niche expertise in construction, IT systems, and defense-compliant operations. His procurement patterns suggest a preference for vendors with proven experience in federal facility modernization and secure IT environments. His contracting activity is evenly split between small business set-asides and open competitions, demonstrating a deliberate commitment to fostering small business participation under FAR 19.5. Approximately half of his awards are structured as total small business set-asides, indicating active engagement with SDVOSB, HUBZone, and 8(a) eligible firms, while the remaining half supports broader market competition to ensure technical excellence and cost efficiency. Carr’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services) and NAICS 624410 (Child Care Services), a combination that reflects both the agency’s core need for advanced IT infrastructure and its support for on-installation family readiness programs. His technical domain expertise spans secure network architecture, facility automation systems, and integrated service delivery models that align with Air Force sustainability and personnel support objectives.
