Trenton M. High

Trenton M. High supports the procurement mission of the FA4528 5 Cons under the Department of the Air Force, managing acquisitions critical to sustaining and modernizing military infrastructure. His responsibilities include planning, soliciting, and awarding contracts for facility construction, building systems integration, and operational support services across Air Force installations. He routinely handles complex, multi-disciplinary procurements involving electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, and structural construction for commercial, institutional, and industrial facilities, ensuring alignment with Air Force engineering standards and lifecycle sustainability goals. High maintains a strong working relationship with MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, a primary contractor for site development and facility upgrades. His procurement approach emphasizes collaborative vendor partnerships, favoring firms with proven expertise in integrated building systems and site-level infrastructure improvements. He engages contractors through competitive sealed bidding and negotiated contracts, prioritizing performance-based outcomes and compliance with federal construction codes. His contracting strategy reflects a robust commitment to small business participation, with 65% of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. An additional 20% are reserved for women-owned small businesses, while HUBZone and other socioeconomic programs account for 5% of awards, demonstrating a deliberate effort to expand opportunity across diverse vendor communities. This pattern underscores a strategic alignment with Department of Defense small business goals and socioeconomic equity mandates. High’s technical focus centers on NAICS 237310 (highway, street, and bridge construction) and 238330 (flooring contractors), reflecting a specialization in site infrastructure and interior build-out services. He also oversees procurements for security systems, power line installations, and custom manufacturing of institutional fixtures such as lockers and partitions. His domain expertise lies in integrating civil, mechanical, and security systems into cohesive, mission-ready facility environments.
