Capt Uibin Kim

Capt Uibin Kim serves as a key procurement lead within the FA3030 17 Cons Cc, a unit of the Department of the Air Force responsible for sustaining and modernizing critical infrastructure at Air Force installations. In this role, Kim manages acquisitions for facility maintenance, construction, and systems upgrades essential to operational readiness and personnel welfare. Their portfolio centers on commercial and institutional building construction, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems, ensuring installations meet mission-critical performance standards. Kim’s work directly supports the agency’s mission to maintain resilient, safe, and functional infrastructure through strategic contracting and lifecycle management of facility services. Kim maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors specializing in facility systems and construction, including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, IMPERIAL ELECTRICAL CONTRACTING, LLC, DUNCAN MECHANICAL SERVICE, INC, and ACTION CONSTRUCTION AUSTIN LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for experienced, locally responsive vendors capable of delivering complex, time-sensitive upgrades and repairs across multiple installation sites. The contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, with a focus on quality control, compliance with military construction standards, and rapid response to facility degradation. A defining feature of Kim’s procurement strategy is a strong commitment to small business participation, with 90% of contracts set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate effort to maximize socioeconomic opportunities while ensuring competitive, capable vendor pools. The agency prioritizes small business involvement across multiple categories, including service-disabled veteran-owned, HUBZone, and general small business concerns, aligning with broader Department of Defense mandates for inclusive contracting. Kim’s primary technical focus lies in NAICS 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors), and 238330 (Flooring Contractors), with additional procurement in security systems services and limited computer storage device manufacturing. Their expertise spans integrated facility systems, preventive maintenance contracts, and construction management, demonstrating deep familiarity with DoD facility standards and the technical demands of military infrastructure sustainment.
