Wesley Radford

Wesley Radford serves as a Contracting Specialist within the FA4613 90 Cons Pk unit of the Department of the Air Force, where he plays a pivotal role in securing mission-critical infrastructure support for nuclear deterrence operations. Responsible for managing full-cycle acquisitions under FAR Part 15, Radford specializes in procurements that sustain remote missile field installations, launch facilities, and associated utilities. His portfolio includes complex contracts for engineering services, facility modernization, and security system integration, all aligned with the agency’s mandate to ensure continuous operational readiness and resilience of strategic defense assets. Radford maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors, including Olgoonik Specialty Contractors, LLC, Aerospace & Commercial Technologies, LLC, and SafeWare Inc. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with proven expertise in remote site sustainment, defense-grade environmental services, and specialized aerospace infrastructure support. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, long-term vendor collaboration, and technical compliance with DoD security and environmental standards. A staunch advocate for small business participation, Radford directs 100% of his acquisitions toward total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, ensuring equitable access for disadvantaged and veteran-owned firms. His procurement patterns reflect a deliberate strategy to maximize socioeconomic impact while maintaining mission fidelity, with no use of large business set-asides or unrestricted competitions. His primary NAICS focus spans three distinct but operationally critical domains: apparel accessories manufacturing (315990), sporting and athletic goods manufacturing (339920), and septic tank and related services (562991). These seemingly disparate categories support specialized needs in uniform component procurement, training equipment, and remote sanitation infrastructure for isolated launch sites. Radford’s expertise lies in aligning niche industrial capabilities with high-security defense requirements, demonstrating nuanced understanding of how non-traditional suppliers contribute to strategic mission success.
