Yongsuk Kim

Yongsuk Kim serves as a key procurement lead within the 0411 Aq Hq Contract Augmented unit of the Department of the Army, responsible for managing complex facility sustainment and infrastructure modernization contracts critical to U.S. Army garrison operations, particularly at overseas installations such as USAG Humphreys and USFK. Their role centers on ensuring the operational readiness of military facilities through the acquisition of construction, maintenance, and utility support services. Kim routinely oversees contract actions under the Army’s installation resilience program, focusing on long-term infrastructure integrity, including industrial, commercial, and institutional building systems, as well as heavy civil engineering components essential to mission-critical environments. Kim maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including GLOBAL SYSTEMIZED INDUSTRY, 09CLEAN CO., LTD, KOREA CONTAINER POOL CO., LTD, NOKHWACHANGJO, and GLOBAL COMPANY ALLIANCE CO., LTD., primarily engaged in facility maintenance, modular construction, and utility system upgrades. These partnerships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven capabilities in overseas deployment environments and a track record of compliance with military construction standards. The contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and contractor accountability in high-demand operational theaters. Set-aside utilization remains limited, with 91.2% of awards issued under full and open competition, reflecting a prioritization of capability and readiness over socioeconomic preferences. Small business participation is modest, with only 7.3% allocated to total small business set-asides and 1.5% to 8(a) competed contracts, indicating a mission-driven focus on contractor capacity and geographic expertise rather than socioeconomic targeting. The procurement portfolio is heavily concentrated in NAICS 236210 (Industrial Building Construction) and 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), with significant activity in 237990 (Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction) and 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors). Technical expertise centers on military-grade infrastructure, including utility reconfiguration, modular housing systems, and facility modernization for austere environments.
