Zachary Fordham

Zachary Fordham serves as a key procurement lead within the FA3016 502 Cons Cl under the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing mission-critical contracts that sustain Air Force installation readiness. His work centers on acquiring specialized facility, medical, and infrastructure services essential to operational continuity, with a focus on maintenance, environmental services, and technical support systems. Fordham handles a diverse portfolio of acquisitions under FAR Part 12 and Part 13 procedures, often utilizing simplified acquisition methods for urgent, low-risk requirements while ensuring compliance with federal contracting standards and Air Force-specific mission priorities. He maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including WILLIAM T BROOKS & ASSOCIATES INC, CITADEL FEDERAL SOLUTIONS LLC, NEXLEGACY LLC, PERRY MANAGEMENT CORP OF SOUTH DAKOTA, L.L.C, and AJ COMMERCIAL SERVICES, INC., who provide niche expertise in facility operations, technical support, and service delivery. These partnerships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven performance in government environments, particularly those capable of rapid mobilization and compliance with DoD security and safety protocols. Fordham’s contracting patterns demonstrate a strong inclination toward open competition, with 68.8% of awards issued without set-asides, while maintaining a significant commitment to small business participation—31.3% of contracts are awarded under Total Small Business Set-Asides per FAR 19.5. Though not heavily focused on 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, his portfolio consistently enables small business access through broad-based competition and transparent solicitation practices. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 237110 (Water and Sewer Line Construction), reflecting a heavy emphasis on civil infrastructure maintenance, supplemented by specialized services in pest control, professional training, and electronic computer manufacturing. This technical diversity underscores his expertise in managing complex, multi-disciplinary contracts that support both physical and operational readiness across Air Force installations.
