Zachary Hodges

Zachary Hodges serves as a key procurement professional within the Department of the Air Force’s FA2517 21 Cons Bldg 350 office, responsible for managing mission-critical acquisitions that support infrastructure modernization and operational readiness across Air Force installations. His work centers on securing advanced electronic, communication, and facility systems essential to sustaining defense infrastructure, with a focus on fire safety modernization, secure communications, and integrated IT environments. He handles a diverse portfolio of contract actions under FAR Part 12 and Part 13 procedures, including both commercial and non-commercial acquisitions, ensuring alignment with Air Force technical specifications and cybersecurity compliance standards. Hodges maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including ASTERI CONSULTING SERVICES LLC, AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC, MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, ARHAB LLC, and PRIMEPRO BUSINESS SOLUTIONS LLC. These partnerships reflect a balanced mix of technical consulting, systems integration, and construction services, indicating a preference for vendors with proven expertise in defense-grade infrastructure and telecommunications. His contracting patterns suggest a reliance on established performers with demonstrated capability in delivering complex, mission-sensitive solutions under tight operational timelines. While the majority of his acquisitions are conducted as open competitions (80% no set-aside), he actively supports small business participation through Total Small Business Set-Asides (20%), aligning with FAR 19.5 requirements. This reflects a deliberate effort to foster competition among qualified small businesses without compromising mission requirements or schedule integrity. His procurement focus is concentrated in NAICS categories related to computer services (541519), communications equipment manufacturing (334118, 334220, 334290), and satellite telecommunications (517410), underscoring deep technical expertise in electronic systems, data transmission infrastructure, and secure networking solutions critical to Air Force operational environments.
