Zaire Naylor

Zaire Naylor serves as a Contracting Administrator within the FA4626 341 Cons Lgc under the Department of the Air Force, responsible for managing the acquisition of critical infrastructure and civil engineering services essential to mission-ready installations. Naylor oversees the full lifecycle of procurement actions for facility sustainment projects, including HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and structural systems, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and Air Force civil engineering standards. Their work directly supports the agency’s mission to maintain and modernize physical assets across Air Force bases, prioritizing resilience, safety, and operational continuity through strategic contracting. Naylor maintains a consistent working relationship with MID MOUNTAIN BOILER AND STEAM, INC., a key vendor specializing in industrial heating and steam systems, reflecting a pattern of engagement with niche technical contractors capable of delivering specialized facility infrastructure solutions. While this relationship is prominent, Naylor also collaborates with a diverse pool of small and medium-sized vendors to meet the varied demands of installation-level maintenance and upgrades, demonstrating a preference for responsive, technically proficient partners with proven field capabilities. A strong commitment to small business participation defines Naylor’s contracting approach, with 70% of acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster economic opportunity and build a resilient supplier base, prioritizing small businesses over large prime contractors across multiple categories. The remaining 30% of procurements are non-set-aside, typically reserved for specialized technical requirements where only a limited number of qualified vendors exist. Naylor’s procurement focus spans a broad but unusual mix of NAICS codes, with notable activity in 334210 (Telephone Apparatus Manufacturing) and 334516 (Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing), suggesting procurement of facility monitoring and environmental control systems. Additionally, work in 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction) and 484110 (General Freight Trucking, Local) indicates support for base-wide civil works and logistics. This eclectic profile underscores expertise in procuring both high-tech instrumentation and heavy infrastructure services critical to Air Force installation readiness.
