Aaron Deluca serves as a key procurement professional within the U.S. Coast Guard Base Miami (70Z028), responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain critical maritime infrastructure and operational readiness. He oversees contracts for facility maintenance, mechanical system upgrades, and environmental compliance initiatives essential to supporting Coast Guard missions in search and rescue, port security, and vessel operations. His procurement activities are centered on ensuring the long-term functionality of aging base assets through timely and technically sound contracting actions, aligning with the agency’s strategic priorities in infrastructure resilience and modernization. Deluca maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, PHOENIX MARINE LLC, ATZ SOLUTION LLC, and COMMERCIAL BLUE INC, who deliver specialized services in facility repair, marine construction, and industrial maintenance. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for established vendors with proven expertise in maritime infrastructure and heavy mechanical systems, indicating a focus on reliability, technical capability, and performance history over competitive bidding alone. His procurement portfolio shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a mission-driven approach prioritizing technical qualification and operational readiness over socioeconomic targeting, though it does not diminish the value placed on capable small businesses that meet stringent performance criteria. The primary NAICS classification for his acquisitions is 324191—Petroleum Lubricating Oil and Grease Manufacturing—indicating a specialized focus on procuring industrial lubricants, hydraulic fluids, and marine-grade greases critical to vessel and equipment maintenance.
