Aaron Shaske

Aaron Shaske serves as a Storekeeper at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy (CG ACADEMY, 70Z039), where he plays a critical role in managing the receipt, storage, inventory control, and distribution of mission-critical equipment and supplies essential to training and operational readiness. His responsibilities directly support the agency’s logistical infrastructure, ensuring that maritime training assets—from small boat components to navigation and safety gear—are readily available and properly maintained. Shaske works closely with procurement teams to validate requisitions, maintain accurate stock records, and facilitate timely delivery of goods aligned with academic and field training schedules, making him a key liaison between supply chain operations and frontline training units. He maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of specialized vendors, including Top 3D Shop Inc., Vantage Point, Inc., Chase, Leavitt & Co. Inc., and Crocker’s Boatyard, Inc. These contractors provide precision-manufactured parts, custom fabrication services, marine maintenance solutions, and technical support tailored to Coast Guard vessel and training equipment lifecycle needs. His procurement patterns reflect a preference for established, technically proficient vendors with proven expertise in maritime systems, indicating a reliance on trusted partnerships that deliver high-reliability, low-turnaround components under strict operational standards. Shaske’s acquisition portfolio shows a 100% preference for open, non-set-aside contracts, indicating a focus on technical capability and delivery reliability over socioeconomic preferences. While small business participation is not formally prioritized in his award patterns, his selections are driven by the specialized nature of required goods and the urgency of maintaining training readiness. His procurement activities are exclusively classified under NAICS 921190 (Other General Government Support), reflecting his focus on internal government logistics and support services rather than direct operational procurement. He specializes in acquiring maritime maintenance supplies, custom-fabricated components, and training equipment essential to sustaining the Coast Guard Academy’s academic and operational infrastructure.
