Alexandar N Starr

Alexandar N. Starr serves as a Procurement Assistant within the USDA Forest Service, supporting the agency’s mission to sustain forest and grassland ecosystems through strategic acquisition of critical infrastructure and operational services. In this role, he facilitates the execution of federal procurement actions aligned with agency priorities in wildfire mitigation, ecological restoration, and remote-area infrastructure resilience. Starr primarily handles construction-related acquisitions under the Commercial and Institutional Building Construction NAICS code, ensuring compliance with federal contracting regulations while enabling timely delivery of facilities and support structures essential to field operations in rugged, high-risk environments. Starr maintains consistent working relationships with a focused set of contractors, including ACI FEDERAL INC, ONE STOP RECRUITING LLC, GONDO ROY E MD, THE LOCUMS CO, LLC, and AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC. These partnerships reflect a blend of specialized construction firms, workforce staffing providers, and technical service vendors critical to sustaining Forest Service operations. His procurement approach emphasizes reliability, regulatory adherence, and responsiveness to urgent field needs, often coordinating with project managers and engineering teams to align contract deliverables with on-the-ground operational demands. A defining feature of Starr’s contracting activity is his exclusive use of HUBZone set-asides, demonstrating a strong institutional commitment to economic development in historically underserved rural communities. All of his procurements are structured to prioritize HUBZone-certified small businesses, reinforcing the Forest Service’s broader goal of fostering equitable economic opportunity while tapping into local labor pools with proven familiarity with remote and environmentally sensitive work zones. His procurement focus is narrowly concentrated on NAICS 236220, indicating deep specialization in the construction of commercial and institutional buildings—including ranger stations, visitor centers, maintenance facilities, and emergency response infrastructure. This technical domain requires precise understanding of federal construction standards, environmental compliance, and logistics for remote site delivery, positioning Starr as a key enabler of the Forest Service’s physical and operational readiness across national forests.
