Andrew T. Breer

Andrew T. Breer serves as a key procurement lead within the U.S. Coast Guard’s Headquarters Contract Operations (CG-912), overseeing strategic acquisitions that advance maritime security, operational readiness, and fleet modernization. He manages a diverse portfolio of contracts supporting aerospace, maritime, and technical services critical to coastal patrol, search and detection systems, and maritime domain awareness capabilities. His work directly enables the Coast Guard’s mission to sustain and enhance specialized vessel fleets through new construction, upgrades, and integrated technology solutions, ensuring alignment with national defense and homeland security priorities. Breer maintains consistent relationships with a core group of specialized shipbuilders and maritime service providers, including Bollinger Shipyards, Davie Defense Inc., Rauma Marine Constructions Oy, and Rozema’s Boat Works, Inc. These partnerships reflect a focus on vessel design, construction, and lifecycle support, with an emphasis on proven industrial capabilities in naval architecture and marine systems integration. His contracting approach prioritizes long-term vendor collaboration with firms possessing niche expertise in Coast Guard-specific operational requirements, fostering reliability and technical alignment across complex procurement cycles. His procurement strategy demonstrates a balanced commitment to socioeconomic objectives, with approximately one-third of awards set aside for SBA Certified Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Businesses (EDWOSB), while the majority remain open to full and open competition. This pattern reflects a deliberate effort to expand small business participation without compromising mission-critical delivery timelines or technical standards. Breer’s primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 541611 (administrative and management consulting services) and 518210 (computing infrastructure and data processing services), indicating a strong emphasis on operational support systems, logistics analytics, and digital infrastructure that underpin Coast Guard mission execution. His expertise lies in integrating enterprise-level IT services with maritime operational frameworks, ensuring seamless data flow, command and control interoperability, and mission-critical system sustainment.
