Anthony J. Andaluz

Anthony J. Andaluz serves as a SK3 Contracting Officer within the U.S. Coast Guard’s SFLC Procurement Branch 2 (70Z085), where he plays a pivotal role in managing acquisitions critical to the sustainment and modernization of the Coast Guard’s maritime fleet. His responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle procurement of shipbuilding, repair, and maintenance services for cutters and naval infrastructure, ensuring operational readiness across coastal and open-ocean missions. Andaluz specializes in complex, technically demanding contracts governed by FAR Part 13 and Part 16, often involving performance-based service agreements and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) instruments tailored to naval engineering requirements. He maintains consistent working relationships with key industrial partners including ROLLS-ROYCE SOLUTIONS AMERICA INC, VIGOR MARINE LLC, JAG INDUSTRIAL SERVICES, INC, G I INDUSTRIAL-MARINE, LLC, and L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED. These partnerships reflect a strategic focus on shipyard capabilities, marine systems integration, and industrial maintenance services essential to vessel sustainment. Andaluz cultivates long-term vendor collaborations grounded in technical proficiency, compliance with naval specifications, and adherence to quality assurance protocols under MIL-STD and ABS standards. His procurement portfolio demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with over half of his awards structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. While the majority of contracts remain open, he strategically deploys 8(a) competed set-asides and occasional HUBZone opportunities to foster economic inclusion and expand the industrial base supporting Coast Guard readiness. Andaluz’s primary technical focus lies in NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing), accounting for nearly 87% of his acquisitions. He procures specialized services including hull repairs, propulsion system overhauls, electrical and mechanical retrofitting, and dry-dock maintenance—domains requiring deep expertise in naval architecture, marine engineering, and Coast Guard-specific vessel standards. His work ensures the fleet remains mission-ready through precise, compliant, and industrially robust contracting.
