Anthony W. Burgos

Anthony W. Burgos serves as an Item Manager at the Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) of the U.S. Coast Guard, where he plays a critical role in sustaining the operational readiness of the Coast Guard’s rotary- and fixed-wing aircraft fleet. Responsible for managing the lifecycle procurement of mission-critical aviation components, he ensures the timely acquisition of spare parts, avionics, and maintenance support systems essential to extending the service life of legacy platforms such as the MH-65E Dauphin and HC-144 Ocean Sentry. His acquisitions are tightly aligned with the ALC’s sustainment mission, focusing on technical specifications, logistics integration, and supply chain resilience to maintain high mission availability rates. Burgos maintains longstanding relationships with key contractors including ROCKWELL COLLINS, INC., AIRBUS US SPACE & DEFENSE INC, AVIATRIX INC, and GOLDBELT INTEGRATED LOGISTICS SERVICES, LLC, who provide specialized aviation maintenance, repair, and overhaul services, as well as certified technical support for complex avionics and flight systems. His procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting, technical compliance, and long-term sustainment partnerships, often leveraging blanket purchase agreements and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) mechanisms to ensure responsive logistics support across geographically dispersed operational units. Burgos’s contracting activity reflects a consistent preference for open competition, with 100% of his acquisitions issued without socioeconomic set-asides. While he does not prioritize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, his procurement strategy prioritizes mission-critical capability and supply chain reliability over socioeconomic criteria, ensuring uninterrupted support for Coast Guard aviation operations. His primary procurement focus is on NAICS 488190 (Other Support Activities for Air Transportation), encompassing aircraft maintenance, technical support, logistics management, and aviation component refurbishment. He specializes in procuring certified aviation parts, avionics upgrades, and sustainment services for legacy and modernized aircraft systems, demonstrating deep technical expertise in aerospace logistics and defense aviation sustainment.
