Ariel Chomey

Ariel Chomey serves as a key procurement professional within the U.S. Forest Service’s Csa Intermountain 5 office, responsible for managing contracting activities that support operational sustainability and ecological stewardship across national forest lands. Their work centers on acquiring essential services to maintain infrastructure integrity, support wildfire response readiness, and facilitate environmental remediation efforts. Chomey handles a high volume of service-based acquisitions under FAR Part 12 and Part 13 procedures, with a consistent focus on janitorial and facility support services critical to maintaining safe, functional, and ecologically compliant forest service facilities. Chomey maintains strong, recurring relationships with TETRA TECH, INC. and ALLIED ENGINEERING SERVICES INC., both of which provide specialized environmental and operational support services. These vendor partnerships are characterized by long-term performance reliability and technical alignment with forest health objectives. The contracting approach emphasizes performance-based service delivery, ensuring contractors meet stringent environmental compliance and safety standards required for federal land management operations. Chomey demonstrates an unwavering commitment to small business participation, with 100% of acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to maximize economic opportunity for small, locally based firms and aligns with the Forest Service’s broader socioeconomic goals. All procurements are intentionally reserved for small business concerns, reinforcing equitable access and community-based economic development in rural and forest-adjacent regions. The procurement portfolio is exclusively focused on NAICS 561720 (Janitorial Services), indicating deep specialization in facility maintenance and sanitation support for remote and high-use forest service sites. This includes routine cleaning, waste management, restroom sanitation, and compliance with federal environmental health standards. Chomey’s expertise lies in ensuring these essential services are delivered reliably in challenging, often isolated environments, supporting both public access and ecological preservation objectives.
