Blaine Greenwalt

Blaine Greenwalt serves as the primary contracting representative for the USDA Forest Service’s CSA Southwest 7 unit, overseeing the acquisition of critical infrastructure projects across national forests in the southwestern United States. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions, he ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while advancing the agency’s mission to maintain transportation networks, water systems, and public access facilities. His portfolio primarily includes construction, engineering, and support services essential to wildfire response, resource management, and recreational infrastructure. He works closely with project managers and engineers to translate operational needs into solicitations that balance technical rigor, safety standards, and fiscal accountability. Greenwalt maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors specializing in civil infrastructure, including Atlantic Pacific Standard LLC, Kramme Construction, LLC, Boom Concrete Inc., 358 Investments, LLC, and Schuck Development Corp. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with demonstrated expertise in road and bridge construction, culvert installation, and site preparation within rugged, environmentally sensitive terrain. His contracting approach emphasizes reliability, local knowledge, and proven performance on complex, terrain-challenged projects, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in compliance and quality delivery. A strong advocate for small business participation, Greenwalt consistently prioritizes Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, with over 86% of his awards reserved for small businesses. He actively leverages socioeconomic programs to expand opportunities for disadvantaged firms, with a smaller but meaningful portion of contracts competed under the 8(a) program. His procurement patterns reflect a deliberate strategy to build capacity within regional small contractors capable of delivering high-impact infrastructure work in remote areas. His primary technical focus lies in NAICS 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction), 237110 (Water and Sewer Line Construction), and 115310 (Support Activities for Forestry), reflecting deep expertise in transportation resilience, drainage systems, and forest service support operations. He procures services ranging from structural concrete work and erosion control to forestry-related engineering and site remediation, ensuring infrastructure meets both public safety and ecological stewardship standards.
