Brenda Lewis

Brenda Lewis serves as the primary procurement lead for the Pwr Pore Mabo (140P84), a critical operational unit within the National Park Service responsible for maintaining and modernizing infrastructure across protected natural and cultural landscapes. In this role, she manages the full lifecycle of acquisition activities for utility, transportation, waste management, and environmental compliance projects, ensuring alignment with federal sustainability and resilience standards. Her portfolio encompasses construction, maintenance, and service contracts essential to the safe and functional operation of park facilities, with a strong emphasis on compliance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation and environmental stewardship requirements. Lewis maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including ELECTRIC CRICKET, LLC, PACIFIC MARINE REPAIR, WHITE BEAR CONSTRUCTION, INC., GULF HOLDINGS, LLC, and WASTE CONNECTIONS OF CALIFORNIA, INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for specialized vendors with proven expertise in niche infrastructure domains such as marine repairs, solid waste handling, and environmental utility systems. Her procurement approach emphasizes reliability, technical proficiency, and long-term operational compatibility, fostering collaborative vendor relationships built on performance history and regulatory adherence. A defining feature of Lewis’s contracting strategy is her strong commitment to small business participation, with 80.6% of her acquisitions set aside exclusively for small businesses under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate and sustained effort to expand economic opportunity within the contractor base, prioritizing small, locally rooted firms capable of delivering tailored solutions to remote and ecologically sensitive park sites. Her portfolio consistently supports socioeconomic goals without compromising mission-critical performance standards. Her technical focus centers on NAICS codes 238220 (plumbing, heating, and air-conditioning), 562111 (solid waste collection), and 115310 (support activities for forestry), indicating deep expertise in environmental infrastructure systems. She procures specialized services related to utility retrofits, waste logistics, and forested land maintenance, demonstrating a nuanced understanding of the intersection between public land management and regulated construction services.
