Brittany Barlow serves as a key procurement professional within U.S. Coast Guard Base Miami (70Z028), responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain and modernize critical maritime infrastructure. Her work directly supports the agency’s mission to ensure operational readiness through facility maintenance, vessel repair, and base infrastructure resilience. She oversees a portfolio of contracts focused on construction, mechanical systems, environmental services, and facility modernization, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and mission-critical timelines.

Barlow maintains consistent partnerships with a core group of contractors including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, PHOENIX MARINE LLC, ATZ SOLUTION LLC, and COMMERCIAL BLUE INC, all of which provide specialized expertise in marine construction, facility maintenance, and technical support services. Her procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor relationships built on performance reliability and technical proficiency, particularly in complex waterfront and industrial environments.

Her technical domain expertise lies in sustaining aging coastal facilities, upgrading critical utilities, and ensuring compliance with environmental and safety regulations governing federal maritime installations.
