Brittany Rusch

Brittany Rusch serves as a key procurement professional within the U.S. Coast Guard’s LOG-9 office (70Z084), supporting the agency’s mission to sustain operational readiness through life-cycle support services for shore-based and maritime operations. She manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions focused on facilities support, environmental services, and mission-critical infrastructure, ensuring that Coast Guard personnel have secure, functional, and habitable environments to conduct national security missions. Her work spans the full acquisition lifecycle—from requirements definition and market research to contract award and performance monitoring—primarily targeting non-defense, mission-enabling services critical to daily operations across coastal and inland waterways. Rusch maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including GILMAN CORPORATION THE, FRONTLINE ENTERPRISES LLC, S3 SOLUTIONS ONE LLC, FAZTEC INDUSTRIES INC, and VMX INTERNATIONAL LLC. These vendors are regularly engaged for integrated support services, ranging from facility maintenance and environmental compliance to food service operations and specialized technical support. Her contracting patterns reflect a preference for established, performance-driven partners with proven capabilities in delivering scalable, mission-aligned solutions under long-term service agreements. Her procurement strategy prioritizes socioeconomic diversity, with 40% of her awards directed toward small business set-asides—equally split between Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5 and 8(a) competed contracts. This reflects a deliberate commitment to expanding opportunities for disadvantaged and small businesses while maintaining competitive rigor and mission effectiveness. Her primary NAICS focus areas include 561210 (Facilities Support Services), 722310 (Food Service Contractors), 561990 (All Other Support Services), and 221310 (Water Supply and Irrigation Systems), indicating deep expertise in managing complex, multi-disciplinary service contracts that integrate infrastructure, environmental stewardship, and personnel support. She routinely procures services that ensure the operational continuity of Coast Guard facilities, from base utilities and waste management to on-site dining and emergency response readiness.
