Bryan Swaggerty

Bryan Swaggerty serves as a key procurement lead within the U.S. Forest Service’s Region 3 Southwestern Regional Office, overseeing acquisitions critical to maintaining forest infrastructure and public land stewardship. He manages a portfolio of contracts focused on civil works, facility maintenance, and environmental services that support trail and road resilience, water and sewer system integrity, and visitor facility operations. His role ensures alignment with the agency’s mission to sustainably manage federal forest lands through timely and compliant contracting practices, with a strong emphasis on operational readiness and resource efficiency. Swaggerty maintains a consistent working relationship with GERMRIP LLC, a primary contractor providing specialized maintenance and support services. His procurement approach favors established vendor partnerships that demonstrate proven capacity in field-based logistics and infrastructure support, often engaging firms with regional operational presence and technical expertise in land management environments. These relationships are cultivated through repeat engagements and performance-based contract structures that prioritize reliability and responsiveness in remote, high-traffic public land settings. He exhibits a 100% commitment to small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, ensuring all acquisitions are reserved exclusively for small businesses. This reflects a deliberate strategy to foster local economic development and increase participation from disadvantaged and community-based vendors. His contracting patterns consistently prioritize socioeconomic objectives, aligning with USDA and Forest Service mandates to empower small business growth while maintaining high standards of service delivery. His primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 532120 (truck, utility trailer, and RV rental and leasing), reflecting the agency’s reliance on mobile equipment for field operations, and NAICS 811121 (automotive body, paint, and interior repair), underscoring the need for vehicle maintenance and fleet readiness. These specializations reveal deep technical expertise in mobility and equipment lifecycle management essential for sustaining operations across vast, rugged federal lands.
