Catherine Doyne

Catherine Doyne serves as a Contract Specialist at DLA Distribution, where she plays a pivotal role in executing mission-critical procurement actions that sustain the Department of Defense’s global logistics network. Responsible for managing the full lifecycle of contracts—from solicitation and evaluation to award and administration—she ensures the timely acquisition of warehousing, packaging, and distribution infrastructure essential to military readiness. Her portfolio primarily encompasses construction, maintenance, and logistics support services, with a strong emphasis on securing reliable supply chain enablers such as material handling systems, packaging solutions, and facility maintenance contracts. Doyne maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including KINGSLEY BUILDERS, INC., SOUZA CONSTRUCTION, INC., CONSTRUCTICON CORP, VET CON SOUZA, and SDC TIDEWATER JV, LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven expertise in industrial construction, logistics facility upgrades, and specialized packaging infrastructure. Her contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, compliance with DoD standards, and long-term vendor reliability over short-term cost savings. Her procurement strategy reflects a balanced commitment to small business participation, with nearly half of her awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. While the majority of her acquisitions remain open to all competitors, she actively prioritizes small business eligibility and socioeconomic programs, fostering opportunities for qualified small businesses in construction and industrial services. Doyne’s primary NAICS focus areas include commercial and industrial machinery repair (811310), wood container and pallet manufacturing (321920), corrugated and solid fiber box manufacturing (322211), security systems services (561621), and conveyor equipment manufacturing (333922). These reflect her technical expertise in procuring packaging systems, material handling infrastructure, and secure logistics facilities critical to the safe and efficient distribution of defense materiel across global theaters.
