Courtney Ternullo

Courtney Ternullo serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of procurement actions within the federal energy infrastructure sector. She ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while executing complex solicitations, evaluating proposals, and administering contracts for critical power generation systems. Her role is central to advancing the agency’s mission of securing reliable, efficient, and compliant energy infrastructure through transparent and competitive contracting practices. Ternullo typically handles large-scale, performance-based acquisitions for power plant operations, maintenance services, and related engineering support, often involving long-term service agreements and technical performance metrics. Ternullo maintains professional relationships with a range of qualified contractors specializing in fossil fuel power generation, including engineering firms, maintenance service providers, and equipment suppliers. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she consistently engages vendors with demonstrated technical expertise in thermal power systems, emissions control, and plant modernization. Her contracting approach emphasizes vendor reliability, past performance, and adherence to safety and environmental standards, fostering stable, performance-driven partnerships built on accountability and regulatory compliance. Ternullo’s procurement activity reflects a strong preference for open, unrestricted competition, with 100% of her awards issued under the “No Set-Aside” category. This indicates a focus on technical merit and operational capability over socioeconomic designation-based preferences. While she does not routinely utilize 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB set-asides, her process remains fully compliant with all small business participation goals, ensuring that qualified small businesses have equitable access to opportunities through open solicitations. Her primary procurement focus is exclusively on NAICS 221112—Fossil Fuel Electric Power Generation. She specializes in acquiring services and systems related to coal, natural gas, and oil-fired power plants, including turbine maintenance, boiler retrofits, fuel handling infrastructure, and emissions compliance technologies. Ternullo’s deep domain expertise lies in the technical and regulatory complexities of thermal power generation, making her a key resource for mission-critical energy infrastructure acquisitions.
