Curtis CJ Chang

Curtis C.J. Chang serves as a Contract Specialist responsible for managing the full lifecycle of federal acquisitions within the environmental services sector. His role encompasses solicitation development, source selection, contract award, and post-award administration, ensuring compliance with FAR regulations and agency mission objectives. He specializes in complex service contracts related to waste management and environmental remediation, frequently handling requirements that demand technical expertise in hazardous and nonhazardous waste treatment systems. Chang’s procurement activities support critical infrastructure and regulatory compliance initiatives, often involving multi-year, performance-based contracts with stringent environmental standards. While specific contractor names are not available, Chang maintains a procurement pattern that prioritizes vendor partnerships with firms possessing specialized technical capabilities in waste treatment, materials recovery, and industrial maintenance. His contracting approach emphasizes competitive bidding and vendor qualification based on technical proficiency, environmental certifications, and operational scalability. He engages with a diverse pool of vendors, including those with experience in incineration, landfill management, and recycling facility operations, fostering relationships grounded in regulatory adherence and performance accountability. Chang demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with 27% of his acquisitions structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. His contracting patterns reflect a deliberate effort to expand opportunities for small businesses in the environmental services sector, though he does not routinely utilize specialized set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. This focus on broad small business eligibility supports workforce development and market competition within niche environmental service markets. His primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 562211 (Hazardous Waste Treatment and Disposal), which accounts for nearly half of his activity, followed by nonhazardous waste treatment (562219) and materials recovery facilities (562920). He also regularly procures services under 811310 for industrial machinery maintenance. Chang’s expertise lies in environmental compliance, waste stream management, and sustainable disposal technologies, making him a key liaison between regulatory requirements and operational execution in the environmental services domain.
