Dalton Bundy (Technical POC)

Dalton Bundy serves as the Technical Point of Contact for the Csa East 1 USDA-FS, supporting the U.S. Forest Service’s mission to sustain national forest infrastructure and ecological resilience through operational contracting. While not a contracting officer, Bundy plays a critical role in defining technical requirements, evaluating vendor capabilities, and ensuring compliance with operational standards for facilities and resource management services. He is instrumental in shaping solicitations and assessing proposals for mission-critical support functions, particularly those involving remote site operations, wildfire mitigation, and sanitation systems in federally managed wilderness areas. His work directly informs acquisition planning and ensures technical alignment between contractor deliverables and field-level needs. Bundy maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including M & D Forestry Service LLC, Franklin’s Services Unlimited Inc., and RX Fire Effects LLC. These partnerships are rooted in specialized expertise in forested land maintenance, prescribed burn support, and ecological restoration services. His procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor reliability, proven field performance, and adaptability to dynamic environmental conditions. He collaborates closely with contractors during pre-solicitation outreach and post-award performance reviews to ensure operational continuity and safety compliance in high-risk, remote environments. Bundy’s acquisition portfolio is exclusively set aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5, reflecting a firm commitment to socioeconomic inclusion and rural economic development. All procurements are structured to maximize opportunities for small business participation, with no awards issued to large businesses. This pattern underscores the agency’s dedication to empowering locally rooted, service-disabled, and HUBZone-certified firms capable of delivering essential support in underserved forest regions. His primary focus lies in NAICS 561210 (Facilities Support Services), encompassing waste management, trail and facility maintenance, visitor center operations, and wildfire-related infrastructure support. Bundy’s technical expertise centers on field-deployed logistics, environmental sanitation systems, and ecological service delivery—ensuring that contracted services align with the Forest Service’s land stewardship and public safety mandates.
