Daniel B. Buckley

Daniel B. Buckley serves as Senior Chief within the U.S. Coast Guard’s LOG-9 organization (Code: 70Z084), where he leads the procurement and contract management of critical facility maintenance and infrastructure support services essential to shore-based operational readiness. In this role, he ensures the acquisition of life-cycle support for mission-critical facilities, including roofing, weatherproofing, and structural integrity systems that sustain personnel safety and mission continuity across coastal and inland waterway installations. His acquisitions are strategically aligned with the Coast Guard’s mandate to maintain habitable, secure, and resilient infrastructure for training, logistics, and tactical operations. Buckley maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including GILMAN CORPORATION THE, FRONTLINE ENTERPRISES LLC, ISN ALLIANCE LLC, S3 SOLUTIONS ONE LLC, and FAZTEC INDUSTRIES INC. These partnerships are characterized by long-term performance reliability, technical proficiency in commercial roofing systems, and adherence to federal construction standards. He favors contractors with demonstrated expertise in complex facility retrofits, membrane roofing applications, and compliance with Department of Defense and Coast Guard environmental and safety protocols. His procurement portfolio reflects a strict preference for full and open competition, with 100% of awards issued under no set-aside classifications. This approach prioritizes technical capability and cost-effectiveness over socioeconomic categorizations, indicating a focus on mission-critical outcomes rather than socioeconomic targets. Buckley’s primary industry focus is exclusively on NAICS 238160 (Roofing Contractors), where he oversees the procurement of commercial and industrial roofing systems, waterproofing membranes, insulation, and related weatherproofing services. His technical expertise lies in the specification and oversight of high-performance roofing solutions designed for harsh maritime environments, ensuring durability against saltwater exposure, extreme weather, and prolonged UV degradation. His work directly supports the Coast Guard’s infrastructure resilience goals through specialized, code-compliant construction services.
