Daniel A Bullock

Daniel Bullock serves as a Contracting Officer for the USDA Forest Service, where he leads the acquisition of critical infrastructure and support services essential to maintaining public access to national forest lands. His portfolio centers on construction, maintenance, and ecological support contracts, with a strong emphasis on trail and road rehabilitation, bridge replacement, and campground modernization. Bullock ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while advancing the agency’s mission to sustain resilient forest infrastructure through transparent, efficient contracting practices. He manages a high-volume pipeline of firm-fixed-price and cost-reimbursement contracts, often requiring coordination with engineering, environmental, and land management teams to align procurement outcomes with operational needs. Bullock maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of contractors, including GCS LLC, ACME ASPHALT INDUSTRIES INC, and TwentyoneTwentyseven LLC, all of whom have demonstrated reliability in delivering specialized infrastructure and signage solutions. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes and long-term vendor partnerships, fostering accountability and quality control across project lifecycles. He prioritizes vendors with proven expertise in forest-service-specific environments, ensuring compliance with environmental standards and logistical constraints unique to remote, publicly accessible lands. Bullock’s procurement strategy is uniformly dedicated to small business participation, with 100% of his acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate, agency-aligned commitment to expanding economic opportunity for small, locally based firms capable of meeting the technical and geographic demands of forest infrastructure projects. His consistent use of small business set-asides reinforces the Forest Service’s broader socioeconomic goals and promotes regional economic resilience through targeted contracting. His primary technical focus lies in NAICS 339950 (Sign Manufacturing), where he procures wayfinding signage, informational kiosks, and safety markers critical to visitor safety and resource management. While signage is his dominant category, his acquisitions often integrate with broader civil works and environmental support services, demonstrating expertise in the intersection of public safety infrastructure and ecological stewardship.
