DANIEL T. HOFFMAN

Daniel T. Hoffman serves as a Logistics Management Specialist within the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), where he plays a critical role in managing the acquisition and lifecycle support of mission-critical logistics systems essential to oceanic, atmospheric, and coastal research operations. His responsibilities include planning, soliciting, and administering contracts for technical equipment, data collection infrastructure, and specialized maintenance services that enable NOAA’s scientific missions. He works closely with program managers and technical staff to align procurement strategies with operational needs, ensuring timely delivery of reliable systems that support environmental monitoring, weather forecasting, and marine ecosystem protection. Hoffman maintains established relationships with a diverse set of contractors, including Wisconsin Educational Communications Board, Tronconi Segarra & Associates LLP, JNB Services LLC, Pure Enviro-Management, LLC, and The Regents of the University of Colorado. These partnerships reflect a balanced mix of academic, technical services, and small business vendors, with a focus on firms capable of delivering specialized engineering, environmental management, and data system integration services. His contracting patterns emphasize performance-based outcomes and long-term service sustainment over one-time procurement. His procurement approach prioritizes small business participation, with over one-third of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, and a notable portion allocated to 8(a) competed contracts. This demonstrates a deliberate commitment to socioeconomic goals, fostering opportunities for disadvantaged and minority-owned businesses while maintaining competitive rigor in mission-critical acquisitions. Hoffman’s primary NAICS focus areas include 541990 (Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services) and 541519 (Other Computer-Related Services), reflecting his emphasis on advanced technical support, data systems, and analytical services. He also regularly procures relay and industrial control equipment under 335314 and maintenance services under 811310, underscoring his expertise in sustaining complex environmental monitoring and field instrumentation systems.
