Daniel Smith

Daniel Smith supports the U.S. Coast Guard Base Seattle (70Z033) in executing critical facility and infrastructure procurement activities essential to operational readiness. Though his formal title is not specified, his role centers on managing acquisition programs for specialized industrial equipment and maintenance services that sustain maritime infrastructure. He oversees the solicitation, evaluation, and award of contracts for engineered systems, including lubrication and power equipment, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and mission-critical timelines. His work directly enables the agency’s ability to maintain vessel support facilities, utilities, and environmental compliance systems across coastal operations. Smith maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors, including VCloud Gov Inc., Astrallic Inc., M.B.A. ADHC LLC, Victory Contracting LLC, and John’s Waterproofing Co. These vendors are regularly engaged for technical services related to mechanical systems, facility upgrades, and industrial maintenance. His procurement approach favors established, technically proficient firms with demonstrated capability in niche industrial domains, reflecting a preference for proven performance over broad-spectrum vendors. His contracting activity shows no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This indicates a focus on technical merit and mission urgency rather than socioeconomic preferences, aligning with the agency’s need for specialized, non-commoditized services that require specific expertise. Smith’s procurement focus is heavily concentrated in NAICS 333618 (Other Engine Equipment Manufacturing), accounting for 75% of activity, and NAICS 324191 (Petroleum Lubricating Oil and Grease Manufacturing), at 25%. These categories reflect his specialization in procuring industrial lubrication systems, engine components, and related maintenance supplies critical to Coast Guard vessel and facility operations. His domain expertise lies in mechanical and industrial engineering support services, ensuring the reliability of high-demand maritime infrastructure.
