Danielle M. DeVillier

Danielle M. DeVillier serves as a Purchasing Agent for the SFLC Procurement Branch 2 (70Z085) within the U.S. Coast Guard’s Department of Homeland Security, where she plays a pivotal role in executing acquisitions critical to the sustainment and modernization of the Coast Guard’s maritime fleet. Her responsibilities encompass the full lifecycle procurement of shipbuilding, repair, and maintenance services for cutters and naval vessels, ensuring operational readiness across coastal, offshore, and open-ocean missions. She manages complex contract actions under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, coordinating with engineering, logistics, and program management teams to align procurement outcomes with strategic readiness goals. DeVillier maintains longstanding relationships with key industrial partners including ROLLS-ROYCE SOLUTIONS AMERICA INC, VIGOR MARINE LLC, JAG INDUSTRIAL SERVICES, INC, G I INDUSTRIAL-MARINE, LLC, and L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED. These contractors provide specialized marine engineering, dry-dock services, propulsion system upgrades, and structural repair capabilities essential to vessel integrity. Her procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and technical compliance, fostering collaborative partnerships with vendors who demonstrate proven expertise in naval shipyard operations and Coast Guard-specific operational requirements. A strong advocate for small business participation, DeVillier consistently applies Total Small Business Set-Aside authorities under FAR 19.5, directing approximately 85.7% of her acquisitions to small businesses. This reflects a deliberate strategy to cultivate a resilient industrial base of qualified maritime service providers and promote economic opportunity within the defense supply chain. Her contracting patterns prioritize socioeconomic programs that enhance competition and innovation among small, disadvantaged, and veteran-owned firms. Her procurement portfolio is exclusively focused on NAICS 336611 — Ship Building and Repairing — encompassing hull modifications, propulsion system overhauls, electrical and navigation system integrations, and corrosion control services. DeVillier’s technical expertise lies in the lifecycle management of naval vessels, ensuring that all acquisitions meet U.S. Coast Guard engineering standards and maritime safety regulations.
