David Boehm

David Boehm serves as a Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) for the USDA Forest Service–SPOC NW, providing critical oversight of acquisition programs aligned with the agency’s mission to sustain and restore national forest ecosystems. In this role, he ensures contract compliance, performance evaluation, and technical alignment for infrastructure and ecological restoration projects, including trail and bridge rehabilitation, wildfire resilience infrastructure, and reforestation efforts. Boehm works closely with contracting officers and field personnel to validate deliverables, manage scope changes, and enforce performance standards, ensuring that procurements directly support public safety, resource conservation, and sustainable recreation access across remote forest lands. While specific contractor names are not available, Boehm’s oversight focuses on building collaborative partnerships with specialized vendors capable of delivering complex, field-based forestry support services. He engages primarily with small, regionally rooted firms possessing expertise in ecological restoration, timber harvesting support, and remote facility maintenance. His working relationships emphasize technical proficiency, environmental stewardship, and the ability to operate in challenging, low-access terrains, fostering long-term vendor engagement grounded in performance reliability and regulatory compliance. Boehm demonstrates a strong, consistent commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with 100% of his acquisitions designated as HUBZone set-asides. This pattern reflects a deliberate strategy to prioritize economic development in historically underserved rural communities, particularly those adjacent to national forests. By directing contracts to HUBZone-certified businesses, he actively supports job creation and capacity building in areas most affected by forest management activities, reinforcing the agency’s equity and community resilience goals. His procurement focus is exclusively centered on NAICS 115310—Support Activities for Forestry—encompassing services such as vegetation management, erosion control, invasive species mitigation, and forest infrastructure maintenance. Boehm’s technical expertise lies in evaluating contractor capabilities for ecological restoration, wildfire mitigation, and sustainable trail systems, ensuring all acquisitions align with federal environmental standards and Forest Service operational protocols.
