Derrell L. Green

Derrell L. Green serves as a key procurement professional within the SFLC Procurement Branch 3 (00040), part of the U.S. Coast Guard under the Department of Homeland Security. He is responsible for managing complex acquisitions that sustain and modernize the Coast Guard’s maritime fleet, ensuring operational readiness through shipbuilding, repair, and maintenance services. His work directly supports the agency’s mission of vessel lifecycle management, focusing on contracts that enhance the durability, safety, and efficiency of cutters and related infrastructure. Green typically handles sole-source, competitive, and set-aside procurements under FAR Part 13 and Part 14, with an emphasis on shipyard services, marine systems, and mission-critical support solutions. He maintains longstanding relationships with core contractors including Philadelphia Electrical Equipment Co., JDCI Enterprises, Inc., ALS Services USA, Corp., Cabras Marine Corporation, and Bay Marine Boatworks, Inc.—all of which provide specialized marine engineering, vessel repair, and technical support services. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven maritime expertise and facility certifications, often engaging them through task orders under blanket purchase agreements or indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contracts. His contracting approach prioritizes reliability, compliance with Coast Guard technical specifications, and timely delivery in high-priority operational environments. Green demonstrates a strong commitment to small business participation, with approximately 90.9% of his awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This pattern underscores a deliberate strategy to cultivate capacity among small, maritime-adjacent firms and promote equitable access to federal procurement opportunities. His portfolio consistently prioritizes socioeconomic programs aligned with the Coast Guard’s broader diversity and resilience goals. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing), with secondary activity in apparel manufacturing, graphic design, machinery leasing, and professional training services. This reflects a broad support ecosystem for fleet operations, including uniform procurement, visual communications, and workforce development—all essential to sustaining a ready and responsive maritime force.
