Donna J. Boehm

Donna J. Boehm serves as a key procurement professional within the Mount Hood National Forest, supporting the U.S. Forest Service’s mission of sustainable forest management and public infrastructure resilience. She manages a diverse portfolio of acquisitions focused on ecological restoration, transportation infrastructure, and operational support services critical to maintaining public access and forest safety. Her work directly enables mission-critical activities such as road and bridge maintenance, trail system upkeep, and forest management support, ensuring compliance with federal contracting regulations and environmental stewardship goals. Boehm routinely handles contracts under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, prioritizing technical precision and long-term operational sustainability in every procurement decision. Her contractor relationships center on specialized firms delivering forestry support services, civil construction, and signage solutions. She regularly collaborates with small businesses and experienced specialty trade contractors capable of operating in remote, ecologically sensitive environments. Her procurement approach emphasizes vendor reliability, environmental compliance, and the ability to meet stringent safety and accessibility standards required in national forest operations. While no single contractor dominates her portfolio, she fosters enduring partnerships with firms demonstrating proven expertise in forest service contexts and a commitment to responsible resource stewardship. Boehm demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with nearly 50% of her acquisitions structured as full and open competition, while 40% are set aside for total small business participation under FAR 19.5 and an additional 10% competitively awarded to 8(a) certified firms. This balanced approach ensures broad market access while prioritizing opportunities for disadvantaged small businesses aligned with the agency’s equity and inclusion goals. Her contracting patterns reflect a deliberate effort to cultivate a diverse supplier base capable of meeting the unique demands of federal land management. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 115310 (Support Activities for Forestry), encompassing vegetation management, wildfire mitigation support, and ecological monitoring services. She also regularly procures highway and bridge construction (237310), sign manufacturing (339950), and specialty trade contracting (238990, 238190) to maintain infrastructure integrity across the forest’s expansive and rugged terrain. Boehm’s expertise lies in aligning technical specifications with ecological and safety requirements, ensuring that every acquisition supports the long-term resilience of Mount Hood’s public lands.
