Douglas Baskin (Alternate POC only)

Douglas Baskin serves as a Contract Specialist within the U.S. Coast Guard’s LOG-9 office (70Z084), where he manages the acquisition of life-cycle support services critical to sustaining shore-based and maritime operational readiness. His responsibilities include planning, soliciting, awarding, and administering contracts for facility maintenance, personnel services, and logistical infrastructure, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations and mission-driven outcomes. Baskin’s portfolio emphasizes non-military, enabling services that support habitability, environmental operations, and training readiness across the Coast Guard’s nationwide footprint. He maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including GILMAN CORPORATION THE, FRONTLINE ENTERPRISES LLC, ISN ALLIANCE LLC, S3 SOLUTIONS ONE LLC, and FAZTEC INDUSTRIES INC, who provide specialized services in facility management, personal support, and transportation logistics. These partnerships reflect a preference for established vendors with proven capacity to deliver scalable, compliant, and mission-responsive solutions under indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) and firm-fixed-price structures. Baskin’s contracting patterns show a strong emphasis on open competition, with 70% of awards issued without set-asides, while maintaining a meaningful 30% commitment to total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. Though he does not prioritize socioeconomically targeted programs like 8(a) or HUBZone, his consistent use of small business set-asides demonstrates a deliberate effort to foster competition and expand vendor diversity within the non-traditional service sectors he supports. His primary procurement focus centers on NAICS codes 721110 (hotels and motels), 812990 (personal services), 531110 (residential lessors), 488490 (road transportation support), and 812199 (personal care services), reflecting a unique specialization in procuring non-traditional, service-oriented solutions that sustain Coast Guard personnel and infrastructure. This expertise underscores his ability to bridge civilian service models with federal operational requirements in environments where conventional defense contracting does not apply.
