Emily Fishbein

Emily Fishbein serves as a key procurement professional within U.S. Transportation Command (USTransCom), supporting the agency’s global mobility mission through the acquisition of critical expeditionary logistics services. She manages contracting actions focused on marine cargo handling and port operations, ensuring the timely and efficient movement of military personnel, equipment, and sustainment supplies across air, sea, and land domains. Her work directly enables theater access and operational readiness by securing specialized services that support port throughput, terminal operations, and rapid deployment infrastructure. Fishbein’s acquisitions are primarily performance-based, emphasizing contract delivery orders for mission-critical logistics execution. She maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced maritime and aviation logistics contractors, including UNCOMN LLC, PHOENIX AIR GROUP, INC., RAMPART AVIATION, LLC, FANCIULLI EGISTO S.R.L., and MOUNTAIN AVIATION, LLC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in global cargo handling, port terminal support, and expeditionary logistics solutions. Fishbein’s contracting approach prioritizes operational reliability and domain-specific capability, often selecting contractors with established track records in military and defense-supported port environments. Fishbein’s procurement portfolio exhibits no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic emphasis on maximizing vendor competition and technical capability over socioeconomic categorization, aligning with USTransCom’s mission-critical need for rapid, scalable, and globally capable logistics support. While small business participation is not formally incentivized through set-asides, vendors of all sizes compete on technical merit and operational readiness. Her primary procurement focus is exclusively under NAICS 488320 (Marine Cargo Handling), indicating deep specialization in the loading, unloading, storage, and movement of military cargo at seaports and terminals. She procures services involving heavy-lift equipment, container handling systems, port security integration, and expeditionary cargo transfer operations, demonstrating technical expertise in maritime logistics and global supply chain enablers essential to DoD mobility operations.
