George Conway

George Conway serves as a key procurement lead at Tracen PETALUMA (70Z049), a U.S. Coast Guard training and infrastructure facility under the Department of Homeland Security. He is responsible for managing the acquisition of mission-critical construction, facility maintenance, and utility systems that sustain operational readiness and regulatory compliance. His portfolio centers on ensuring safe, modernized training environments through the procurement of specialized infrastructure services, including structural systems, commercial building construction, and water supply networks. Conway plays a vital role in aligning contracting activities with the Coast Guard’s broader sustainment and modernization objectives, ensuring that all acquisitions support long-term operational continuity and safety standards. While specific contractor relationships are not publicly enumerated, Conway’s procurement patterns reflect a consistent engagement with qualified small businesses, particularly those certified under socioeconomic programs. His office maintains a 100% small business set-aside preference across all eligible solicitations, fostering partnerships with firms holding 8(a), HUBZone, and SDVOSB certifications. This approach ensures broad market participation and strengthens the resilience of the Coast Guard’s supply base by prioritizing capacity-building among underserved vendors. Conway’s acquisitions are heavily concentrated in three primary NAICS categories: 238120 for structural steel and precast concrete work, 236220 for commercial and institutional building construction, and 221310 for water supply and irrigation systems. These reflect a technical focus on durable infrastructure, facility modernization, and utility reliability—core enablers of Coast Guard training operations. His expertise lies in managing complex, code-compliant projects that require adherence to federal construction standards and environmental regulations, ensuring that all procurements deliver mission-ready, long-term assets.
