Greg Landin

Greg Landin serves as a Technical Representative for the Willamette National Forest under the U.S. Forest Service, where he provides critical technical oversight for procurement actions supporting ecological restoration and infrastructure resilience. His role bridges operational needs with acquisition execution, ensuring that contracts align with forest management priorities such as wildfire mitigation, trail and road maintenance, and habitat restoration. Landin specializes in evaluating technical proposals, validating contractor capabilities, and ensuring compliance with environmental and safety standards for federally funded projects. He primarily supports acquisitions involving specialized environmental services, logistical support, and field-based technical operations essential to sustaining federal forest lands. Landin maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including Brink Brothers Inc., Granite Commercial Service LLC, Project RAM Innovations LLC, and Peak Environmental LLC. These vendors are selected for their proven expertise in ecological restoration, forest infrastructure maintenance, and remote-area logistics. His procurement approach emphasizes long-term vendor partnerships grounded in technical proficiency, regulatory compliance, and operational reliability. He collaborates closely with these firms to tailor solutions that meet the unique challenges of managing forested federal lands, often requiring adaptive, site-specific execution. Landin’s procurement portfolio is entirely structured under Total Small Business Set-Aside authority per FAR 19.5, reflecting a steadfast commitment to expanding economic opportunity for small businesses in rural and ecological service sectors. He prioritizes contracting with small businesses capable of delivering specialized environmental and logistical services, ensuring that federal investment directly supports local economies and diverse ownership structures. His pattern of awarding nearly all contracts under small business set-asides underscores a strategic alignment with federal socioeconomic goals. His primary procurement focus is centered on NAICS 481212, Nonscheduled Chartered Freight Air Transportation, reflecting the agency’s reliance on aerial logistics for delivering personnel, equipment, and suppression resources to remote, inaccessible areas. This specialization demands expertise in aviation safety, terrain-specific operational planning, and emergency response coordination, positioning Landin as a technical authority in airborne support for forest management operations.
