Hans Ohme

Hans Ohme serves as a key procurement lead within the USDA Forest Service, overseeing acquisitions critical to operational readiness in remote and ecologically sensitive environments. His work centers on securing specialized services that enable wildfire response, ecological restoration, and infrastructure resilience across national forests and grasslands. He manages a portfolio of contracts focused on logistical support, personnel deployment, and mission-critical aviation services, ensuring the agency maintains rapid mobilization capacity in rugged terrain. His procurement approach aligns with the Forest Service’s mission to sustain public lands while prioritizing agility, safety, and environmental stewardship. Ohme maintains consistent partnerships with a select group of contractors including ACI FEDERAL INC, ONE STOP RECRUITING LLC, GONDO ROY E MD, THE LOCUMS CO, LLC, and AMD INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGIES LLC. These vendors provide specialized staffing, medical support, and air transportation services essential for field operations. His contracting patterns reflect a preference for firms with proven experience in federal land management contexts, particularly those capable of deploying personnel and assets on short notice under challenging conditions. Relationships are characterized by recurring task orders and long-term service agreements built on reliability and mission alignment. Ohme demonstrates an unwavering commitment to small business participation, directing 100% of his procurements under the Small Business Set-Aside program (FAR 19.5). All awards are reserved exclusively for small businesses, ensuring equitable access to federal contracting opportunities and fostering economic development in rural and underserved communities. This approach reinforces the Forest Service’s broader socioeconomic goals while enhancing contractor diversity and innovation in mission-critical support functions. His primary procurement focus is on NAICS 481211 — Nonscheduled Chartered Passenger Air Transportation — reflecting his specialization in air ambulance, personnel transport, and wildfire suppression aviation services. He procures time-sensitive, on-demand air operations that support firefighter deployments, medical evacuations, and ecological monitoring in inaccessible regions, requiring deep technical understanding of FAA-compliant aviation logistics and emergency response protocols.
