Jacob Curtiss

Jacob S. Curtiss supports the Defense Logistics Agency’s Disposition Services – EBS in managing the acquisition of critical services related to the lifecycle management of excess and surplus Department of Defense property. He oversees contracting activities centered on the repair, maintenance, and environmentally compliant disposal of military equipment, with a strong emphasis on material handling equipment (MHE) services, industrial waste treatment, and site remediation.

Curtiss maintains consistent working relationships with key contractors including VERGARA AG SERVICE INC, ECO BRIGHT SOLUTIONS LLC, KROSS WHOLESALE TIRE CO INC, STG KOREA INC., and AVIATE ENTERPRISES, INC., all of which provide specialized expertise in machinery maintenance, waste handling, and industrial logistics. These vendor partnerships reflect a preference for established service providers with proven capabilities in heavy equipment repair, nonhazardous waste processing, and facility support operations. His contracting approach prioritizes reliability, technical proficiency, and adherence to federal environmental standards. His procurement patterns show a strong inclination toward open competition, with 63.1% of awards issued without set-aside restrictions. However, he actively supports small business participation, with nearly 37% of contracts awarded under Total Small Business and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-asides, demonstrating a balanced commitment to socioeconomic goals while maintaining operational efficiency.

He also procures services under NAICS 562219 (Other Nonhazardous Waste Treatment and Disposal) and 562119 (Other Waste Collection), reflecting deep expertise in industrial environmental compliance and material recovery systems.
