Janice Martin

Janice Martin serves as a Contract Specialist within the 693C73 Eastern Federal Lands Division of the Federal Highway Administration, where she manages the full lifecycle of federal procurement actions for critical transportation infrastructure projects on federally managed lands. Her work directly supports the agency’s mission to maintain safe, resilient, and environmentally compliant highway, bridge, and roadway systems across national forests and public rights-of-way. She specializes in competitive sealed bidding and negotiated acquisitions under FAR Part 14 and Part 15, with a consistent focus on construction services requiring rigorous compliance with environmental, safety, and federal land use regulations. Martin maintains long-standing, collaborative relationships with a core group of experienced contractors including ESTES BROS. CONST. INC., BLUEGRASS CONTRACTING CORP, BRYANT'S LAND AND DEVELOPMENT INDUSTRIES, INC., ECLIPSE COMPANIES, LLC, and ASPEN CONSTRUCTION COMPANY. These partnerships are characterized by consistent performance, technical proficiency in federal land-based construction, and adherence to stringent federal compliance standards. Her procurement approach emphasizes reliability, past performance evaluation, and contractor responsiveness to complex logistical and ecological constraints inherent in federal land projects. All of Martin’s acquisitions are structured as Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a steadfast commitment to maximizing economic opportunity for small businesses within the construction sector. She actively prioritizes small business participation across all socioeconomic categories, ensuring equitable access to federal contracting opportunities while maintaining high standards of quality and accountability. Her portfolio consistently excludes large business participation, reinforcing the agency’s dedication to small business development in rural and federally managed regions. Her procurement focus is exclusively on NAICS 237310—Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction—encompassing earthmoving, pavement installation, drainage systems, bridge rehabilitation, and erosion control. She possesses deep technical expertise in construction specifications, geotechnical requirements, and environmental mitigation measures unique to federal lands, ensuring all awarded contracts deliver infrastructure that meets both public access needs and ecological stewardship objectives.
