Jeremy Bedner

Jeremy Bedner serves as a Contract Specialist within the U.S. Coast Guard’s LOG-9 organization (70Z084), where he plays a critical role in executing life-cycle support acquisitions that sustain shore-based and maritime operational readiness. He manages the full spectrum of procurement activities for environmental, waste management, and facility support services, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and mission-critical standards. His acquisitions are primarily focused on solid waste collection and related environmental services, directly supporting the Coast Guard’s commitment to operational sustainability and environmental stewardship across its national footprint. Bedner maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of experienced contractors, including GILMAN CORPORATION THE, FRONTLINE ENTERPRISES LLC, ISN ALLIANCE LLC, S3 SOLUTIONS ONE LLC, and FAZTEC INDUSTRIES INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for vendors with proven expertise in hazardous and non-hazardous waste handling, logistics coordination, and compliance-driven environmental services. His contracting approach emphasizes reliability, regulatory adherence, and performance-based outcomes, fostering long-term vendor collaboration grounded in clear statement of work definitions and rigorous oversight. While the majority of his acquisitions are conducted as unrestricted procurements (73.7%), Bedner actively supports small business participation through Total Small Business Set-Asides (26.3%), aligning with FAR 19.5 guidelines. He demonstrates a deliberate focus on enabling small business access to federal opportunities without relying on specialized socioeconomic programs such as 8(a) or HUBZone, prioritizing broad-based small business eligibility in competitive environments. His technical domain is exclusively centered on NAICS 562111 (Solid Waste Collection), reflecting deep specialization in waste management services essential to Coast Guard facility operations. He procures comprehensive collection, transportation, treatment, and disposal services for both routine and mission-critical waste streams, ensuring environmental compliance and public health standards are met across coastal and inland installations.
