Jeremy Cable

Jeremy Cable serves as a procurement professional within the USDA Forest Service’s CSA East 7 unit, supporting the operational and maintenance needs of national forest lands. He manages acquisitions critical to sustaining forest ecosystems and enabling public access, focusing on support activities that ensure the functionality of ranger districts, infrastructure, and environmental compliance systems. His portfolio centers on service-based contracts requiring technical expertise in forestry operations, including vegetation management, trail maintenance, fire prevention support, and ecological restoration services. He plays a pivotal role in aligning procurement decisions with the Forest Service’s mission of long-term land stewardship and public safety. Jeremy collaborates with a broad range of vendors specializing in forestry support services, including contractors with field-based capabilities in equipment operation, hazardous fuel reduction, and ecological monitoring. While no specific contractor relationships are currently identified, his procurement patterns suggest consistent engagement with firms possessing demonstrated experience in federal land management support, often requiring OMB Circular A-76 compliance, environmental permitting knowledge, and adherence to USDA-specific operational standards. His working relationships emphasize performance-based outcomes and contract oversight aligned with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) guidelines for service contracts. Jeremy’s contracting activity reflects a 100% preference for non-set-aside procurements, indicating a focus on open competition rather than socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. This approach prioritizes technical capability and operational readiness over socioeconomic criteria, though small businesses remain eligible participants under full and open competition. His pattern suggests a mission-driven emphasis on service quality and scalability over targeted socioeconomic outcomes. His primary procurement focus is exclusively under NAICS 115310—Support Activities for Forestry—encompassing services like forest inventory, prescribed burning support, invasive species control, and forest road maintenance. He requires contractors with specialized expertise in ecological restoration, wildland fire support, and federal land use compliance, demonstrating deep domain knowledge in sustainable forest management practices under USDA guidelines.
