Jolyn Goss

JoLyn Goss serves as a Contract Specialist at the Denver Federal Center under the Bureau of Reclamation, where she manages the acquisition of critical water infrastructure and environmental services essential to federal water resource management across the western United States. Her responsibilities include soliciting, evaluating, and awarding contracts for technical services and heavy civil works, ensuring compliance with federal procurement regulations and agency mission priorities. She routinely handles complex procurements in environmental consulting, hydraulic engineering, and operational support systems, aligning acquisitions with the Bureau’s goals of infrastructure modernization, hydrologic data collection, and ecosystem restoration. Goss maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including AECOM Technical Services, Inc., BenchLab LLC, and Frontier Precision Inc., who provide specialized environmental monitoring, geospatial analysis, and precision instrumentation services. She also engages with niche vendors such as BMACK Interpreting L.L.C. and Royal Media Network, Inc., reflecting a balanced approach that combines large technical firms with specialized service providers. Her procurement patterns indicate a preference for established partners with proven technical capabilities in water resource management, while maintaining flexibility to incorporate innovative small business solutions. Her contracting activity reflects a strong commitment to small business participation, with 42.9% of awards structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, demonstrating active support for socioeconomic programs. While no set-aside preferences dominate, her consistent use of small business set-asides signals a deliberate strategy to foster competition and expand vendor diversity within the water resources sector. Goss’s primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 541620 (Environmental Consulting Services), followed by 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction) and 541990 (Other Professional Services). She specializes in acquiring services related to water quality analysis, hydraulic structure assessments, and ecosystem restoration planning, with additional support for mixed-mode transit systems and precision manufacturing. Her technical domain expertise lies at the intersection of environmental science, civil engineering, and federal water policy.
