Jon C Yun

Jon C. Yun serves as Chief of Contracting Officer at U.S. Coast Guard Base Honolulu (70Z034), where he oversees the full lifecycle of acquisition programs critical to maintaining maritime operational readiness. Responsible for planning, soliciting, awarding, and managing contracts, Yun ensures compliance with federal procurement regulations while aligning acquisitions with the Base’s mission to sustain vessel seaworthiness and shore infrastructure integrity. His portfolio primarily encompasses ship repair, vessel systems maintenance, and shore-side facility upgrades, with a strong emphasis on technical procurement in maritime engineering and environmental compliance domains. Yun cultivates strategic partnerships with a diverse pool of vendors specializing in naval maintenance, marine systems integration, and infrastructure remediation. While specific contractor names are not disclosed, his office consistently engages qualified small businesses and mid-tier contractors with proven expertise in Coast Guard-specific operational environments. His contracting approach prioritizes performance-based outcomes, long-term vendor reliability, and technical capability over price alone, fostering collaborative relationships built on accountability and mission alignment. A staunch advocate for small business participation, Yun directs approximately two-thirds of acquisitions toward total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a deliberate commitment to socioeconomic contracting goals. His office routinely awards contracts to HUBZone, SDVOSB, and 8(a) certified firms, particularly in technical service categories where niche capabilities are essential. This pattern underscores a strategic effort to build a resilient, community-based supplier base capable of supporting the Coast Guard’s unique operational demands. Yun’s procurement focus centers on NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing) and 336612 (Boat Building), with significant activity in remediation services (562910) and wireless communications equipment manufacturing (334220). He specializes in acquiring complex marine systems, corrosion control solutions, and shore-based communication infrastructure, demonstrating deep technical fluency in maritime engineering, environmental compliance, and naval electronics integration.
