Joseph Wingfield

Joseph Wingfield serves as a key procurement lead within the USDA Forest Service, supporting the agency’s mission to maintain and enhance national forest infrastructure through strategic acquisition of construction and ecological support services. He manages a diverse portfolio of contracts focused on transportation, recreation, and resource management systems, including trail and road rehabilitation, bridge replacement, and campground modernization. His work ensures compliance with federal acquisition regulations while aligning procurement decisions with the Forest Service’s operational priorities for public safety and environmental resilience. Wingfield typically handles complex, multi-year construction and engineering acquisitions requiring technical oversight and interagency coordination. Wingfield maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including GCS LLC, ACME ASPHALT INDUSTRIES INC, and TwentyoneTwentyseven LLC, all of which have demonstrated expertise in heavy civil infrastructure and forest-specific construction. His procurement approach favors established vendors with proven track records in remote-site execution, environmental compliance, and durable materials application. These partnerships reflect a preference for contractors experienced in federal land management environments, often requiring specialized logistics and ecological mitigation protocols. His contracting patterns show a strong preference for open competition, with 69% of awards issued without set-asides, indicating a focus on broad market engagement. However, he actively supports small business participation, with 17.2% of awards designated as total small business set-asides and 13.8% allocated to HUBZone firms, reflecting a balanced commitment to socioeconomic goals alongside mission-critical delivery needs. Wingfield’s procurement focus centers on NAICS 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction) and 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction), with significant activity in water and sewer infrastructure (237110) and forestry support services (115310). He routinely procures services related to road stabilization, erosion control, trail surfacing, and electrical systems for remote facilities, demonstrating deep technical familiarity with federal land management construction standards and environmental regulatory frameworks.
