Joshua Holmes

Joshua Holmes serves as a key procurement lead at U.S. Coast Guard Base Miami (70Z028), responsible for managing facility sustainment and infrastructure support contracts critical to operational readiness. He oversees the acquisition of maintenance, repair, and modernization services that ensure the functionality of maritime facilities, vessel maintenance infrastructure, and base operations. His portfolio focuses on mission-critical services that directly support national security, search and rescue, and port safety missions, with an emphasis on long-term asset resilience and regulatory compliance under federal acquisition regulations. Holmes maintains consistent relationships with a select group of contractors including MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, PHOENIX MARINE LLC, ATZ SOLUTION LLC, and COMMERCIAL BLUE INC, all of whom specialize in facility maintenance, marine infrastructure support, and environmental compliance services. His contracting approach favors established vendors with demonstrated expertise in maritime facility operations and federal compliance, fostering long-term partnerships grounded in performance reliability and regulatory adherence. He exhibits a 100% commitment to small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, ensuring that all solicitations are reserved exclusively for small businesses, thereby advancing the Coast Guard’s socioeconomic goals and promoting equitable access to federal contracting opportunities. This pattern reflects a deliberate strategy to cultivate a robust small business vendor base capable of delivering high-quality, mission-aligned services across the base’s operational footprint. His procurement activity is exclusively focused on NAICS 812331 — Linen Supply — indicating a specialized operational need for institutional laundry, uniform management, and textile services to support Coast Guard personnel and facilities. This narrow focus underscores his expertise in non-traditional but mission-essential service acquisition, where hygiene, regulatory compliance, and logistical reliability are paramount to sustaining daily operations.
