Justin Burger

Justin Burger supports the Preparedness SECTION (PRE20) within the Federal Emergency Management Agency by managing procurement activities critical to national resilience and operational readiness. He oversees the acquisition of administrative, technical, and logistical services that strengthen incident management frameworks and emergency response capabilities. His portfolio primarily includes facilities support services, cybersecurity-enabled systems, and specialized equipment supply chains, ensuring FEMA’s workforce and infrastructure remain prepared for complex disasters. He operates within the agency’s broader mission to build sustainable, scalable emergency response capacity through strategic contracting. While specific contractor names are not publicly available, Burger’s procurement patterns reflect consistent engagement with a diverse ecosystem of vendors, including small businesses, service integrators, and technical support providers. His working relationships emphasize performance-based contracting, task order management under indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) vehicles, and vendor collaboration to meet rapidly evolving operational demands. He prioritizes agile, responsive partnerships that align with FEMA’s mission-critical timelines and compliance requirements. Burger demonstrates a strong commitment to socioeconomic contracting, with nearly 57% of his acquisitions structured as small business set-asides—equally split between HUBZone and Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate strategy to expand access for underserved entrepreneurs while maintaining competitive rigor. His contracting approach actively promotes equitable opportunity, aligning with federal mandates to increase participation from HUBZone-certified and other small disadvantaged firms in emergency preparedness initiatives. His primary procurement focus centers on NAICS 561210 (Facilities Support Services), which includes maintenance, logistics coordination, and operational support for emergency response facilities. He also frequently procures services under NAICS 541519 (Other Computer Related Services), particularly for incident management software, data integration tools, and cyber-enabled training platforms. Additional acquisitions include security systems services and specialized equipment wholesale distribution, underscoring his expertise in end-to-end operational readiness solutions.
