Kameron Sam

Kameron Sam serves as a key procurement lead within the Csa Northwest 2 USDA-FS, supporting the U.S. Forest Service’s mission to sustain forest health and maintain critical infrastructure across remote and rural landscapes. Responsible for managing janitorial and facility support contracts, Sam ensures that ranger stations, visitor centers, and operational facilities receive consistent, high-quality cleaning and maintenance services essential to public safety and environmental stewardship. Their procurement activities are narrowly focused on service-based acquisitions aligned with field-level operational needs, with an emphasis on timely, compliant, and mission-driven contract execution under FAR Part 12 and Part 19 frameworks. Sam maintains long-standing relationships with a select group of contractors, including RELIANCE CONTRACTORS INC, TIMBERLINE SILVICS INC, L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED, SHELTON NANCY, and BLACK BOX SAFETY, INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established local and regional vendors with proven experience in maintaining federal facilities under challenging environmental conditions. The working relationships are characterized by consistent recompetition, performance-based evaluations, and a focus on reliability, compliance, and responsiveness to field demands. All procurement actions managed by Sam are fully set-aside for small businesses under FAR 19.5, reflecting a 100% commitment to small business participation. This deliberate strategy ensures equitable access to federal opportunities for small, locally based firms, reinforcing the Forest Service’s broader socioeconomic goals and community engagement objectives. No other set-aside categories are utilized, underscoring a singular focus on small business empowerment within the service sector. The procurement portfolio is exclusively governed by NAICS 561720 (Janitorial Services), indicating deep specialization in custodial, sanitation, waste management, and facility upkeep services tailored to federal land management sites. Sam’s expertise lies in evaluating service quality, safety compliance, and operational continuity—particularly in high-traffic or ecologically sensitive areas—ensuring that contracted services align with Forest Service environmental standards and public access priorities.
